Default Cager nearly got the wife and I!

In 2003 I was T-Boned by a red light runner doing 51 MPH not only did it screw me up but the family had a difficult time also. But I have since healed and began riding again after 5 major surgeries!
This past saturday evening the wife and I were on our way back home on one of our 55 mph highways. As we approached an intersection controled by a light we saw a car waiting to turn, so I thought. Had that strange feeling so I began to slow down, once in the intersection they turned in front of us! I hit my rear and began working the fronts, missed the rear of the car by inches. After a few FBombs I made a U-turn to follow the person. I found the car parked in a driveway and the young female was standing outside talking to a young dude. I asked the two who was driving the car but neither one would answer so I walked past them and knocked on the door. This lady answered the door, I asked her who was driving the car that was in her driveway. She seemed to sense something was wrong so she asked if I would speak with her husband who was inside the garage. I heard the garage door opening so we went to the front of it only to find a couple Harleys parked inside. The husband asked what was going on so I explained what had happened. He asked the girl who happened to be his sons girlfriend if she had been done what we said. Her answer was "yeah but nothing happened" The father came unglued on her and told his son that she was never welcomed at their home ever again, told her to get into her car and leave his property! The father then asked us to pull our bike inside and stay for dinner!

The sad part of all this is the girl really didn't learn anything. Her attitude will get some biker killed while she drives off uncaring. glad you and the wife are ok.

If I was that guy's father, I'd be pissed at my son for appearently not thinking it was a big deal. Glad to hear it turned out the way it did, though.

I'd like to shake that Father's hand and buy him a few thousand beers.

I'm glad that girl got a ration of what was coming to her. Too many people just don't care anymore and I admired the stance of the father (but not of the son). Thanks for sharing this story.

She said nothing happened, no big deal? Man what a self centered little biotch. I'm glad to hear you weren't hit, and the father was cool.
