Last time I flipped off a cage (on a big city freeway), the SOB tried to push me into a concrete divider in his F-350. Heck, I thought I was a jerk. I followed him hoping he'd exit, but that diesel had more range than me. I was sorely tempted to ventilate his new truck for him, but most prisons won't letyou bring a bike.[:@]

Yesterday, I had some bozo in a mini-van toss a cup full ofsoft drink out the window, cup and all. It was raining and I had my wet suit on so I didn't get to wet. There are no limits tohow ignorant people can be.

Wikipedia defines: A vigilante is a person or persons who ignore due process enacting their own form of justice when they deem the response of the authorities to be insufficient.

If congress wanted to make this legal, I would definately support it.

The cleverness of this concept is beyond reproach.

Had a semi loose a driveshaft in front of me once. Now talk about something that would get your attention !!!! I never ride directly behind any large trucks anymore. Kept thinking what could have happened if I was closer to the semi when the shaft came ripping out the back end. I think that would definently have left a mark or two......... I did see the after effects of a tread from a semi tire come off and what was left of the cager it hit. It actually pealed back the rooffrom the windshield to the back seat area of the cager. Again, another reason to give all large trucks plenty of space........

Flying driveshaft --now that is scary. I'm with you, I "let them truckers roll" way ahead of me.

Glad to hearyour wifeis okay and riding again. I don't know how people can sleep at night afterdriving away like that. I give your wife a lot of credit, it took me a few weeks to get back on my bike after I hit the pavement and busted a thumb and collarbone. I was real hesitant but after 10 miles or so, I was feeling confident again.

1/4" Stainless stell ball bearings, if bounced the right way, well you would have to be there.
