I love how he stopped to chat with the truck driver about his unsignaled lane change -- as if he's the one causing the hazard! :D

Still, fun to watch!

This asshole is just begging to get hit I swear. I don't mind lane splitting but this guy is a douche.

He will die soon. Like the 20 or so people who died here in Rhode Island this summer thanks to being idiots on bikes, 90 percent no helmets.

He was using the rev limiter like a horn. Its no different really than harley riders just turning on their straight pipe bikes....

I speak portugeuse and recognize his accent. Yes he is a squid and was calling every other person a CARALHO which means dick/asshole

He was a little amusing with his diatribe about how this is his city. Realistically I dont know how many of you have driven in Sao Paolo or in a European city but lane splitting traffic on side streets and street corners and sidewalks etc is VERY commonplace. I was riding a 50CC motobecane like that when I was 9 trough the streets of Sao Paolo and Buenos Aires. My vespa in later years was a little more nimble.

Again I do think he was an idiot for abusing his valvetrain like that but the honking and aggressiveness isnt rare.


Hell The 101 and 405 in the early 90s when I lived there werent too far off.

Well, technically, the unsignaled lane change is the real hazard. If the guy had signaled then the problem would have been easily averted.


I watched the video and didn't see anything wrong. When I watched the video it reminded of me what it's like to ride my bicycle on campus (Actually far more difficult than what he was doing but the perspective is similar at times). I thought he did fine... Although, I questioned his gas mileage.

I kept waiting for somebody to stick a pipe or piece of wood out of the window.

What a dickscarf. Like the guy who merged onto the freeway a couple days ago doing 100+ on a sportbike wearing flip-flops, shorts, a wife beater and backwards baseball cap.

cutting corners and red lights by going on the side walk is something I've noticed only in Italy (never been in iberia though).
