Driver intentionally hits motorcyclist and doesn't care

i think Humpy is now trying to act like he was trolling all along (if he wasn't) just so that he won't seem like that much more of an idiot if he was in fact serious the whole time.

Some posts were serious and some obviously weren't. :|

Christ, so many people around here can't deal with anything but strict absolutes. You fuckers need to stick to the techy parts of AT were binary thinking is applauded.

I will admit that taking a nuanced stand in ATOT is pretty idiotic on my part and overall this thread isn't the kind of shit that I'm interested in reading here.

Then do us a favor and...

Hard to be "nuanced" when all we see is "<retarded trolling dribble>".

It's exceeding hard to tell the difference between an opinion and playing devil's advocate in text. Especially with some of the mental giants that waft through here at times.
 
It wasn't lanesplitting. He was making a pass.

I don't care either. It was an illegal pass, I don't have any sympathy for people injured as a direct result of breaking the law.


..wtf...so it's worth killing a human because of your general inconvenience and misanthropy? I mean, keep that shit to yourself and all and hate humans all you want. When you step over the line, you become a danger.

Seek help. Seriously.

Wow. You must have really been blown out of this argument completely if you had to resort to calling people nerds on ATOT.

This is probably been mentioned 50 times already, but you can't just decide to enforce the law on your own by attempting to kill two people. The double lined road was as flat and straight as any dotted road I've ever seen in upstate NY.
See someone with expired registration? KILL THEM!
See someone who may be talking on their cell phone? KILL THEM!
No front plate? KILL THEM!!!!

You really have to be a half-wit to attempt to defend this old fool.
 
Not going to lie, I'm in about... 80% agreeance here. You are asking for trouble EVERY time you break the law. You doing illegal acts is basically acceptance "I could get in big trouble here, possibly injured - directly related to my illegal actions". However, that doesn't excuse the OTHER driver's behavior either, so I think both should have the book tossed at them.



By whom? The broke ass dude that was a dick? Yeah, have fun trying to take nothing.
If he has sufficient auto insurance, they will pay out, no?
 
I have to ask you this, in your tiny little mind are there degrees of crimes? In other words, is someone who passes over double yellows as bad as someone who steals a loaf of bread? Or robs a bank? Or as someone who molests children? Or as someone who murders?

I'm curious why you are so angered by these riders who are clearly committing a minor traffic infraction that they deserve to be maimed or killed by some jackass who clearly hit them intentionally.

He has never once sped in his life, nor has he jaywalked.
If he did, he'd feel it would be justified if he were run over by a car who purposely swerved into him to teach him justice for breaking the law.
 
What you are arguing is, motorcyclists should be exempt from the rules of the road?

I've very nearly killed motorcyclists on the road because they were driving ridiculously beyond the limits and believed they were safe riders riding within their ability. So, kindly put, fuck your attitude 😛 If they truly stressed safety, they would be driving within the speed limit and not pass on a double-yellow. Stop lying to yourself.

What the driver of the car did here was wrong, but your attitude is wrong too. Don't excuse yourself or your ways.

The difference with your situation is that you did not purposely go out of your way to aim and hit the bikers, right?
If you had hit them while continuing to drive normally, no one would shed a tear for the bikers.
 
What an asshole. The guy thinks he's entitled to enforce laws and won't apologize for attempted murder because the victim was 'doing something illegal'.

I'm not sorry for trying to kill that little girl with my SUV. I mean, she shouldn't have been jaywalking.

This old man is likely senile, racist, and angry at the world.
Ok, senile and angry I can get behind but lets not start this.
 
It fell out of the wheel well/under the hood/where ever it was hiding inside the car when it started.

😱

certainly possible, could be someone tossed it out. Honestly, I replayed that video dozens of times because funny stuff happened around that kitten appearing, but the frame jumping was just poor video, really.

Only odd thing, after tracking it, is that the kitten is suddenly there after the red car clears the intersection....then it's tossed around a bit. the video jumps a bit, but doesn't look crazy at that point. I dunno. no expert here.

The person who saved the cat replied on reddit:

Yes, it's hard to tell in the YT video but he does fall directly from the red car that travels across the intersection.

Bonus pic.

New video released, Motorcyclist goes right into oncoming traffic.
Gets all up in that pussy in front of dozens of cars in opposing lane

Infuriating. That cat was a worthless jaywalking stow-away, the rider was blocking the right of way, blew through a red light, and began jaywalking too, and the woman on the side of the street aided and abetted their crimes. All three need to burn in Hell, TPAD, and DIAF.

Oh yeah: the red car was operating without ensuring all passengers were buckled in. Passengers of that young age also need to be in a booster seat in the back. Fry that driver too.

I like how she used the force to influence things.
