Therefore, he suffered the consequences. The "right of way" means zero when you're dead.
Doesn't give this mental woman an excuse for her actions because he gave her an opportunity to murder him. Yes, I agree ... don't stick around if you feel your life is in danger. If you watch the video, it looks like he was heading away and getting off the highway and she followed him. He may of thought it was all over with and she stalked him down and continued the rage.
Yeah, there are lots of crazy people in the world. Some will kill you if you look at them wrong or say the wrong thing to them. I've seen road rage incidents where someone made a bone-head move, and the person they made the move on flips them off. Then the original offender goes absolutely nuts trying to run the other guy off the road like he thinks nobody should let him know just how moronic he is. There was a case here where an indecent like that happened and the guy rolled up at the next stop sign, pulls out a gun and shots the other driver in the head through his passenger window then takes off. They caught the guy months later.
Someday when you least expect it, you might unintentionally put yourself into a deadly situation too. There is not excuse for this woman, no matter how much he put himself into a bad situation. She will be in jail for quite a while I suspect.
The most plausible reason I can conjure up for his not disappearing over the horizon is that he was actually trying to pull off, to exchange information.
Consider this: She says that the rider "Kicked her car". As whacked out as she seem to be, maybe she swerved into him from an adjoining lane (Without realizing he was there), contact was made, and in her entitled princess mind, he was at fault.
He then tries to do the obvious right thing, (At least from the standpoint of a car driver......I suspect this guy had not been riding long) and pulls off to the side.....Which is where she hit him, pushes him 300', before the bike goes over, and she finishes the job.
I just do not see where we have any actual evidence that the motorcyclist did anything to put himself in danger......Just the word of the perpetrator, who clearly has reason to be less than honest.
The only thing that we know that the motorcyclist should have done differently is realize that the crazy woman was trying to kill him, and get out of Dodge.
