I've experience something similar and I've heard of a 'car kicking' situation.

My wife (pillion) and I were on the George Washington Bridge headed into New York. The traffic was terrible. We were returning from a long trip (Virginia to NY) & were anxious and fatigued. At this point, I was maneuvering around traffic to pay the toll and get going. Well, some clown decides to 'scare' me with revving his engine and inching forward.

I did my best to avoid this clown, however he did manage to come real close to my rear tire & scare the sh*t out of my wife. The minute I moved the bike and stood at the passenger side of this car, my wife extended her arm, made a fist, and hit the passenger while yelling at the driver. She struck the passenger on their right shoulder.

I'll admit, it wasn't the smartest thing to do, but she was very angry and emotional. Although the guy had it coming, I know it wasn't the clever thing to do.

Another story, I heard... this guy was cut off (more than once) by a car on the FDR going into Manhattan (NYC). The rider becomes so upset that he gave himself some distance (at the rear of) from this car. Then, took his right foot, extended it, and proceeded to ride quickly pass this car (driver side) and in the process taking his Side Mirror right off. Again, not the safest or smartest thing, but some people just have it coming.

I;ve done it. 2003 Dodge Durango run me of the orad twice, once up a curb.... I drove up next to them, gave them to oppurtunity to appologize, they gave me the finger, I gave them a nioce dent. That was a while ago though

I have seen one incident, this was about three years ago. We were riding in a mixed group, few harleys, mostly cruisers, and a few sportbikes. This idiot cut into the middle of us, about three bikes ahead of me. He ran one bike onto the shoulder. After the exchange of fingers, and f*ck you-s, one dude who was about 6'4" and 255 just reached over and put a nice dent in the idiot's hood, and the guy he pushed off the road left a two foot scratch in his door with his boot. I'm not saying this was the right way to handle it, but thats how it went down.

If I can soapbox for a minute, I have had more than a few close calls. I'm a realist, I understand mistakes happen. All I really want is the "my bad" wave, and to go about my ride. I get pissed when they screw it up and act like its my freaking fault they don't check their mirrors and blind spots. It seems to me that society has a lack of accepting personal responsibility and thats what drags this country down.

Bottom Line: Never trust a car!

I can say I've done it, and don't regret it neither. A douche bag in a porsche boxster cut me off in front of a cop and the cop didn't do anything. It scared the shit out of me. The cop turned at the next intersection and the guy in the porsche threw me the finger. So I kicked his passenger mirror off. A simple sorry would have worked but he was a dick!!!

Lets see, I'm afraid of getting run over on my bike... so I kick/ destroy/ damage, some part of his/ her 3500+lb car/ truck... then he/ her, escalates the situation... gee, Im' about 3000+lb, shy of a fair fight !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Where did this rumor get started, that mirror kick'n, is the end of it, in a exchange of egoes???? This has been discused before. Try to find it. If I made a honest mistake, and got my mirror kicked off, in your wisdom to teach me a lesson, Me and my saddle tanks, and hand gun, may chase you down, to teach you a lesson !!!!!!!!!! It's not worth the escalation, as there are really crazy people out there... (ME !!!!!!!!) And I am MUCH more in control... after 4 yrs. of therepy,anger management class, 6 1/2 years in recovery... want revenge... Line a gmc 4x4 60's panel van ,w/ terrex tires all the way around... I need a meeting!!!!!!!!!! Clean and free, Ripp'n

Yeah, well notice all of us gave them an oppurtuntiy to redeem themselves, but all insisted to throw salt in the wound. A simple "my bad" like stated above could have probably diverted all of these actions. And as for the 3500lb disadvantange. I would like to see them out drive a bike and catch it on top of that.

MY point... HOW UNPROFITABLE FOR ANY, TO GO DOWN, THIS ROAD... my personal account of what runs through my head... just what may go "through my head"... alot diff. from "ya do it" !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

About "can't catch me"... took me 3 years, one time... mean while, I feel all motorcycle riders will reap the renown, of actions made in hast, by who ever !!!!!!!!!!!

Road rage, is dangerous to all involved. Even highly illegal, in many states. carrying much more than just simple battery... considering it is a thought process, to "get even"... based on horrible ( freaked out) judgement, at the time... "you damn near killed me !!!!!!"
I SAY, " DON'T DO IT " Clean and free, Ripp'n

It was really retarded, but for some reason, It was gut instinct.

There was this little girl (high-school age) and she was on the cell phone. She was on my tire, and I mean I heard her lock up her brakes twice to avoid hitting me. At the next stop light, I pulled up to her window (hers was down) and told her to get off the phone a pay attention. She gave me that "whatever" hand in the face guesture. ....... I got pissed.

I got off the bike, grabbed her cell phone, and slammed it on the ground. It shattered into pieces. BEST feeling I've ever felt (better than SEX!! LOL!!!!!!). Now that I look back, it was really retarded, but I feel that I did my part to send a stern message to the cellphone driving community.

I`ve done it a few times, nothing malicious, just a thump on the door with the side of my boot to make them realize what they are doing. Ive folded a mirror or two also.

Just the other day I was cut of once by some woman and I beeped the horn and she was suprised and was truly sorry for what she had done. Then some Ahole in a Ford ranger pulled right over on me. I beeped and got nothing so I tapped the throttle and got beside the cab and the dude still did not see me. So I slapped the window hard 2 times and waved at him. Scared the sheet out of him. Thought about punching the window with the AXO carbon knuckles but thought bettter of it.

worse i ever had was on a 2 lane turn lane the woman beside me in the outside lane decided to cut to the inside lane while stilll in the turn, her bumper clipped my rear tire enough to make it kick out
i dont know how i saved it but at the light i told her that we had just been in an accident and she needed to pull over so we could call the cops and get insurance info

she laughed and said
its just a bike who cares and ran the red light to get away

Did you get her plates and call it in that she left the scene of an accident? Man, if would have gone balistic if that would have happened to me!
