  1. So the LEOs didn't even take the info, they didn't give a shit as expected.  Should I of punched his window as he passed me, maybe not, but at the same time he should not have been so close to me in my lane that I could do such a thing. Again it was mostly reflex, and I wanted to get his attention to no come over anymore. If I would have gone any more left I would of been dealing with oncoming traffic, as I was in the left side of the left turn lane. 

     

     

    So when we do it on bikes, it's okay, but when they do it, they are asshats and you hit their window?  

     

    How would you feel if you were lane sharing and they opened their door as you were coming by?

     

    Just shrug it off and keep riding.  

     

     

    You sir are an asshat.  I have never said lane sharing is OK, and I have never done it.  I have been past on 315 by others on bikes lane spitting, as I stand in  traffic.  The law says we can't do it, and with the high population of your asshat brethren, it is for the best.

     

    Had this been a "He didn't see me" I would not be so pissed, but this was deliberate. We were all stopped.  We had been stopped, and he decided getting to work faster was more important than my life.  In my book that is assault with a motor vehicle, but my book is a little harsh, I will admit that.   And for risking my life he got 5 feet in front of me.

  2. Take the time to at least file a report.  You are correct that nothing will happen IN THIS INSTANCE….ex post facto, it becomes a he said/she said circumstance with no legal recourse.  That being said, I would also caution against using your 180# self and 500# motorcycle as a "puny" demolition device against a fully armored 2-ton death-and-dismemberment machine.  You will almost certainly end up the bug on the windshield.  You'll live longer avoiding the immediate conflict and riding away with the intent to plot revenge and retribution later.

     

     

    I did not have any intention to do anything to his car.  It was reflex really as he was next to me before I really knew what was going on.  

  3. Ah, bare hands, missed that part sorry.  I only rode in full armored gloves, somewhat for that reason.

     

    Glad it didn't come to anything more than what you're reporting but yeah, if you have his tag call the police for sure.  Coming on here and complaining won't do jack, needs to be a formal complaint.

     

     

    I had gloves on, but they are not all that.

  4. Yeah dude, I would've recommended breaking it. Regardless if it took more tries. 

     

     

    As scary and ugly as I am, I am not she hulk and able to bust car glass with my bar hands. In hind sight I should of gone for the rear view mirror, That I think I could take. 

  5. Speed up

     We were stopped in traffic, I had left a bigger gap between me and the the car in front of me than maybe need be, but not much more than a car length.  He just wanted to jump ahead, so he pushed passed me.  When I punched his window as he passed, he swerved more.  He actually went left of center after he passed me, before going back into the lane.  And I was sitting in the left side of my lane when this all went down. 

  6. In the Cbus area, keep an eye out for a white car Ohio plate FGL5508. He likes to pass bikes in the same lane and does not care how close he gets.  His window got my fist today, but since I am not she hulk I did not smash it.

  7. I am not saying it is right, because it is not. It was a dick move on her part, but having done this work both in public and pvt sector, there is a lot of wiggle room (at least how the law is applied in ohio). The interpretation, as I have seen in legal proceeding and working with prosecutors and defenders is email must only be kept as long as it has administrative value. Hmmm that's tough to argue if you can't produce the email to argue the administrative value of it. Again this is how I have worked with public record in this state. Now other laws like sorbain oxley (sp?) exist, but I have never seen that applied to a government official, only publicly traded companies. Again I say it was a dick move on her part, shady as f@&k. Should it impact what people think of her and her bid for potus, hell yes, but my point was this is not some master mind move to take over the world, this just business as usual in the government.

  8. It's simple. Work emails on your work devices, and personal business on your personal devices. What professional doesn't understand that these days???

    I know this bit was a few days ago, but I shy away from the politics.  My views on Hillary are mine and I am not going to share it.

     

      Your comment hold very little water.  Email and mobility is my job.  Most places are BYOD anymore. Some have MDM but most don't.  Hell, most people think their work email is theirs and try and take it or destroy it when they leave.  My device has 2 work accounts and 4 personal accounts.  Emailgate or what ever dumb name they are giving it is a lot of smoke and yelling.  It is not real hard to reconstruct most of the data from other servers, be it spam filters or the other other mail server involved.  O, she was using a crapberry?  RIM has all that traffic too.  Was it a dick move on her part, yea, but they all do shit like that. 

     

     

    also can they stop adding "gate" to every thing they try to make a scandal?  It is getting old.

  9. My Chow/Lab mix was put to the test 2Xs in her long 16 years with me, and both times she passed.  She was the most gentle dog you would ever want to meet, She help many a child with dog fear get over it, but you better hope you can climb a tree fast if you try to hurt her pack.  Now I have the German Sheppard mix (or the vet thinks she might be a Belgian Malinois) and I have little doubt she too would protect.  I think she would bark and growl her head off until I give the command or am incapacitated, but I hope I never find out. 

     

    Is a dog alone a good security solution, no, but it helps, and having a buddy is awesome too.  I am sure most random B&E tards will move on to the next place if they hear a large bark going on, it is just not worth the trouble to them. B&E is all about easy opportunity. 

  10. First I have a German Sheppard with the standard loud as F$%K mouth. I have also started a home automation project with a security aspect. The core of mine is SmartThings. Right now I have about a dozen zwave switches. all the doors (including the garage doors) with open close sensors.  I also have a few motion detectors and some homemade camera's in key places. It also monitors my basement for water.  Lots of geeky programming to get doors to lock and unlock on their own, the Garage doors open automatically when I turn onto the street with the bike.
