DerekClouser Posted April 1, 2017 Report Share Posted April 1, 2017 Not sure if many of you remember this, but this asshat was the guy who infamously swerved to hit the motorcyclist passing on the double yellow. When confronted by another motorcyclist about why he did it, he said, "I don't care. He shouldn't have been passing on the double yellow." Then when noticing he was on camera, changed his story to being stung by a wasp. Here is the original video: (Warning NSFW and turn down the volume if you are using headphones, the initial part is quite squealing from the wind) The second article is the news source that shows his sentencing. https://hcnews.com/pages/photos/driver-in-motorcycle-video-sentenced-to-15-years/ 15 years and will be eligible for parole after half the sentence. He's currently 69 years old. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wandering Soul Posted April 2, 2017 Report Share Posted April 2, 2017 He ought to die in there, but he might get probation in 2 years or so. Any bets on the fuckstick getting right back behind the wheel? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fin Posted April 2, 2017 Report Share Posted April 2, 2017 I'm glad to hear he is off the streets. I hope the biker was sighted for crossing the double yellow too, but more importantly the cager is off the streets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bottom line is: that's clearly illegal as shown on the video. Some cagers really get pissed off by the liberties taken by some bikers, so this is what happens. And don't get me wrong, I hope the cager spends all 15 years in prison. The cager could have killed the bikers and there are no excuses for that.

I know, each state and local enforces laws a bit different. In Ohio, with a wink and a nod, you can pass on a solid yellow. If the car is going real slow and driving on the right shoulder, like a Mail Carrier, it's ok to pass. It's either pass or impede traffic. And as a motorcycle I sure as hell am not going to impede traffic. That's suicide. But if there's an accident because you crossed the solid yellow you will be, more than likely, at fault. Here's the official say from The United States Department of Transportation Federal Highway Administration (federal laws trumps state laws) on the double yellow from: https://mutcd.fhwa.dot.gov/services/publications/fhwaop02090/twtmarkings_longdesc.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScubaCinci Posted April 3, 2017 Report Share Posted April 3, 2017 He should've gotten life...attempted murder on not one but two people. Maybe some bikers in prison will make him their prison bitch. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
