Gotta be a bit more descriptive than ... take it to a race track, you almost killed motorcyclist.
I don't care much if people cut corners if there is a definite clean line of site with no chance of encountering another vehicle. When it comes to blind corners though, that's when people are injured, or dead. Perhaps to make it make sense to the person being an ass, that means, hospital, surgery, broken parts, paralysis, wheel chair, new home with ramps... etc... cease to live, The person in the body bag is either you, or the guy you just killed.
The car that just ran into a biker or even another car is going to at minimum be crashed. The driver is going to hit the wall, run over a cliff, hit a tree, or luck out and just have a crashed car. The person he hit is either ok or he's not. It's likely that's he's dead.
If it's a motorcycle rider, his friends watched and very likely will royally pummel the person who cut inside on a blind corner and caused the drama to unfold. Good luck driver. Most riders are dressed not only for riding, but also for battle. (it's not intentional, it's a side affect of wearing riding gear). While it may not be the *right* thing to do, it may be the very thing they do... again. Good luck.
Then the cops show up, the ambulance, and probably fire department and possibly the coroner. The driver who is probably charged with reckless and vehicular manslaughter will be in prison trying to keep his ass an exit only. How humiliating.
All the while, the riders friends and family put together a memorial video and pictures, and trust to help with expenses and cry a lot.
Let's see, is that all? Not really.
Coincidentally, just today, I took a very inside line on a right hand corner. It just so happened there was a car coming my direction taking half my lane. Kinda scared me but nothing became of it. If I were driving a car, there would have been no avoiding the crash.
Blowing a double yellow is an eye opener. Woops, got away with it, fix the problem and don't do it again. Intentionally taking the wrong lane on blind corners is just dumb. Doing it with people in the car and worse, ignoring they're pleas to slow down, is fucking ridiculous. The driver who ignores a plea to slow down is a jack ass. Plain and simple.
My brother had/has for real polished mad skills in a car. Many years ago before I moved here, He pushed it far enough to scare me. I calmly said "John, please slow down now" Would you like to know what he did? ..........................He slowed down. I trust him with my life. Even though I knew he was in control, it was above my threshold and he respected that. My threshold is high in that regards too.
I'm getting my bike back on the road this week... I live right down the street from Redwood. I will not be going up there for a while. Something needs to be done about these douches ASAP.
