Dear all, SoCal...21+ YO to obtain M1 license. So anyone riding should be very maturely grown ups. So I was cruising mellowly down Pacific Coast Highway, when I encounter a teenage driver. For some reason he keep tailgating me...I throttle once....See Ya!!! Then few traffic light, here we go again, the teenage driver keep agressively, persistently trying to so call... Race Me? I'm like See Ya....again for the 2nd time....and then Again few lights later?? To a point where I'm feeling " wat this punk trying to proof?" have anyone ever encounter such situation & what is best way to resolve? Or do I have to keep on " See Ya!!! " until teenage driver totally gone... But you know how dangerous teenager can be with a 3000lb vehicle.

 

At the light, tell 'em to lay down $500 for the next race or to **** off.

 

Nah, he is just checking out your bikes speed dood.

 

I just shake my head and laugh.

Their not even going to be able to handle what i can throw down in 1st or second.

 

They never learn.............
Stupid will always be stupid, until someone get's hurt.
Needs a wakeup call before that happens.
Best advice is let him go by - as much as that stings - at least you can then keep him in sight, rather than be watching your mirrors and maybe miss something in front.

 

That happen to me one's and guess what i did!!??
I got off my bike a and i had a lil chat with that punk kid.
Is not the best thing to do but it work lol.

 

Be smart, let him pass and know youre the better man.

 

Yeah...It happen to me multiple times...good advice...taken...best to let teenage driver pass. Teenage drivers really have "no fear".

Save a life.

 

With the freaks out there nowadays, discression is definetly the best path.
Car vs bike is a no brainer in a brawl. After a few passes, I think I'd pull
in to a gas-station or convience store and surrender the field. Live to ride another day. It's irritating but what if the kid is packing heat? Do you really want
to deal with teenage angst and fire-arms?

Check the sig., you'll know where I'm coming from. ;-)
