Default Finally a biker wins!!

So i have been riding the bike alot more since my truck was stolen, borrowing my moms blazer but its a gas HOG, so i had to go to motor vehicles after work to cancel my plates(apparently they arent considered stolen when the vehicles stolen wtf) So the way back i hop on the highway its about a mile from where i get on to the exit, well the exits backed up onto the highway...not wanting to be at the end of that line on a bike i hit the next exit, you have to go threw 2 "oversized" due to the truck traffic, traffic circles, which i avoid at all cost on the bike, so i am going around the first circle and a lady in her 4runner fails to yeild on her phone, i speed up a touch and am on the tail of a service truck, revving the crap outta the 900 to get her attention, i look into my right mirror and she is right next to me, i'm on the left side of the LANE 1 lane, its wide but not enough for the both of us, we start to straighten and she is directly beside me, clutch is in bikes revved...nothin so i throw my right hand over and nail her drivers window i got Astar sp2's with the carbon fiber knuckles, this gets her attention and i get a look like holy crap where's he come from, she drops her phone slams on the brakes and i shoot to the left inbetween construction barrels to get outta the way as i cant speed up. She rails the right side of her car along the concrete column of the underpass and the guy behind her slams into her, so i decide to hang around not wanting and accusations that i cut her off or something. State patrol shows up and talks to her, talks to me and talks to 2 other guys that stopped. She told him i had cut around the cones and passed her and she was frightened, everyone else stated what actually happened that she never saw me...Not a small dude either. So cop goes over and gives her a ticket for reckless driving....and she flips he goes you realize you would have killed him and not even realized it get your head out of your a** and focus on driving. he walks over to me and goes i just need your statement and your on your way, i'm a biker myself man, that was quick smart thinking.....I rode away feeling real good Pay attention people!!!

Glad to hear it all turned out well, for you. Maybe she will think again with the phone. Sad thing is, she probably believed her own story.
