1. Motorcycles. Why are these things street legal? I challenge anyone out there to remember a time they saw a motorcycle that was driving the speed limit and adhering to all traffic laws.

When I see them, they are usually going about 120 mph down I-35E, weaving in and out of lanes like those white lines are just there for show.

Nothing irks me more than sitting in dense 5 p.m. or Friday traffic, only to see a motorcycle driving between the rows of cars, going about 40 mph. I want so badly to open my car door just before they reach me.

I’ll never forget the time I was driving down the George Bush around 10 p.m., when all of a sudden scorching down the road were not only about five motorcycles driving erratically, but they were all riding on their back tires. Popping a wheelie while doing 80 mph down a public roadway: stupid.

I remember a few years back, I think after Gary Busey had his bad motorcycle wreck, there was a public service announcement asking motorists to “keep an eye open for motorcyclists,” like they are being abused by us car and truck drivers.

I remember telling the TV, “I’ll look out for them as soon as they start obeying traffic laws.” I’m still waiting, so in my eyes, they are fair game.

these are one of the guys that have road rage and just like that one video that took out 5 bikers from behind (i think he was drinking, but it was a News video that was posted on "sights and sounds" about couple months ago)..

"i'll wait out for bikers when they start obeying the law" - who the F are you? i look at for perdestations everyday even tho some J-walk, some walk when it's a green light, or infront of my car.. So if this guy is going to be that foolish and he hits a biker when he wasnt looking *KNOCK ON WOOD*, he will be thinking it was pretty stupid when he is in jail..

Now that they took away his pen, they should take away his sword!

Here in California, if you get busted for spousal abuse you are not allowed to posses a firearm for ten years.

I think they should not only fire this guy, but also take away his car for being mentally imbalanced.
