And I find it interesting that the messages didn't seem to make a difference. The article said it was just the presence of these things that ID'ed the ragers. @harleymac1 Wow. I hate to hear stories like that. Those are total "lose/lose" situations. @ Poo:

There are always idiots out there that we must share the road with. We all have to remember that we don't have that protective cage around us like auto drivers so we must avoid road rage at all costs. A few years ago here in Indy a cab driver did not like how long it was taking a mc rider to leave a light. He honked and the biker flipped him off. As they made the turn the cab driver passed the bike on a double yellow line and proceeded to slam on his brakes, forcing the bike to do his best to avoid him. Unfortunately, his escape was to try to pass the cab on the left which put him in oncoming traffic where he was hit head on. One less motorcyclist. Don't fight back. Just let the idiots go!

With the types of comments and messages that people blatantly display with stupid bumper stickers, you just have to wonder sometimes. The classic "If you dont like my driving dial 1-800-EAT-SHIT" sums it all up quite nicely... Great post, it’s good to see someone confirming what I have thought all along.

However, I just turned 16, and road raged drivers are scary in a car, they must be terrifying on a bike. Your tips are great though, and when followed should reduce injuries on road bikes fortunately, I stick to the dirt so I don’t have to worry about crazy drivers.
