They didn’t have surveillance videos back then.
I travelled extensively on 2 wheels in the 70s and 80s. I took to carrying a hammer and when some car started to push me off the road I made a big noise on its fender. The driver would reflexively turn the wheel the other way. I left one going off the other side of the road to avoid a head on. It is not nearly so dangerous for MCs now that so many doctors and lawyers and such ride their Harleys on sunny weekends.
I quit riding bikes on the road decades ago.
To many assholes.
Don’t want my obit to be “here lies mylife, the other guy was an ahole.”
