People who do this deserve the harshest attempted manslaughter sentencing we can offer.

Apparently the biker was the McDonalds axe guy

This was intentional and personal.

Comment posted in the original post confirms this…

> The victim was @ontheblockwithsoho the popular McDonalds axe guy. The driver allegedly intentionally did this to him because he told him he drives like shit.

This is horrible but why did I have to know that it’s two tons?

Because we're all living in this weird daze, where we seem to just accept massive, heavy things are moving through our streets at high speed, being controlled by humans. And said humans only had to prove they could go around a suburban block, and not hit anything, to get license to drive such things.

When you stop and think about it, it's really a crazy world we live. And it gets even crazier once you realize 2 tons is on the low end nowadays.

A daze which may, in part, have to do with the emissions from said machines which are known to negatively impact cognitive function in humans :(

Luckily, both the guy and the dog seem okay-ish.

That's a bus behind the car. Weren't they outfitted with front cameras last year to catch ppl in the bus lane for ticketing? I'm sure if that bus has one then finding this vehicle should be somewhat easy.

Because we live in a delusional bubble where everyone is a victim. This guy is a bad dude and probably said some crazy stuff to the car’s drivers. The driver was wrong, but karma always wins.

I’m not defending this maniac at all but bikers gotta stop mouthing off and picking fights in the city. I used to be the kind of person who would loudly tell people who were breaking the law or doing stupid shit and over the years my wife has ingrained in me, over and over, the idea that none of this is worth it because you never know who has a gun or a knife or the fragile mental state to do something crazy. As far as I can tell, every person with a car basically has a bike-destroying/life ending weapon and the bikers are all too vocal about their unhappiness when traffic chaos doesn’t go their way, whether the situation can be helped or not.
