Priceless.  Think Scott may get a kick out of this one as well (though
LB-whatever-chosen-at-the time may whine).  More motorist stupidity...

Truly appalling.

Yeah, all those sloth LLBs should be shot!

If drivers followed KRETP, none of that driving would be necessary.  The
slower traffic would be in the rightmost lanes and those faster drivers
couldn't pass anyone on the right.

Another one...Google has a lot of killers (select video, put "driving"
in the search bar).

In case the US isn't nutty enough, check out Russia!

Solid-white line means "everyone must change lanes" in Russia.

So this a.shole fails to yield the right-of-way to traffic on a
through street, gets hit, and HE is bitching out the driver that hit
him? The nerve of some people...

>http://video.google.de/videoplay?docid=5439303201214319154&q=genre%3Acomedy

Any bets as to the age of that driver? I'm guessing at least 80.

That's exactly the kind of stupid sh.t that gets your car wrapped
around a tree and on fire.

Reminds me of the speeders I see on 101 in Phoenix quite frequently.

Don't need LLBers.  You'd have to block ALL the lanes.  (half smiley...)

Actually, we can't tell for sure who had the right of way ( Unless I
missed something).  We don't see if there is a light there or not or if
there is what it signalled.

But I think it is telling that the ONLY traffic we see during and for a
few moments AFTER the accident are the minivan and the bike.  Moments
later, there is plenty of traffic traveling on the same road as the minivan.

My guess is the biker had the right of way, but it's only a guess.

You simply can't tell for sure from the video.

Perhaps we could if those little numbers were legible. They seem to
give the date and time, as well as the current status some something
(probably the traffic signals).

I can't wait until 'net bandwidth becomes cheap enough to support full
resolution, full framerate video on these sites. :)

Scott, I am ashamed of you.  Haven't you been watching the news?  Our
government has been bribed, I mean paid off, I mean convinced, that is
is best to allow SBC and Comcast to sell bandwidth to Google and other
content providers in the interest of making a better experience for
us?

High speed Internet will be dead in just a couple years unless
Google's planned lawsuits win.

Like you didn't see that one coming. Two fat guys on Harleys are hardly
comparable to squids on sportbikes...
