Last weekend, I saw hundreds of motorcyclists passing by in a small town region in North central Iowa....they must be going or coming from some kind of huge motorcycle event....:hmm:

Probably to Sturgis?
 
Doubt it because that event is in South Dakota...and the motorcyclists were going Eastbound on a small highway away from SD. It's probably other event.

so this morning on the way to work... it was a very pleasant day because it was cool and not humid. Here I rumbling along down Hudson Parkway... I see this young guy on small Harley Sportser or similar but I was :aw: because he was wearing just shorts and tshirt but hey - that's his choice.

There's this driver who was speeding and changing lane in unsafe manner like he's in a hurry. The Harley guy was about to change lane but the driver sped ahead, blocking him from changing lane. There was a small gap and Harley guy changed into it and also lane-splitted and went on ahead.

The opportunity opened up and the driver sped up, changed lane behind Harley guy in unsafe manner... and tailgating him. The Harley guy looks pissed and changed the lane. And then somewhere there... the Harley guy changed lane in front of driver and the driver was honking, speeding up, tailgating him in a very unsafe manner. The Harley guy was :wtf: , slowing down to give him a finger and was yelling at him.

I observed the whole thing from few cars behind and the whole situation was getting more dangerous every second. Wanting to defuse the situation - I sped up ahead and pulled up alongside of the driver. I pointed at the driver to grab his attention and made a gesture - "SLOW DOWN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SLOW DOWN!!!!!!!!!! BE COOL!!!!!!!" The driver saw me and got startled.... and then he drove like a good boy. I think he thought I was a motorcycle cop :dunno:

ah.... typical road rage....

Happen to Chicago in few years ago. I knew someone who own a motorcycle and he always keep watch a motorcycle thru window from his work. Motorcycle just gone under 1 minute.


I believe he mean license plate. Dodge Caravan do not have front license plate.

Yeah, that is what I thought - front license plate not needed in such state - doesn't that not required in Brookyln, Jiro?

Its not the city that determines that its the state. North Carolina is just have a tag on the back but Ohio your required to have plates on the front and back of the vehicle with the same plate number.

You noticed most vehicles have front license plate in the video.

The theft is smart enough to drive without license plate to avoid from bust from security cameras but risk if officer's car from street will bust them.
