I was expecting the guy to get out with a bat or something. Seemed chill enough.
 
Rider was way cooler about that than I would have been. Props to him

Excellent stop too. Makes me wanna go practice braking
 
good way to handle it. realize you could have just died, take a deep breath and enjoy the rest of the day.
 
Rider needs to work on predictive awareness. Any time a cage pulls over like that, expect a u-turn. 99% of the time you'll be wrong, and safe. But when one does whip around like in the video, you'll be ready for it.

Glad the rider, bike, and truck were unhurt. :)
 
Damn, that dude is my new non-violence hero.

He's like "no big deal man have a nice day"!

Awesome.
 
Blame the driver all you want, but it won't save your ass when something like this happens.

If you see someone doing something funky, like say, pulling onto the right shoulder, slow the hell down and be on the lookout for a surprise.

Don't care much to see motorcyclists picking on car drivers. I see way more fucked up riding than I do driving. I have to exercise way more caution around bikes than I do cars.
