Default Road Debris?

Florida driver thinks he hit "road debris" and kept going, with biker on the hood screaming ! I think he needs his prescription checked!

I think the moron needs to have his license yanked for a year or so.

Ah yes, the old "but I didn't know I hit anything" story. Police hear that one ALL the time, and EVERY SINGLE TIME it ends up that the driver either had no insurance, a suspended license, or had been drinking, and they figured if they stopped they would get in trouble. So they pamic, take off, and then spit out the same BS story when they get caught.
I've actually seen that guy's shop on TV, and $85,000 is one of his lower-end bikes. Some of them went up to $125,000.

How in God's name can a bike get up to $125K? It better have "made in heaven" or somethign engraved somewhere to earnt hat status with me.

I would also like to take this time to announce I am superior because I now have EXPERT posting status! no... There wasn't some kind of mistake made either...

I had noticed that your posting efficiency had reached phenominal proportions. Your copious usage of "just the right words" has earned you a stellar accomodation in the form of a better title.

Needs to at the least be castrated so his genes don't further infect humanity. I cannot stand ignorant a$$hats like him.

Easily, especially for people like Jesse James and now the Orange County Choppers crew after their rise to fame on Discovery channel. What surprises me is how many shops there are now doing choppers like that and they are still selling 'em. Makes me think I'm in the wrong business.

Why the heck wasn't the guy arrested on the spot (when the finally caught up with him)??!! That ticks me off.

Kudos to the guy who chased him down. I wonder if he's a rider too?

Maybe he is related to Janklow?
