I bet his other car is a monster truck, he just forgot which one he was driving.  ;D Can't believe that thing didn't get high centered and stuck on that big bike. Then the fun would've began when the other bikers beat the crap out of him.

Something like that has happened before, and almost immediately the headlines read "Biker gang beats up car driver". Nevermind the fact that the car ran over a couple bikes, drove all over the pavement just to get ahead of the lot, pure BS roadrage. There is no winning really, just do your best and be safe out there. Pretty much BELIEVE that everyone is out to kill you.
I wond if you are ferrying to the incident in NYC about 2 years ago, where a guy in his Range Rover with wife and children drove over a bike? That entire episode was provoked by that very "biker gang" for their holliganism, antics, and essentially closing down a public thoroughfare with their stunts and what not. The "road rage" of the driver occurred after some of the riders surrender his vehicle smashing at the windows with helmets, fists, and what not. His evasion did have home ride over a parked motorcylce in the middle of the street, no rider mounted.

There is absolutely no similarity to this situation where the driver intended to run off the road then run over a rider and his passenger.

Wasn't this the instance were they almost beat the driver of the car to death only to find that one of the bikers was an undercover police officer?  If so,  I remember seeing footage on the news and being terrified for the driver.

Growing up around a lot of crusty bikers,  I have to agree that cager has always been more vernacular than insult.
