    Why doesn't anyone seem to have any idea how to aim a camera?

    The video is just an excuse for the guy to show off his awesome CF-look gas cap sticker.

    If that's "cut off" than I'm doing it wrong.

    I've had a surprising amount of difficulty finding a spot on my Gladius to mount and properly aim my ContourHD.

    Talk about sensationalism. The vid says the minivan driver was drunk and cut off a bike.

    All they did wrong was no signaling?!

    He even maintained a higher speed after changing lanes.

    And you flip him off? Dude...

    a biker hassling a cager, way to give us a bad name...i guess in Windsor, "cutting-off" is a whole other meaning...who uses signals anymore anyways...it used to be in toronto we treat cars like pylons, now they just move, makes it more interesting...

    Where is the cut off?
    The rider is wearing safety gear, he's probably rocking an Icon vest.
    Well-weathered leather
    Hot metal and oil
    The scented country air
    Sunlight on chrome
    The blur of the landscape
    Every nerve aware

    My first thought when I see someone weaving across lanes in front of me is to pull up alongside them for a few seconds too. And like yours, my middle finger is also an impenetrable forcefield.

    A) not even close to being cutoff
    B) There is no B, it wasn't close at all.

    If you have time to lift your hand in discuss and not even hit the brakes....you didn't get cut off.
