    Idiots. Both of them. Sucks that the one who suffered the most was the innocent one (the pickup driver).

    The biker is far from innocent. You can clearly see he was intentionally chasing the car down. Regardless what the car did to him, he could have walked away. Or if he was that upset, at least follow the car and have it out with the guy in a parking lot or something. Nope, gotta throw a big old hissy fit right on the #### freeway.

    Anyone that would of pulled to the shoulder if they where the biker and did a little that's what you get dance before hopping back on and taking off? The funny thing is that the car driver tried to avoid hitting the wall and hit it anyway. Roflmao

    without seeing what led up to this it's all nothing more than speculation. The car might be the aggressor....or it could be the biker....who knows. The guy who took the video probably does though.

    The witness who took the video, 47-year-old Santa Clarita Valley resident Chris Traber, said he was on his way to work when he saw the incident.

    Traber, who works for a local power company, was riding in the passenger seat when he noticed the motorcyclist pass them in the fast lane, he told ABC News.

    About 100 yards ahead, Traber said he saw the silver sedan, which was in the carpool lane, swerve to the right to enter the fast lane, almost hitting the motorcyclist.

    "Obviously, it really scared the motorcyclist," Traber said, adding that he could tell by their hand gestures that the two motorists were then engaged in a heated argument.

    Traber knew he should start recording when he saw the motorcyclist kick the sedan's passenger side door, he said.

    "Hey, something is gonna happen here," Traber said he thought to himself.

    By the time Traber began recording, the motorcyclist had driven to the other side of the sedan and kicked the door on the driver's side, Traber said.

    I would say that neither one of the two antagonists were typical driver/riders. Typical road ragers, yes for sure. Both of them sitting on their brains.

    I'm in the camp both were equally at fault 50/50. I just love at the very end. "Call 911 Chris" Just the resignation in the voice I found hilarious.
