Why must it be either/or?
His situational awareness is impressive, but all those extra clocks makes me think he's not all that bright and overly impressed with flashy/shiny things. It's also funny how he takes 100mph corners at like half-speed. Why take all that traffic-dodging risk only to tiptoe through corners?

It's jerkoffs like that, that will cause someone else to have an accident just because of the sheer, unexpected shock of him blasting past them... I say he's an idiot.  |

Get caught splitting the lanes in Florida will get expensive. Watched one smart mouth kid arguing with a cop about splitting the lane, plus he was lane jumping like that also. Kid told the cop he was from California and they were advanced enough to allow splitting, not like your backward state. The cop just smiled, then asked the kid to look around him. Kid wanted to know what for, cop said do you see the Pacific Ocean. No! Well, guess you're not in California. Kid got wrote up big time, took off down the street, split a lane without missing a beat and t-boned a car. Guess he should have stayed in California.

Have done all of those things and so have some of my friends.
We are still here but don't do the on the edge stuff anymore for the most part.
That's a fact Jack.
Guy in the video is just impatiant.
Lane sharing legal in some states.
Wheelies illegal in all states.
Turboed while performing these maneuvers, priceless.

He should re-title the video to...
'Dead Man Riding'
Some folks have a death wish.
I just really hope he does not take out/down more than himself when he becomes roadkill.

The guy is way too agressive in his actions and movements,not a very competant rider in my eyes. Did anyone notice that on the first bend onto the freeway there was a fuel spillage on the road,which is probably why he slowed right down.He also rode through it a couple of times. Just another statistic waiting to happen I'm afraid.  |

The signs on the road appear to be in Russian in this video. No margin for error - this won't end well. |

As was pointed out, this guy appears to be in Russia as well. From my brief visit to Russia back in 1990, he wasn't driving any more aggressively than the taxi drivers were! That was about the scariest time I've had in a cage. He thought nothing of cutting two lanes into oncoming traffic to pass someone in the fast lane.

I didn't even think about it, but I could have shot that same video from the taxi rides I took in Taipei! |

Last summer i was on the way home from K C Mo on I-435 south after the rush hour. Over the wind and exhaust noise of mine at approx 75 M P H indicated i heard and saw 5 or 6 sportbikes/crotch rockets doing wheelies on the north bound side of I-435.  I will say it is/was an impressive sight.  I M H O it was the wrong place for such a exercise but it did look good.  I'm not speaking for anyone else here but i know i was young and dumb once. The fact i'm still here means something-i'm just not sure what.  RIDE SAFE. |
