Neither of them should've been in that situation in the first place. The middle of a street is not a place to have an argument, much less a heated one. What happened before the video started playing? Something was going on, why would they be in the middle of the road arguing in the first place.

It's the bikers own fault for running into the back of the car, plain and simple. He let the car pass and get in front, he should've been expecting the cager to try something. Let a few more cars get between himself and the mitsu and everything would've been fine, add to that the simple fact that he was tailgating. The mitsu also tried a brake check before the one that landed him the bike, biker should've expected another.

Didn't she run a red light?
