KTLA: Competitive cyclists nearly run down by raging Orange County drivers
John@ai6yr so weird. I've ridden that stretch a lot, and I would say cars are generally cool.
Like once in 30 years I saw someone who didn't understand what the lines and the road meant and was upset about where the bicycles were.
@ai6yr "An arrest has been made in a Newport Beach road rage incident involving a BMW driver and a pair of cyclists that was caught on video."

Ugh, the jerk even found the victim online to taunt him 🙄
It's great that they're investigating it as assault with a deadly weapon. Maybe he'll be getting around like a "peasant" too, now that his $100K BMW has been seized.
Nearly everyone is spelling his name wrong though: it's Samir Sweiss, not Weiss. https://www.facebook.com/reel/2836077120085912
