If you are going to carry a axe, might as well carry a chain saw!

These are the times when I get nostalgic and miss motherland

Who ever suggested reverse gear in the video comments is nicer than I am. My solution under those circumstances would be drive!

Am I the only one who thinks it is fake or staged?

exactly. real smart, there. tough guy goes after a two ton vehicle with an ax. and as a rider he should know an ax has no chance in that match up

i may have driven around him, clipped his bike, and kept on moving while he scraped the pieces off the ground

Unless, of course, the guy has road rage and throws the axe through the car window at you....

There's an incident of road rage that happened here in Washington recently, where someone got so mad he shot the other driver...without even rolling down his own window first. Not too bright, as it helped him get caught pretty quickly, but that's no consolation to the person he shot, of course.

This is NOT meant to start a thread for or against guns (or axes). My point is that you just don't know how far the other guy is willing to go...how far into the "red zone" (as Cesar would say) that person is.

Far safer to beat a hasty retreat.

No kidding. Let's see, would you rather have murdered someone and have to live with that the rest of your life, or have gone on about your day and forgotten all about it a couple of days later, or at the very least had an interesting story to tell? Imo the choice is obvious.

Automotive parts cost more then most Russian drivers can afford considering how low their average salaries are. If there is any chance for a driver to avoid damage to the vehicle they would avoid trouble.
