I'd pull over and tell him to stop giving me a bad image.

And then you have vehicular manslaughter on your record.

Some states it is legal to lane split but it can only be up to a certain speed both passing the cars and when you can split the lanes. In CA you can't go faster than 30-35 and only 5-10mph over traffic. Also you can only split broken white lines and NOTHING else. But most don't fully obey.

I would help. My training actually forces me to help. :hs:

If they were wreck-less instead of reckless, they wouldn't need any help h:

But yeah, I'd stop and help.

As a past and sometimes present rider I would probably call 911 and keep driving.

I don't ride like a dipshit and I feel no duty to help someone who decides to be a jackass if they injure themselves doing it. Yeah it sucks but this is the price you have to pay if you take the risk sometimes.

The price you pay for wreckless driving is getting in an accident, not laying there about to die while people drive off.
