Driving can be stressful at times, but that doesn’t excuse putting other people in danger. One Honda Civic driver didn’t get the memo as they were caught throwing a Gatorade bottle at a motorcyclist.
As you can see in the video, they were traveling on the highway at speeds of up to 94 mph (151 km/h). While that’s obviously pretty excessive, they slow down to around 75 mph (121 km/h) and this allows the driver of the Civic to pull up alongside them.
Seemingly unprovoked, the Civic driver chucks a Gatorade bottle at the motorcyclist and hits them. The motorcyclist keeps his composure and then makes a ‘WTF’ gesture to the other driver.

Instead of letting it go, he continues riding alongside the Civic and making gestures at them. The motorcyclist then decides to follow the Honda and call police when the opportunity presents itself.
This occurs when the Civic exits the highway and gets stuck in traffic. The driver of the car gets out and argues with the motorcyclist for few seconds, before retreating to their car. The motorcyclist then calls 911 and explains to dispatchers what happened.
The driver eventually pulls into a parking lot and claims the motorcyclist cut him off. A state trooper arrives shortly thereafter and the motorist tells him the motorcyclist was racing and cutting people off. While it’s hard to hear the whole conversation, things quickly turn when the driver of the Honda admits throwing a bottle.
The state trooper isn’t happy with this as he asks him, “Do you know you can kill someone on a motorcycle if you throw a bottle at them?” He then requests the licenses from both parties, before asking if the motorcyclist wants to press charges.
The video cuts out his answer, but the motorcyclist replied to a comment saying “He [the Civic driver] was given a few tickets and I’m thinking about pressing charges.” However, he said he’s not sure as “I’m already fighting a case due to another video” where he was pulled over and he’s “not trying to get into more court [cases].”
