Did the biggest stoppie of my life on the CBR this morning in traffic at about 50mph when some old guy cut into my lane 20 feet in front of me going 30 mph slower. Scariest experience I've had on a motorcycle so far. Guess my brakes are ok though.

Alright, let's do some crash analysis:

What options did the rider have here? What behaviors should the rider have used to avoid getting in the situation in the first place?

Putting this video on my phone to use as a response whenever I get the "Why do you lane split isn't that super dangerous?" thing from non-riders.

I rode from San Francisco to Napa and back last night/this morning during rush hour without health insurance (COBRA ran out Monday, haven't reupped). This is literally the stupidest thing I have done in my entire life.
