Nearly had the same thing happen to me.
I was following a pickup and I could see the driver checking out my Spyder in his mirror. The lights ahead went red, I slowed down and he didnt. Next thing his looked up and locked up, skidded to a halt about 2 inches from the car in front of him. Very close :lecturef_smilie:

THATS FUNNY RIGHT THERE!

No accidents to report, tho I did see a fellow staring at me while at a light and just as I took off, he dropped his 32oz BigGulp on his foot and had a little hissyfit.:2thumbs:

People are nuts!

A couple of weeks ago, my husband (on his Harley) and I (on my Spyder) were crossing the Jefferson Barracks Bridge from Illinois back into Missouri. We were in the slow lane, doing about 60 mph. I noticed a car on my left side, pacing me. I figured the passenger was getting a good look.

I glanced over, there was no passenger, but the DRIVER (a woman) was LEANING over toward her passenger seat. When I looked at her, she ASKED ME A QUESTION!!!!! AT 60 MPH!!! I pointed to me ear, and shook my head and she drove on. CRAZY!

I was sitting at a traffice light one time, and the driver of a pickup truck TOOK MY PICTURE with his cell phone as he was TURNING LEFT in front of me! Also had a guy driving one of those big cement trucks come up beside me and take my picture too -- we were doing 60 mph!

WHAT is wrong with people???
:gaah:

I have had several close calls and have witnessed many high-speed photographers in the 15 months I have been a Spyder owner. It's pretty crazy the number of people that still have not yet saw the Spyder. Of course I have only have seen about a half dozen on the road myself (not including those I intentionally met up with).

On a narrow road, I had a guy in a pickup slow down in front of me to check my Spyder out in his mirror, while a guy behind me was getting too close with the same idea. Soon as it was safe to pass I left these goofs behind. Dont need to be the ham in a sandwich.

I pulled up at the local drug store and people started gathering and asking questions. I finally had to say I had to go. Then when I came out people had their camera phones out and taking pictures. I'm not used to or like the attention but what can you do when you ride a SPYDER.hyea:

 

[RoadHammer]

i went to the local coffee shop, and about 50 people turned and checked me out..
than a dipstick shows up and asks me why my feet are braced in on the floorboards, So i told em im in a wheelchair and cannot walk, oh how do you get off the bike he asks? hmmm i felt like telling him "well i throw myself on the pavement and drag myself with my tongue all over the place"... but instead told him I havnt got the mount for my chair on the bike yet.. he still looked confused and asks me how i get on... So I just talked about the bike and kept him on ignore.. I had a massive crowd show up in under 30 seconds to check it..

The hotties liked the bike.. This is going to be a fun summer...

If you look at my avitor photo you will notice it ws taken on the freeway at speed. It turns out that the person who took it was a dude from work. He gave me the picture the next day.

Thats when I relized that he was the dude that almost hit a car in front of him when traffice slowed down. :lecturef_smilie:

 

[speedster200]

Remember the two looks. Head turns and head snaps. The head turns are ok the head snaps the other driver is usually going to be in trouble.:lecturef_smilie:

I have had a couple of people take my picture with the cell phone, and one trucker gave me a thumbs up then hit his air horn. He got a big grin when I hit mine. I don't think I have caused any accidents but I did see one guy who was so intent watching me that he walked into a tree OK a sapling. I stopped at the butcher shop last Sat. and all the butchers came out to see the bike. I noticed they did not open for another hour and said I would come back "No come on in" so I got my order and as I left they locked the door just as another person pulled up in their car. The butchers just walked to the back meat cutting area. Sometimes it’s good to be a spyder-rider.
