Looks like the maniac was itching for an excuse to use his new toy. Kudos to the guy at the end.

Is this motorcyclist supposed to share the same lane as the car is he ?

Perhaps he felt if you weren't going to use it you might as well not have it?

The biker was a total ass.... and in the end, when challenged, he ran away like a scared rabbit.

This biker is got a great road side service business going on. It actually quite brilliant. He observed that the driver of the car doesn't use his mirrors when he gets cut off and forced into oncoming traffic 0:04

Seeing his customer getting away he rushes to catch up. They meet, quickly haggle a price and he goes straight to work on the unneeded mirror only to be interrupted by another road side mechanic who chases him off. What a prick.

Like get your own customer.

What did I just watch?! A biker pulls out a portable table saw and starts hacking at a guy's mirror?! :D

#6, I agree. Most bikers would just use their foot, and not bother lugging around a grinder (which really didnt do anything to help remove the mirror anyway).

I ride a motorcycle, and i don't like when some people cut me off with their car cause they don't bother to look in the mirror. I got knock down a few times like this from side cause some d**k does not know how to use his mirror, and i wanna do more than wreck his sidemirror. How long till i get really hurt by one of these guys?

#12 The car did not 'cut off' the bike. He moved over in the one and only lane he had. There was no line indicating that there were two lanes of traffic going in the same direction. If the biker was trying to pass the car
in the same lane,that is illegal in most countries. Was the biker too stupid to see that the work truck sitting in the parking lane was going to cause the car to move over?
I ride too and I watch ahead to avoid problems.

Something is off, @ 0:49 the mirror is intact, @ 0:55 the mirror is hanging by the wiring with no noise indicating someone has busted it off. I agree with #6.

Update:

The video was staged by a NTV blogger who wanted to bring attention and discussion to the issue of drivers not checking there blind spots for bikers.
An article (in english) can be found at http://jalopnik.com/pyscho-russian-motorcyclist-trashes-nissan-juke-with-an-481000213

The bloggers notes can be found at http://ntv.livejournal.com/310188.html
I used google translate to read it.

The translation isn't great but it basically states his reasons for making the video and that the 1st driver and himself were in on it but the 2nd driver who ran up was not.

Despite that the video was fake his reason for making it is sound. Drivers forget how vulnerable bikers are and despite if someone thinks they should be on the road or not all drivers need to be more aware of what's around them. Most cars blind spot even the good ones can easily hide a biker from sight other are so bad that a SUV can be hidden.

Next time you don't check you blind spot you mind cause the death of a biker or worst a SUV with soccer mom and kids.

At 0:51 you can see that he breaks the mirror with his hand.
I had to pause the vid to see it.
But still, i can't tell if it's an ad or not but I think that #13 is right.
Maybe it is just really difficult to remove the sticker.

But the place where the video was taken is wrong. The road was one lane road and the car was in front of the biker. There are continuous double line on the road. This is no place to pass the vehicle in front of you. There are people working on the road. If you are a good driver then you should be aware of everything happening around you, so the motor rider should be ready for the car in front of him would move to left. If an accident would have happened the motor rider would be responsible because of careless driving.
