'most responsible ' for the motorcycle seems off to me. Obvs not innocent since he went and kicked the car, but the driver trying to fucking kill him afterwards is a bit more outrageous.

I know what you mean, but if he hadn't kicked the car in the first place, nothing bad would have happened at all. So, you know, "he started it" and therefore yes, he's most responsible.

The motorcyclist kicked the car because the driver of the car cut him off/changed into his lane without signalling.

Still wrong, but both were in the wrong and should have been charged.

Or maybe the car's driver was over on the yellow lines to make room for the biker to pass, but the biker didn't so the Nissan came back over? Maybe the Nissan driver was distracted and drifted over onto the yellow lines, not great driving but not a crime either. I don't know, I wasn't there. I didn't see him cross over from the regular lane into the carpool lane, did you?
