AMSTERDAM, Netherlands - A Dutch driving instructor hit a knife-wielding fellow motorist with a baseball bat during a fight over his student’s skills, police said.

“Words were exchanged between the instructor and the man who pulled a knife and then the other hit him with a baseball bat,” a police spokeswoman said Wednesday.

The 27-year-old driving instructor and a 51-year-old man with a head injury and a mild concussion were arrested and must appear in court.

The charge is baseless. I bet the defense hits this one out of the park, and the guy walks.

It would take a lot of balls to let this guy walk.

I don't think this is the first time this fellow's been in court. I wonder if the Netherlands has a "three strike rule."

Ah, yes, it's spring again. The thump of the bat, the crack of the skull...

Something like this happened at my MSF Course.

The instructor criticized my riding skills.

So I ran his a$$ over.

Sucks to get tattooed with a bat. I caught two swipes back in HS and don't care to repeat the experience.

I notice they don't give any info on the knife wielder. Since they like knifeplay in the Netherlands, I'll put a nickle on him being a member in good standing of the Religion of Peace.
