I like how they go by a cop at 8:46 with a guy doing a wheelie on a quad like it's no big deal.

What the gently caress is that poo poo, and is it wrong that I want everyone involved to die?

I'm going to say no, since while watching it (before seeing your response) I was thinking that a pair of utility poles and a long piece of 1/8" steel cable would fix the gently caress out of that problem.

A load of ball bearings release just ahead of the group, too. Many, many options, but your way is easier to clean up/disassemble.

Anyone who sees that and doesn't think it's cool as gently caress, I pity your mind man. Those dudes are living the life they can but sure let's kill them for breaking traffic laws.

The cops let them be cause when they chased em it either ended up in nothing or dead black kids. Only difference between these kids and the ones that ride in quad parks is the white kids in quad parks have dads with trucks.

Yes this is cool as gently caress

Lets not forget that (edit) many of these bikes are stolen from surrounding counties.

That police will not chase them so they ride with impunity.

That this happened :http://weblogs.baltimoresun.com/news/crime/blog/2010/06/dirt_bike_crash.html
Summary : dirt bike runs a red light, smashes into car. Friends come and beat up car driver, and put them into the hospital because

In large rides they will post a few bikes at intersection and block traffic as a mob of them roll through downtown, ignoring red lights/one ways etc.

Another event

quote:

A 44-year-old motorcyclist from Greenbelt was killed Sunday after he crashed into a pole at Gilmor and Fayette streets when he lost control swerving to avoid a dirt bike whose operator was carrying a 2-year-old child.

I'm not saying all the bikes are legal but I'd guess that most of the stolen ones were bought stolen. How many inner city black kids are getting out to the country to steal bikes from people with impunity? But I have heard stories of dudes buyin bikes without titles and whatnot and not caring at all.

If I rode a quad in the park, my dad would have kicked my rear end and sold the quad (if I'd had one).

I understand why (in general) the cops don't chase them, but it's still bullshit that they are basically "allowed" to do that because you know, enforcing the law is hard or something.

I'm assuming your trolling cause what you posted is so dumb but in case you aren't, quad parks are parks where you go to ride quads. They are quad centered parks. You ride a quad there.

Yeah and street riders with papers did the same thing to a driver a while back so let's just paint all street riders with the same brush too.

Nice to see you can respond to 'keep an open mind' with immediately shutting yours.

If you all didn't realize they address and show perspectives like yours in the documentary. Which is why I think you might find it interesting.

I mean I've been watching the doc since I posted it and I'm like halfway thru so....

Just to clarify here - you're white-knighting people who knowingly purchase stolen property and then proceed to illegally operate unregistered (and often non-road legal) vehicles on public roads, and then react violently when they cause an accident.

I want to rig up one of those big number displays in the back of the car and tell them how long they've been wheelie-ing for. Like in GTA or Saint's Row, let them challenge each other for the title of Wheelie King of Atlanta.

I got yelled at to SLOW DOWN! by an old guy in a Silverado. It would make sense if I was speeding or driving recklessly but this was while I was crawling at 15mph uphill on an unpaved road in the middle of nowhere. Also, I was slowing down and moving over to the right because he was taking up the middle of the road coming down the hill.

I was honestly hoping he would call the number plastered all over the outside of the car so I could hear exactly what the hell he was so upset about.

Some rear end in a top hat in a BMW skidded off the road into one of the poles to our power lines. My office has had no power all morning. He tried to flee by taking the tags off his car and calling his buddy to come get him but the police arrived first. He was last seen being cuffed and loaded into the back of a police cruiser. Still waiting for the power to come back on two and a half hours later.

There's this guy who walks his dog down a long hill that I'm going up the same time as a couple times a week. I'm usually doing about 20-25 (it's a 25MPH zone) in first or second gear because tiny engine, and he ALWAYS does this "arm up in the air waving to slow down and step half in front of my car" poo poo, and I have to go around him. One day I just know he's going to step further as I go around him and he's going to get hit, and I don't even care.

My street is so cracked up though, nobody else goes more than 20 despite the street being signed for 30.

I was going to turn left to pull into a shopping center off a busy highway. Someone was just sitting in the driveway entrance/exit, no signal, nothing. I waited a moment in the suicide lane staring right at them in hopes that the driver would realize he/she's supposed to signal or something. Nope. So then I waited for traffic to clear and just went around him.

He/she still didn't move for another five minutes or so, and he/she/it eventually turned right. Really? You're going to sit in the middle of the entrance/exit and text your boyfriend? You couldn't do that before pulling out of the parking spot?
