Anybody else see on the news the hordes of ATV and dirt bike stunters on the streets of Washington DC? Packs of 50-60 pulling wheelies, doing donuts in traffic, speeding, weaving in and out of cars like the motorcycle stunters in New York and California taking over the roads.
Geesh
A bunch of Amish hooligans no doubt.
I've heard mention of it happening in DC and to a lesser degree in Baltimore. Not sure what law enforcement is doing.
They said police was afraid to initiate a chase for fear of an innocent getting injured by fleeing quads
You'll see these in Philly too; maybe not in hordes of 50-60, but easily a dozen or two. The cops don't put much effort into stopping them, but I can certainly understand why. As soon as the lights go on, they scatter like cockroaches...over curbs, through alleys and backyards, places the cops simply cannot pursue them. I hate encountering them while out for a ride; checking my mirror and seeing some birdbrain on a dirt bike doing a wheelie 20 feet behind me. It makes my blood boil, but all I can do is pull over and let them pass.
What the cops need is a detainment net, deployable from the front bumper. They wouldn't catch them all, but nabbing one or two and impounding the bikes might serve as a small deterrent.
Wow....130 photos of these numbskulls, with most of them getting pretty good-quality shots.
Someone put a lot of time into that, I hope something comes of it.
