I know there are plenty of assholes who like to do stunts on interstates, but now they are filming themselves and selling the videos! Unbelievable. I am not quite sure why they are not locked up given they have captured the illegal moves on film and are trying to sell them. Surely there must be some way to use that against them? Just hope this doesn’t catch on.

It’s hilarious that he was charged with “lunatic and grossly irresponsible manoeuvres at considerable speed”. That’s england for ya. LOL.
I just wish they had added on “douchbaggery” as a seperate charge.
November 19, 2008 at 3:28 am #14907dcJohnParticipantWell, I wish they didn’t do it because because it freaks out motorists and creates ill-will towards motorcyclists (cagers are bad enough without adding malice to the mix). And increased risk leads to increased accidents which leads to increased insurance rates for the rest of us. Also, I can’t even pull a small wheelie, so I really don’t need them rubbing my face in it.
On the silver lining side, when I see people taking crazy risks like this, often without protective gear, it makes some of the more daunting safety stats about riding a motorcycle a lot easier to swallow. “Well sure it gets dangerous…. when you’re an idiot.”
