Range Rover runs over bikers

[stephantmi]

Where and on what video were they on that day riding down sidewalks?

The police press conference, they stated that they had over 200 complaints, of the group riding on the sidewalk, blocking traffic so other members could stunt...

Just what I saw...

Typically it is difficult if you hit someone in the rear to not be at fault, unless of course it's captured on camera... this was

I'm done I am not arguing
I'm not defending him
Just saying he got off lucky !!!
It could have ended a lot worse
Lucky they were enduro and sport bike riders
But still the dude played it wrong in my opinion

And this is just my opinion


Love me
Hate me
It's just my opinion


The dude in the range rover was wrong to drive over the biker


It could have ended a lot worse


That's all I'm saying

I'm done with this topic

Is this conversation still going on? Here we are days after the event still not sure how this guy should have reacted in a split second. Did the biker cause it all by stopping or did the driver cause it by hitting him? Or by driving off? Or perhaps we blame the organiser of the ride. Or the Police. Or British Leyland. Or immigration policy.

Yep, it's still alive and kicking. Incidents such as these stir emotions and tempers in us all.

Sorry, but we seem to be missing something. This was not a motorcycle club or group, this was a black intercity gang that is known for crime/hate/drugs it really was not about motorcycles at all. The bikes were just a tool for them to use to commit crime.

How
did he possibly drive as far as he did with slashed tires

Don't know but he did. Notice the front right rim in this pic.

Still don't know what vid you're talking about but this one at the 29 second mark clearly shows the motorcyclist that got bumped still in full control two full bike lengths ahead of the SUV after the bump proving there was really no major accident (probably no damage at all) and that the SUV did his best to stop where, again, his vehicle was attacked and tires slashed.

Incidents such as these stir emotions and tempers in us all.

Yes they do. I've spent quite a bit of time researching this. For whatever reason it has really disturbed me.

Sorry for any negative tones in my previous post rocket3jjd. Your opinion simply baffles me, that's all.

ok here it goes i saw the video and read the posts. i have a few questions that i do not know if any one can answers. did the bikes come up on the suv driver and he did not let them pass ?did the suv driver try to pass some of the bikes? was the suv driver trying to merege on to the highway in to a bunch of bikes? were the bikers just looking for trouble? i do not think that the range rover was the only car on the road that day ? did this have anything to do with class? range rover $$$ poor inercity young males rich fancy suv driver? how about .. dare i say it race? asian driver black and hispanic bikers ? do you think the same thing whould have happened to a black man driveing a piece of crap car? how about a white guy driving a junk car ? blackman in a fancy car? this is america anybody that thinks that race was not a factor is a fool. if it were me in that suv i would have called 911 and told them that a blackman was chaseing me with a gun and see how fast the police would have gotten there........
