Yes the bikers are asses. But Lien likely did something to antagonize them. Lien probably felt big in his SUV and bumped into one of them.
Let the crazies pass. No need to get riled up because the other guys might get angrier than you.[/quote]Or they might drive a bigger vehicle than you! Going after a Range Rover with a Motorcycle is dumb. He just wanted to get away. If Lien wanted to do damage, he could have floored it in reverse right after getting through the group and end up getting the rest of them. The bikes were trapped between guardrails.
BTW, if you look at the video from the bike rider, you can see the biker in the right drive right up to the Range Rover’s driver side door while driving down the highway.. even crowding the Range Rover by driving parallel into the Range Rover’s lane (reckless driving, illegal lane change, reckless endangerment). The biker than runs drives up in front of the Range Rover and hits the brakes (not a brakecheck because he goes hard to full stop) (obstruction of traffic leading to an accident, reckless driving leading to injury). Look them up!
Some motorcycle drivers feel invincible because they are wearing heavy leathers and helmets and ride something that cops have a problem catching in a chase. While it protects them against road rash and physical beat downs, it will not protect you against collision with something that weighs more than 10x what the biker weights.
NOTE: If the bikers were really worried about the Range Rover, they could have just taken down the license plate and then gunned it. Just call Highway Patrol. I doubt that the Range Rover could out accelerate most of those bikes.
Thanks for the video link.. I had already captured it, but didn’t save the link.
Timestamp: 0:18 – biker in white w/ black vest looks at Range Rover and cuts right into his lane while being parallel. He is next to the drivers side door. This is the time he cuts into Liens lane.
Timestamp: 0:19 – Better view of biker in white right next to drivers side door. Driver of Range Rover trying to give him room.
Timestamp: 0:24 – Biker in white with black vest cuts in front of Range Rover.
Timestamp: 0:25 – Biker in white with black vest hits brake knowing that he would cause a problem – he is looking back as he hits the brakes in front of the Range Rover.
Timestamp: 0:30 – Biker is white is still up and rolling. He was not hit nor run-over at this point.
I am usually quite civil, but I have to make an exception here. You, FlyerInHi, are a freaking idiot! I put just some of the VC violations of the bikers up here. Also note that the Biker in white with the black vest is running without plates. I wonder why? There is a good shot of the back of the bike at 0:26 – no plates.
