ironroad 218 Posted October 1, 2013 (edited) Dad Driving With Family in NYC Beaten by Bikers: Police Bikers: Police http://www.nbcnewyork.com/news/local/Motorcycle-Gang-Attack-Dad-Toddler-Range-Rover-Manhattan-225817761.html ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This occured in broad daylight in upper Manhattan and into the Bronx, one of the most heavily police patrolled areas of NYC, besides Midtown and the tunnels. Even on a weekend, getting through this area can be just as helish and congested as morning work day rush hour. The NYPD has the resources to stop and illegally search randomn people at any given time or place, conduct interstate/ out of state survilece without aurthorization (which I know breaks just about every NY state and US Federal law), and lets not start on the overszealous 24/7 parking and traffic enforcement. Despite this, they were not aware of 100+ loud motorcyclists driving erratically through the city streets in the middle of day and randomly beating and attacking people??? Am I missing something here? I bet you if someone ran a toll booth or was litering, every avaible cop within a 20 mi radius would be on it...

Ohh the lawsuits are going to fly and some lawyer is going to get rich! Even that video makes it look like they the surrounded the SUV, cut it off, and tried to force a stop by boxing it in.

MigBuster 2,884 Posted October 2, 2013 Having watched the video - well I might have just put my foot down if I was in that Range Rover also Surrounded by how many bikers - then one of them intentionally slows down so you have to stop or hit them - The guy had his family in that car didn't he - yet that article runs a sob story for the biker. Don't know what was said but it spiraled out of control - and luckily one of the morons had a go pro on his purple helmet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I wonder who would win that fight? Honestly I think he should have put that joker in full reverse when he got trapped on that side street. A few J and 3 point turns would have taken care of those "speed bumps" behind him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
