This group of riders (LA Stunts or something they call themselves) has had issues before with being violent with motorists. Brake checking vehicles and then acting in a threatening manor especially when the SUV driver is surrounded and you can see one of the bikers hitting the SUV is just cause to do what the driver did. Of course the driver made the mistake of getting into traffic rather than continuing to remain on somewhat clear what looked to be FDR Dr. or Hudson Pkwy.
The one rider who was run over is all busted up in the hospital and the family said that if he pulls though he'll never walk again. Good, this whole "we're thugs on bikes and do what we want" mindset needs to be challenged and they need to see that there are repercussions for their actions. I love the fact that NYPD arrested and charged the rider who brake checked the SUV causing this whole situation, they're also searching for the two riders seen at the end of the video punching the window with their fists and helmets. Then to hear the rider's families defend the actions of "if one stops we all stop" bullshit you wanna be thug little bitch, now you see that you don't run the streets. I wish the driver would have taken out more of these assholes.

I would offer some input but I've posted plenty in the massive thread already in progress in the off-topic section...

Pretty sure it's only one person siding with the bikers even a little bit. The overwhelming majority side with the RR driver.

Wish all those low-lifes get what they deserve.
Unfortunately, the RR driver and family need to go into some sort of protection thanks to the news blasting his name and picture everywhere. |

Wow.... I couldn't see at the beginning what exactly started everything, but if I feel that my life is threatened by a mob of bikers... I'm driving away and hitting whatever is in my path, while simultaneously getting on the phone with 911.
From what I've seen, car vs. bike, car wins every time (especially SUV). Thankfully, in Los Angeles, I've only ever had mutual respect with bikers.

I love how the media has twisted this to have everyone favor the Range Rover. Before the video started the range rover hit another biker, and the biker in the beginning of the video was trying to get him to stop because he was trying to plow through the mob of bikers, instead of letting them pass like every other car that day. The guy that got run over is now in a medically induced coma and will be paralyzed from the waist down for the rest of his life, he can't walk his baby daughter down the aisle when she gets married. I'm not defending the actions of the bikers who pursued him, all i'm saying is i would have done the same thing. The RR driver should be charged for attempted manslaughter for even trying to charge through the mob of motorcyclists.
The stupid ass driver put himself in that situation, the motorcyclists didn't "mob" or "gang up" on him, until he ran their friend over and started being a douchebag to them. By the way, i have several friends that were all part of the ride that day.

Yeah...totally sounds like what a 33 year old equity fund analyst with an MBA would do unprovoked. With his wife and kids in the car.

If a mob like that was rushing my car with my family inside, I wouldn't have hesitated to toss that Rover into reverse. |

No DA will chose to press charges on the RR driver. But he should get a slap on the wrist for not running over more bikers. |

The bikers were fucking with him to begin with. Brake-checking him, acting like assholes in general. And then acting pissed off when he wouldn't let them past, even though he had the right of way? He never hit a biker. The biker ran in front and brake checked. You forget RR is a 6000lb box. A bike is 600lb at most. If you brake check such a huge car, you'll get hit. @guy defending bikers: Well, considering the attitude of your biker friends, I don't really give a shit about your opinion... |

Nope pretty much the consensus here is that you and your wanna-be badass biker buddies are the douchebags.
Just think about the one that got his spine broke, he'll get to ride a quad everyday the rest of his life, not so badass now is he?
