nbc news has an article of the rider that was ran over, he may not ever walk again, sucks...claims of him trying to break up the incident of the rider who stopped in front of the suv and also his driving record in question

^^^Sorry, I don't see the balance between being paralyzed and driving while suspended..^^^
I am positive his family (who will now most likely have to care for him for the rest of his life) doesn't either.

A lot of bikers have lived through the transgressions of their youth as you have, some have even been lucky enough to escape unscathed both physically and legally. I wasn't that lucky, while I did fair better than the biker in this video, I have my scars...
I too learned my lessons, but it wasn't the pain, the legal battles, or the medical bills that impacted me the most, I learned what I needed to from the people who stood by and supported me through those years...

Look at it this way if he wasnt being a thug that wouldn't have happened to him....

Been there, done that, did my time for my f^ckups. You know what else? I learned my lesson from it.

Thread jack...

Anyone know what the difference between range rover and land rover is? Is it the same company?

I walked past one of each in a parking lot. I always thought it was the same company but the land rover looked dated and didn't have anything that said range rover on it.

The range rover was newer and real sleek but didn't have anything that said land rover on it?

Just curious

Same company. I always thought it was Toyota that made them, but looking at the website for them, looks like its Jaguar.

Toyota makes/made the Land Cruiser. They're similar, and when you think of African Safari, both come to mind.

Land Rover has changed hands a few times, being owned by British Leyland, Rover, BMW, Ford, and now Tata Motors.

Land Rover is the 2$ whore of autos everyones had a piece of her

This whole situation.... Is just dumb, and kinda sick of seeing/hearing about it. I still have not seen anything new that points the blame at just one party.

One thing I do know is I think the media needs to stop hyping it up... If it was a dodge caravan with a lower middle class to poor family in there place we might have only seen the tittle on the bottom of the news ticker, if at all...

I remember a little over a year ago close to the same thing happened in Brazil, just with bicycles.

Some people need to get off their soapboxes....

Why don't you start? Practice what you preach.

But being a father with a young daughter I agree 100% with his decision to stomp on the gas.

This is where it's at for me too.

So it turns out multiple police officers were on this ride. Go figure cops were there but did notging . I think only one of the cops has a leg to stand on he was under cover, but didn't report to his supervisor until days later?

 

[djs2k2]

Everyone hear that there were actually cops on that ride?

The full story changes everything..,

The full story has been obvious to many from the beginning. It's just unfortunate it has taken so long for others to finally see it. As far as "no Buells just douch [sic] bags", this forum proves that the two are not mutually exclusive.

 

[djs2k2]

Well the more informed you are the better your opinion can be.

I still cant get over the fact that everyone said that chase went on for like over 6 minutes and where were the cops, hello there were officers riding with the club. Ooooops.
