Oh man, the acceleration from 1:20 - 1:33 is really something!

 

Anyone who rides a motorcycle has either been in an accident or will be in an accident.

That's a rather steep claim to make don't you think?

What's to show?

I don't know, you're the one who made the emphatic rule.

The rule is the same thing I say to every rider now using a GoPro or onboard camera... never show anything on YouTube that can be used against you in court...

Simple common sense more than anything... Have I been behind a truck doing 15 in a 45 mph for miles and blown a double yellow line to pass him, sure 9 more miles at 15 may have actually killed me LOL... Would I want to show it on youtube, nope...

I guess you're right. I wouldn't want to incriminate myself either. :Thinking:

That idiot needs to be identified, and have his driving licence removed. People who can't drive in a responsible manner should not be allowed to take control of a vehicle on public roads.

HA! 90% of the people I encounter on the roads would lose their license then... On the phone, text messaging, doing their makeup, not paying attention, failure to yield, failure to stop, failure to have a clue there is anyone else on the road, there wouldn't be many drivers left! I always wonder who is more dangerous, the guy doing 100 mph but COMPLETELY focused on the road and what he is doing or the guy doing 55 but not paying attention to a darn thing...

 

I can tell you as a motorcyclist I would rather be around the guy doing 100 but paying TOTAL attention...

HA!

 

This guy should be arrested, have his motorcycle confiscated, lose his license for life and serve a hard prison sentence. He is a dangerous criminal.

That goes for the guy in the video too.

I'm sorry, was that personally directed at me Ron.

 

I really hope not b/c those are some ballsy accusations and i do not take calling someone a dangerous criminal lightly.

I meant the guy in the video, and I think Ron was just kidding you with his British humour.

 

Kind regards,

Kind regards,

I know you did Stephen and my HA! was not regarding this guy being arrested, I completely agree he should be, hence why I go to the track if I want to do those speeds. My Ha! was to irresponsible drivers losing their license, who would we be left with :)

 

Humor or not, I take issue with Ron's comment. As a guy who spends his days supporting Law Enforcement I find them grossly out of line and inappropriate and as the humor is in the interpretation I do not find it appropriate for one forum member to refer to another as a dangerous criminal who needs jail time under any circumstances...

My cousin has a Ferrari F430, we did speeds like that... Well not that fast but well over 200km and certainly not in and out of traffic! Only when the road was clear. When your actually travelling that fast, the amount of concentration involved is unbelievable!! This guy must have a hell of a death wish!!!

You are puzzling me. On one hand you're condoning speeding and on the other you're a staunch law enforcement supporter. I give up.

# 1 let's address your inappropriate comments towards me...

# 2 I have repeatedly said when I go fast now I do it on the track (what we do in our youth is not always our proudest moments)

# 3 I am not just a law enforcement supporter, supporting them is my day job from Delaware to Ohio to Nova Scotia including Counter Terrorism, Emergency Services, the NYPD, Philly PD, Boston PD, PA State Police, NY State Police and many many others...

 

# 4 your comments are out of line regardless... Are you now trying to justify calling another forum member a hardened criminal who should have their license revoked motorcycle confiscated and should do Jail time???
