I just look at the whole thing as an example of "when arseholes collide"

As harsh as it is, they've brought it all upon themselves and to be honest it serves them all right. Hopefully this whole incident might make other bikers who are a little rebellious on the roads think twice about road safety and when they cross the line between a bit silly and plain sheer stupidity. The SUV didn't think to himself "I'm going to run this man over and paralyse him" did he? He just simply wanted to get away as quick as possible, even if it meant knocking some bikes over.

It is extremely unlucky for that biker but you need to see the bigger picture and think about the position that the SUV driver was in.

It would appear they are probably just out looking for trouble. Otherwise why would they all weave all over the place like that and ride in such high numbers?

horrible injuries, but I can't see anyone trying to calm the crowd down.

Looks like he want to cause trouble.

with out a doubt, surround by a massive group of people acting very agressively you would hang around ? Someone forces you to stop then tries to open you door and attack your car you would stay there ? If he had killed ten of them I would still be on his side.

He paralysed a bully boy arsehole and perhaps they guy will stop being a **** now he is in a wheel chair.

Do we know if the biker he ran over was acting aggressively towards him or was he just in the wrong place at the wrong time?

I feel for the guy. Having his wife and young kid in the car must have been scary.

Maybe on his own, he might have acted differently but sometimes you make split second decisions in the heat of the moment, espcecially when trying to protect other people.

Your nice... my pal has the same injuries and I feel for the guys family! Hopefully the RR insurance (or his own) will pay for his very expensive lifelong care and mental challenges

Please highlight the moment(s) where the bikers were acting aggressively.
Without watching the video again all I can remember actually seeing (not rumoured) is the same guy going over the RR twice.

Also, I wouldn't mind knowing why such a scared family man would sit so far back in traffic @ 5:03. It's only bikes around him, so why has he ground to a halt?

On the video they said the RR driver was a banker. The bikers should have dragged him out and hanged him

This Anyone acting aggressive around my wife and kids would get the same treatment without a shred of remorse from me.

Anyone would want to defend their family but it takes a certain type of person to plough into a crowd of people/ bikers like that. Why did they stop & confront him was it really a random thing? I'm sure he could of reversed to escape if he was so scared that would make more sense. I'm sure this was pure road rage & I bet all parties aren't blameless, the bikers looked out of order, but so did the Range Rover driver.

The reason it started was the bike infront slowing down in front of the RR and looking back over his shoulder at the driver. That's aggressive in my eyes. Maybe something happened before that to anger the biker?

Who really knows!

It looked like at the start of the video the biker was riding along side the RR and was trying to get the drivers attention,then the biker pulls in front and brakes in front of the RR...Whether it was because the RR was cruising in the middle lane or it was the type of vehicle he was driving,seem to p1ss a certain biker off,or an incident that happend off camera who knows.

To be surrounded by an army of bikers like that,most peoples instinct sets in,and all you think of is getting out of there.i doubt it even crossed the drivers mind to slam it in reverse,put it drive and get the **** out.looking at the other videos they were riding like to55ers anyhow,along the pavement,running red lights etc.

OK, it's obvious the biker slowing was stupid, not sure I'd call it aggressive. Purposely not slowing in a 3 ton vehicle so it hits a 180kg bike is aggressive.
It's funny though how nobody can explain why exactly Mr poor defenseless Range Rover isn't trying to get away with as much aggression @5:03.

Why not typecast the RR driver? Range Rover drivers think they own the road. To find out he is a banker as well sums it up really. Mr Arrogant RR driver cuts up biker, almost killing him, Biker has a go back and gets run over in the process. Range Rover driver is stupid enough to think he's quick enough to out run bikes, but isn't that fussed that he gets away until his window is caved in. Then it's "My family are on board, these horrible bikers intimidate me".
Why not find some footage of RR drivers acting like **** to prove this guy is wrong .

It's worrying to see how the media can brainwash people even when the footage is there for all to see.

Nothing to do with brainwashing mate. Could of been 100 mother teresas surrounding my car, if I thought for a second me or my family were in danger it would be a case of "out the f*cking way" lol.

Two sides to every story & I'm not sure we know all the facts here. I'm sure there will be a court case & it will be interesting to see the outcome.

nik52wrx

Are you saying the media has brainwashed the NYPD as they have only appeared to charge the bikers.

Google Hollywood stuntz, nice bunch of lads.....

Looks like they decided to batter his wife's window, not to scare or intimidate her though.....

These bikers are a disgrace what did they expect to happen with there pack of wolves mentality.
if it was my wife and two year old son I would have run over every single one of them that came near my car.

also I hope the biker that is in hospital never walks again !
even better if he is actually paralyzed from the neck down

That's a pretty harsh thing to say about anyone, particularly as according to his wife the only reason he got off his bike was to try and diffuse the situation and get his mates to back off. If true, this only makes an already tragic incident even worse, with one of the few people involved who managed to keep a cool head ending up suffering such horrendous injuries.

I think ScoobyNet has come a long way.

There was a time that one of the regulators (usually Puff the Magic Wagon*) would move something like this straight to Bikers, so that they could talk down any other opinion.

Kwik

iTrader: (10)

Lol, why avoid answering the questions I have asked if I am so plainly wrong.

She's so massively intimidated that she's hanging out of the door .

I don't really understand how "100 horrid animals" only managed to give the RR driver a scratch?.
Also why if the RR driver was trying to protect his wife and child, did he not get out and let his wife/child drive away?
As for the NYPD being "brain washed" I very much doubt the RR driver will get away with deliberately crashing into the bike, then running him over. If he does then it just goes to show the world we live in nowadays.

nik52wrx

Yeah I suppose she was pretty relaxed about the situation

Kwik

iTrader: (10)

She looks the picture of fear, cowering in the back over her child to protect it from harm, oh no sorry, she's hanging out of the door . Also the rear door is open? Look at the pack of animals trying to get to the child!!!!!

On another note where is the tyre on the front?
