Re: How to pull over a motorcyclist
Wow. Although I have to say if I was the rider and that was done to me, my response would be "Alright, I give up. You're obviously willing to kill me, so if I turn my back you'll probably shoot me."

How 'bout you don't run from the cops?

Re: How to pull over a motorcyclist
It's very hard to catch a motorcycle that doesn't want to be caught, due to their acceleration and size. I can only imagine that the officer was desperate. Still, it's seriously messed up.

Me, I'm a right winger, I would normally support the cops any way I can. But if this guy was only trying to avoid getting a speeding ticket, or even trying to get away with a stolen motorcycle there is no way any decent policeman or woman could justify hitting him head on to take him off the bike. Bikes and bikers are vulnerable on the road. If you can't justify sticking a gun out the window and shooting at him, then you can't justify hitting him head on. :mad: |
Re: How to pull over a motorcyclist
If there's anybody that's worth a damn in the chain of command of the S.C. Department of Public Safety , i'm sure that officer is no longer an officer. That's no different than an officer pulling along side of someone fleeing in a car and shooting the suspect in the head. Having ridden my whole life and on the road for the last 8 years, there's nothing more important drilled into you than how deadly an automobile is to a biker. And I must say that as a motorcyclist, I am offended and appalled by that officer's actions, and if I was the victim of that CRIME, I would sue the pants off that a**hole.

Re: How to pull over a motorcyclist
Well said.
The scary part is the fact it illustrates how little car drivers in general may think of the danger to life if a biker is knocked off a machine. They are cocooned safely in metal boxes with airbags all over the place. Tank driver mentality. Ride safe man. +1 |

I realise you would not have known him, but I am sorry to hear that story of how your Dad was killed.
You and your brother ride safe. Your Mom would not appreciate any more collisions hurting her family. Joe ;) |
Re: How to pull over a motorcyclist
Mothers generally hate motorcycles. When I started riding again not long ago, i brought the bike over and my mother said "i absolutely forbid you to ride that bike until your girls are 18 years old and living on their own." She's still not happy with it, but i don't ride much due to the temps. Once it's warmer it'll be my primary mode of transportation.
