From what I see the cop was at a perfect 90 degree angle when the biker hit him. I think he pulled out to stop the guy for speeding. Otherwise he would have been at more of an angle if he was just making the left into the one way street.. If you pause it I don't think the cops tires are turned at all, and it doesn't seem like he is moving an inch. I simply think he wanted to stop the guy for pulling the wheelie and decided to pull out in front of him to do it... If he was trying to stop him he should have had his lights on in the first place. I wonder how the biker faired???

That is crazy!
I wonder if the cop was going to do a general road block for license check or something. Why else would he pull out so innocently? :scratch:

I hope they fried is a$$ if he did it on porpous. I'm surprised the other bikers didn't drag him out.

Well from the other forum...a poster put that the biker made it out alive and alot better than you might think!

It appears that the road is 4 lanes or so wide, so maybe he was going for the far lane... who knows? But your idea Blade is a good one!

But I'm not sure about attacking the cop...doesn't that just kinda kill your POV with them... ya know! Now they are just going to say in court that "these kids were out of control, they even attacked a law officer!" or some crap!

:nonod:

I don't think the cop should have been attacked, though i'm slightly surprised he wasn't... I do think there should have been or should be an investigation into what exactly happened. The biker does have to take some responsibility as he was speeding and pulling a wheelie right before the accident.. I do believe there is a light at where the cop pulled out.. The question is was the light red or green?? Who knows..

Well, I think the cop realized pretty quickly that he fu#$ed up.

Why else did he immediately take a breathalyzer of himself and show it to the camera.

What I think may have likely happened was the cop wanted to pull out do do a roadblock b/c he saw the wheelie, but underestimated the speed at which the bike was travelling.

Well you know! We do what we have to even when it is against the police.
I was surprised That it didn't get uglier for that cop than it did. I just cant imagen what I would do if I was to witness that event in person.

I don't know why the guy pulled the wheelie up in the first place...right in front of a cop...how dumb.

The cop was dumb for pulling out in front of the guy...if he wanted to stop him, then flip on the lights.

You know that he didn't see the cop or just didn't care looking for more excitement.

but the camera guy and the other guy next to the camera man could have signaled the guy to watch out.

The rider didn't see the cop and you think he might have saw somebody waving on the side walk. :scratch: :skep:
the setup looked like they were all waiting for the group of riders to come by and stunt/wheelie...or whatever.

I think both the rider and the police officer were in the wrong. The rider was speeding and doing a wheelie. The police officer pulled right in front of the motorcycle, directly causing the accident. However, the crowd had no right to start tearing up the police car.

Lets hope that Rambo cop is off the streets! Thats all ya need, psycho cops like that who think handing out a death sentence for a wheelie is perfectly fine. Too bad they didn't pull him out of that car and beat his ass! Hope that ass got fired!
