His Lucky Day

[ReconRat]

Not Ohio, this was over in Salem Oregon.

What's wrong with this picture. A ticket for 125 in a 65, a ticket for unsafe lane changing, arrested for charges of reckless driving, attempt to elude, hit-and-run, driving without insurance and failing to have a motorcycle endorsement on his license. Wrecked the bike, got thrown off the bike, bike hits a car while he's sliding 400 feet in the grass. He survives, and gets up and tries to run away.

His excuse; "didn't want to get another traffic ticket".

Wow! What a dumb mf'er! Why do these bikes that I love attract so many NON-riders with no endorsements or insurance? Maybe it's the cool factor, IDK, but it really pisses me off.

He was on one of those sissy 600's, if he's been on a 1000 he'd had the power to do more than 125. He coulda hit 140+ and got away.

TL 1000 FTW

I don't know why he didn't just kick the rear sideways and take off. I bet on a TL1000 he could even outrun the chopper!

Darwin failed, this time...

Something makes me think he - Darwin - will get another chance.

AMA racer on a literbike could have gotten away easily.
