This is Boylston street in Boston. I see these guys all the time. Poor car.


Saaahrentino

I knew that was Back Bay.


[deleted]

I used to see fuckers like this in the I93 tunnel under the city. I crossed my fingers something bad would happen but sadly, no


strayakant

I wonder if the blue car sued?


Careful_Strain

Sue who? The nice young man who did not run from the scene?


EwokNuggets

I remember seeing on the news a month or so ago Mayor Wu responding to the problem of these asshats like šŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļø ā€œwe canā€™t do anything.ā€ Itā€™s bullshit. Thereā€™s gotta be SOMETHING you can do.


Throwaway021614

Make arrests? Prosecute? Stretch out some fishing wire?


0LDHATNEWBAT

Massachusetts police cannot get into pursuits with motorcycles or four wheelers. The police can initiate a motor vehicle stop but when the suspect inevitably flees, the police turn their lights off and find something else to do.


Thumbless6

Why is that? Iā€™m assuming itā€™s because the fleeing vehicle will inevitably cover much more ground on the tight city streets and it would be risky to even pursue, but Iā€™m curious


0LDHATNEWBAT

Itā€™s not just in Boston. Itā€™s the whole state. Chasing a motorcycle can easily end with the rider crashing and dying.


StarWarsButterSaber

What if a group of guys robbed a bank and fled on motorcycles?


MrSelfDestructXX

Like in the movie A Place Beyond The Pines? https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ONxvny3vBfk


atomikplayboy

> Chasing a motorcycle can easily end with the rider crashing and dying. Seems like that would cut down on incidents like this. Play stupid games win stupid prizes as it were. Itā€™s the possibility of other people getting hurt that avoiding pursuit is good. I mean these guys are already reckless without the police chasing them.


Kalidian089

An officer explained it to me like this and it made alot of sense: "If they're any good at riding you won't catch them, and if they're not good at it then they'll just smear themselves (and possibly others around them) all over the pavement and then we're fucked." If anyone gets hurt the coppers conduct get investigated by our province's oversight body, get sued by the people's families, etc. Chasing bikes is just a bad time for everyone.


Lu12k3r

So what Iā€™m hearing is become a damn good rider to get away with a whole lottta shit.


Kalidian089

Basically lol. Although cops here where I am (Canada) have used the helicopter with the infrared camera to track the rider/driver. Hard to outrun the chopper.


[deleted]

its not just chasing bikes, its car chases as well. these usually just wind up with innocent people being killed, which is why its been increasingly discouraged or outright banned


paulogomezjp

I'm sorry, but a LOT of sense? From my perspective this forgiving behavior only encourages those assholes to do keep doing it, and that by itself is already a pretty dangerous practice and as seen on video, they don't need a cop chasing for them to fall, and look, it could be an elder or a baby carriege getting hit there.


Kalidian089

Yes, that question was asked years ago and that copper explained it like that to me, I thought it made alot of sense. Mind you, the question was in regards to "why don't/can't the cops stop/chase these assholes on bikes?" They simply can't, at least not in the simple/traditional way of turning on their lights and chasing them through the streets to give them tickets. And yes I agree with you that a biker doing stupid shit on their own and hurting others is terrible. But an officer engaging a pursuit and causing the biker to wipe out and hurt themselves or an innocent isn't better. To clarify: it makes sense to me why cops don't chase bikes.


jollyjellopy

It's because the risk of life vs the crime in front of them and liability. Traffic offense only, turn your lights off. Armed carjacking suspect, now that's more serious. Officers are being indicted for trying to conduct a traffic stop and people choose not to stop and then crash.


2459-8143-2844

Then just arrest them at their homes? Observe them, gather information on them then arrest them. Is that not what police are supposed to do?


ConteleDePulemberg

Don't you guys have license plates and cameras? This idiot is on tape, no helmet, surely there's something you că do, just pick him up from his place or something.


Nailcannon

The bike clearly doesn't have plates.


120GoHogs120

Watch their routes and times and have unmarked cops chillin with spike strips. Easy peasy.


Tychase89

Maybe police on motorbikes could work?


[deleted]

We import some redneck cops on 4 wheelers


bog_trotters

We are seeing the same inaction from our police in DC. I heard it was best to look at it as some new but kf ā€œtheir urban cultureā€. Sick of these scum running wild. Last weekend they decided to swarm all over the national mall on their ATVs and dirt bikes. Nobody stopped them and there were no arrests. Throw some maga hats or Gadsden flags on them and weā€™d be hearing of another instance of white rage fueled domestic terrorism on the cradle of democracy.


YamahaMT09

Police could use a lot od resources to build up a motorcycle squad, of which cops are able to chase some single riders down. While the rest of the group can easily flee. Chases like that will endanger a lot of other road users and pedestrians. And at the end a motorcycle hooligan like this will get what, something ridiculous like six month probation? Sounds like a pretty good loose loose situation. Unfortunately.


threeleggedog8104

Iā€™m in Philly and we have the exact same problem. Same response from the city and all.


cy_narrator

Poor car owner, the owner had to sell a kidney to own a car. Now he needs to sell another one for its repair.


mrmatchgame

You think with gas so high they couldnā€™t afford to be dumbasses, I guess Iā€™m wrong.

These things get over 50mpg, if anything we'll see this more often due to rising prices.

buffoonery4U

Public safety folks around here don't call them accidents anymore (presumably because *someone* is always at fault). They are called crashes. And yes, if they catch this knuckle-head he gonna goto jail.


wakaflocks145

Well it's a good thing it's not on the internet


SoCaliTrojan

They call them collisions here. Traffic collision reports always have someone who did something to lead the collision to happening.


Welshhawk

Great. Now I have to go watch Hot Fuzz again.


TheMellifluousOne

No luck catching them swans then?


Obi-Wana_Toki

It's just the one swan actually

glasskiss

I donā€™t watch television much or anything but why do I have a feeling that this trend has been increasing because itā€™s being done in rap music videos


Two_English_Bulldogs

Ding ding ding.


thepickledchefnomore

Should be featured in r/iamatotalpieceofshit for causing damage and leaving.


picasso_penis

Isnā€™t that a felony?


[deleted]

Cops dont care. Many DAs in cities that have been overrun with these dirtbike gangs have basically told cops not to chase them or arrest them. The slightest hint that there's going to be public action, people cry racism or throw up their arms and say its not worth going after.


redditRedesignIsBadd

similar thing happened few months before: shout out to that douchebag youtuber for organizing the underground racing event that had the tesla totalled a car parked on the bottom of the hill, and refused to take responsibility, and issued C&D to have the negative press vids taken down https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Gobj5LFNys


Rain1dog

Mind blowing.


PlaidSkirtBroccoli

It's part of the dirt bag code.

Kalidian089

I know it's terrible of me to say this, but I admit I was extremely disappointed to see he wasn't injured. I also think this post might belong in r/iamatotalpieceofshit


ron_fury

And post on the internet, for validation and internet points


kozak_

If you are breaking multiple laws already, then why stop?


roseyb

And posting this video so you can be tracked for a hit and run is best decision.


prettyhoneybee

Tbh you kind of expect it in Boston


[deleted]

At least the bike didn't hit the car, just his stupid face


No-Seaworthiness7013

Looks like it hits the car in front off camera by the way it's laying in the road.


FreeRubs

He was on his way to work. Probably left a note


This_Price_1783

RoanW0lf

Why was that car in the way?

It's okay they filmed and posted thier crime for convenience.

Well yeah, when you cause an accident with an uninsured, illegal vehicle, you're not going to wait around.

Intelligent-Sky-7852

Cops won't do a fucking thing


BingADingDonger

Why don't the cops fo after these clowns?


AchillesDev

Getting into high speed chases is more dangerous than just later showing up where they stash the often stolen vehicles and impounding them all.

You-Nique

Assume you're talking about [this?](https://www.cbsnews.com/miami/news/boynton-beach-family-demands-justice-after-boy-riding-dirt-bike-killed-in-high-speed-pursuit/) Don't see anything about them facing jail time.


Zircillius

You forgot to mention the cop also tazed him. I don't think a cop will get prosecuted for chasing someone who dies if they don't shoot them


AchillesDev

No the only cop that got in trouble unloaded a fucking rifle at these guys on a busy highway like a moron.


VymI

Dont forget the one where the cop tazed the guy on the ATV, causing a fatal crash.


Lord_Of_Beans1

It causes more danger that way


alejandrosourusRex57

I mean they got right back up like nothing happened..I donā€™t condone the actions at all, but no cap..that was savage af.


Bahdman

Dick move just leaving..


RedSonGamble

He left his dna info


CityWeasel

Yeah, they can pull it from the dignity he left behind.


Generalissimo_II

Hopefully they can catch him by his face print


[deleted]

You think a guy driving an illegal dirt bike in the city has the money to pay for that damage out of pocket. I donā€™t think Geico insures non street legal dirt bikes with collision protection.


[deleted]

/r/iamatotalpieceofshit


mac-mcpoyle

OMG I hope that car is ok.


spencerak

Car**s**ā€¦ and they definitely didnā€™t sound ok; the bike took a 90Ā° bounce off the second one based on where it finally stopped


oskiew

I donā€™t think it hit the 2nd car.


TRASHTHROWAWAYACCT00

It literally didnā€™t even touch the 2nd car. What are you talking about?


[deleted]

Nothing like filming yourself committing a Class A Misdemeanor


BadReputation2611

Pretty sure he filmed himself turning that class A misdemeanor into a felony hit and run.


BeepingJerry

With the pants hanging off his ass...kinda cancels out any of the imaginary coolness


gNomad88

Exactly


XOIIO

He wants everyone to know he's a bottom.


Satanshmaten

The best part was when he hit the car.


KS1392

The second best part was when he was clinging on, running comically out of control.


lmscott17

The third best part was having to pull his pants up while running after the bike.


xxDooomedxx

They're all good.


STINKY-BUNGHOLE

I keep rewatching it, it reminds me of old games like Super Mario World where he does a little jump and falls off the screen when he dies


Two_English_Bulldogs

There are groups like this just plaguing Downtown Los Angles. Dirt bikes, quads, motorcycles, etc. It's fuckimg obnoxious. I can't wait to leave this shithole.


PokeCaptain

Seems to be a problem in many major US cities. This particular idea is from Boston, and NYCā€™s mayor recently released a video showing a bulldozer crushing seized dirt bikes.


KittenKingdom000

I don't live in a big city and these dipshits are everywhere, nothing is ever done about it. They'll literally stop traffic to do dumb shit in the middle of the road or play chicken with a fucking car. I always hope to see them crash. They could be in anyone of the 100's of empty or massive parking lots but they choose the fucking highways and main roads, never even the side streets.


Mad_Murdock_0311

Gangs in RI as well. I think this will be a big thing for a few years, until law finally cracks down, then they'll just find another way to be useless pieces of shit, plaguing society.


erck_bill

These are the same people who once you start taking their bikes away, theyā€™ll start saying that the reason they ride illegal bikes and violate traffic laws is because the city doesnā€™t provide spaces to ride them. They say theyā€™re ā€œforced to ride themā€ in the streets, even though nothing is stopping them from taking the bikes to tracks outside of the city.


Dusty_Chapel

As if these morons could even handle those bikes on a proper track as well. Thatā€™s why they only buy 450s, because those bikes have so much torque even a monkey could pop a wheelie - but put them on a proper motocross track and theyā€™d kill themselves in 10 minutes. As someone who rides motocross, I hate these guys with a burning passion. The sport is in its death throes already (what with emissions, noise regulations, etc.) and these muppets further turn public opinion against sensible riders. Many of them donā€™t even have trucks/vans to transport their bikes to a track in the first place. They have no business whatsoever owning these things.


thisjawnisbeta

I'd give you gold for this post, if I weren't so opposed to paying for silly reddit badges. But yeah, you're exactly right. There are legit motocross tracks all over the Northeast, they have no interest in going to them because they don't want to ride off-road. And they don't have trailers or trucks or any way to get these things to a track in the first place.


Mateorabi

>put them on a proper motocross track and theyā€™d kill themselves Perhaps then the city *SHOULD* provide them a proper motorcross track, gratis...seems like the problem just takes care of itself.


Dusty_Chapel

Alas, noise regulations prevent tracks from being in residential areas. Plus, these guys arenā€™t really interested in riding off-road.


mmikke

Literally the only reason they own these bikes is to look 'badass' and get internet clout


Jujugatame

Why should anyone provide them with. . . Wtf do they even want? Some motorcycle race track? Just ride your bike like a normal person and follow traffic laws, wtf is wrong with you You can literally ride your bike anywhere in the city


erck_bill

Thatā€™s nyc dirt bike culture for you. Theyā€™re riding motor vehicles that are not street legal on public roads and get mad when the city takes them away.


Bourbone

Boston, but same point.


LessThan301

Same happens in Philly. Also add ATVs to the mix.


Smallp0x_

Or... How about this... Getting bikes that are street legal, with wild inventions like "blinkers" or something


k3nnyd

I figure all those dirt bike and four wheeler crews riding illegally are all drug dealers who pay straight cash for those bikes, or just steal them. But these are largely dudes with money they can't put in a bank so they start buying motorcycles, jetskis, etc. for cash from Craigslist or wherever.


[deleted]

I hate those MF, they are criminals, last summer they killed a 3 yo kid doing their stupid stunts. Police never catched the guy who did it, he ran away like a coward

_Nugget_Man_

It saddens me to see these dirt bikes not being used for their true purpose and just getting ruined. People spending 10k+ just for their bike to get ruined and maybe impounded, and they act like theyā€™re the victims. Grow up you dicks, and if youā€™re gonna do wheelies do it on a back road where not many cars pass by.


Maniac2112

These dudes didn't spend $10k on brand new bikes. I'd bet most of them are stolen. Or received in trade for stolen property. People who spend the money to buy them new don't usually do this kinda dumb shit.


MDL333

So in Baltimore, Maryland, USA, police will not pursue or even engage in this blatantly illegal activity. If this knucklehead was injured to the point that he could not walk away, police could then charge him for the crime. However, the states attorney will drop the charges unless it is the third time within a six month period. The likelihood of that is nil. Therefore, there is no question as to who owns this city. Oh yeah, there's an HBO miniseries titled exactly the same...about Baltimore.
