crazy stuff, guy in a Range Rover apparently drove through a crowd of motorbikes as it fled with its family inside for fear of being attacked.

Who said bikies are only a problem on the Gold Coast?

On the serious side, I don't know what started the attack. The video starts off with a motorcyclist brake testing the Range Rover. Afterwards the car is seen running over a pack of bikes and speeding off. Whether something provoked the rider into brake testing him or not, we will never know.

Someones been playing Grand Theft Auto V

It amuses me the bikers park infront of Him twice don't learn haha

XBROO · 02-10-2013, 03:12 AM

I ride bikes and I can't blame him, would do the same if put in that situation.

xxx000 · 02-10-2013, 04:29 AM

seems like an example of mob mentality

wrongwaynorris · 02-10-2013, 05:37 AM

I would love to know what actually started this . As I can easily see both sides depending on the circumstances . Wasn't the guy brake testing him behind the door when brains were handed out . I know I'll use my 150 kilo bike to brake test a 2 tonne car , that'll work , what could possibly go wrong ?

Apparently not all Americans carry guns. Who knew?

Hopefully the lawyers of the guy in the Range Rover get the above video.

More irrefutable proof that the driver was in the right.

Without knowing what started this , this is an extremely stupid statement . What if a kilometre back up the street he deliberately drove or attempted to drive into one of the bikes . It has happened to me before.

Just after posting this I looked at Trevors post and watched Pottery Beiges link . On balance it would appear these ********* gather on a regular basis to terrorise motorists for the hell of it . The photo showing the injured guy wearing a Nazi helmet which pretty much says it all for me . There is still no concrte proof just how this started sadly . This is the very reason I have a camera in my car .

Stand by my statement 100%

If you can't see the reality that's fine.

Lets see what the US justice system says. ..

I can't think why anyone would deliberately drive into you without a reason.

From what's seen in the video it's not the start, the guy in the range rover is a dick head for trying to drive through a pack of bikes and should of backed of like other cars are doing. The range rover panicked and the bikers got ****ed because he's run a few of them down. Range Rover was in the wrong place and looked like he just wanted to barge through.

There's a video that shows earlier footage. The bikes swarmed the Range Rover, moved in front and closed him in. One even slowed in front so closely that he bumped the bike. The bikers were also apparently banging on the Range Rover. The bloke got scared and nailed it. To be honest, I wouldn't be hanging around either, especially with wife and kids in the car.

The bikers thought they could own the road and block everyone....GTFO....

Oh I'm sorry, Is there a new rule to give way to ********* who think they own the road? Must of missed that part on the road rules section.
From what I saw the RR was just driving down a freeway and freeway speeds when a bunch of bikes approached from BEHIND and surrounded him and the one in front deliberately slowed down to annoy the driver or cause an accident.

If you looked up these guys, and other videos of them, you would see they are known douche bags. So somehow I doubt this was a big misunderstanding.
Also Convoys are a illegal. This video shows a perfect reason why.

Methinks I know who the dick head is Tyson...
Matey, I'd Love to see how YOU would've handled the situation if you were merrily punting along in your car with wifie & kid and a 100 empty headed thugs surrounded you?
Do tell?
Have a bloody think before you type crap..,

I can vouch for one time--when we were leaving Bathurst last year.

It may not have been deliberate, but there was no reason for it to have happened and the bloke who did it obviously didn't care.

(This was truck hitting trailer, though.)

One of the guys he hit is now a paraplegic............

He should have to confess to his idiocy and identify everyone before getting financial help.

Correction , I agree with him identifying his moron mates but he should not get one cent of financial help . I wonder how much his so called mates are going to tip in ?

Trevor 57 · 02-10-2013, 07:06 AM

I have been reading about this since early yesterday morning, the thousands of bikers were on an illegal ride, they were cranky that they couldn't do what they wanted to do, there was a lot of frustration built up, apparently the Range Rover was in the wrong place at the wrong time, and may have upset one of the riders, but then mob mentality kicked in and all **** broke loose.

They punctured the tyres of the RR, he kept driving fearing for the life of his wife and daughter, many of the Americans believe he should have pulled a gun - LOL

davenl5l · 02-10-2013, 07:27 AM

looks like the rage started after he did a hit and run(bike was in the wrong)hit and run is against the law.when I was in the state's if you had a prang even a minor one you would not even move your car till the cop's arrived even if blocking a major freeway(oh yeah I've been riding for over 40 years the biker did a dumb thing)

turbodewd · 02-10-2013, 08:27 AM

Humans can be stupid. When motoring its advisable to assume the other motorist is a nutter and to not provoke him, especially if youre in a smaller vehicle.

Train > Truck > 4x4 > Car > Motorcycle > Bicycle

Use your head.

chevypower · 02-10-2013, 10:17 AM

And we constantly get told that 4x4s are not safe!
