Motorcyclist says Dallas crackdown went too far

[VaderTT]

Last weekend on I-20 near cooper the entire highway was brought to nearly a standstill for 15 minutes while a bunch of jackasses rode wheelies while other neck beards recorded them from the back of a truck. Couldn't fucking believe the balls they had to do something like that.

That is bullshit! I've never seen it in person, but I would be pissed!
Maybe they don't do that shit much in my area. I just see the amount of asshole drivers I see (more than anywhere I've lived) to be more than the amount of asshole bikers I see.

Like 99.9% to .1%

First time I've seen it, but I have had them slow traffic up, but completely cause a traffic jam is something different. I came onto I-20 at S-287 and they held up traffic all the way to 360-N, about 10 miles or so, 15 minutes.

I have seen cars go through the pack without getting fucked with...it really all depends on what the driver is doing. I've never seen a random car get fucked with. But when the driver is flipping people off and/or swerving/brake checking/etc, that's when I've seen people kick off mirrors. I've never personally done that and don't condone it. If you damage someone's car, you're asking for more trouble than you're going to want. Even I know and respect that.

The point about traffic coming to a stop during the hail storm so that some people could avoid damage to their cars is a good one. We DEFINITELY have more hail storms in DFW than we do stunt rides, lol. When I saw that one the news, I was waiting for them to draw a comparison, but I was left disappointed.

Vader hit the nail on the head in his last post, IMO.

I'm going to guess this was Saturday...

Lol, I missed that!

Anyways, there are plenty of people driving 50 or so on the highway. What do we do about them?

During the last storm, people blocked off the highway to have their cars sit under the bridge. What do we do about them?

It's interesting that someone would try to kill a motorcyclist for going under the speed limit, granted for illegal reasons, but when a street racing video pops up there are no negative comments.

If you would abandon your family to hit a motorcycle going under the speed limit, that is interesting!

Cars going under the speed limit is annoying. How many times do you have a group of a dozen cars, blocking the freeway, going 40mph on two wheels? This isn't Egypt, it's not Arab Drift, we're not being hounded by packs of hooligan clown cars. I understand you are playing Devil's advocate but the stunting bullshit is on a totally different level.

I don't know, i've never seen a group of a dozen cars blocking the freeway on 2 wheels.

Just like I've never seen a group of motorcycles stunting while i'm in my car.

Seriously, Phil, I've had it happen at least a half-dozen times on 360, 3-4 times on 183 and twice on I-20. I'm talking 6-18 bikes, taking turns doing wheelies and other dumb shit at 30-45 mph and taking every lane. Sometimes even the shoulder.

The concession I will make is that I haven't had THAT happen in about 6 months, but for a couple years it was happening to me every 2-3 months without fail, sometimes more.

I think it was Sunday afternoon.

Shit dude! I guess I'm driving at the wrong times in the right areas, or right times in the wrong areas.......or.........shit.

Ah, Saturday was a FTW ride and Sunday was Dallas. I'm pretty terrible with directions, but it looks like that a way to get there.

I'll be honest, after sitting behind those fucking morons blocking traffic, I was willing their bikes to drop one of those clowns on his fucking head in the middle of the freeway.

Were there any lanes open or were bikes blocking them all? Rides like that, there is SUPPOSE to be a lane open, but you get some tards usually. If it's not a tard it's a car that wants to watch.

I duno, it's boring to me now, seen one wheelie seen them all.

My bike night is normal/quick pace and we had some fucktards join our ride. They were pretty sketchy trying to wheelie and what not. 15 minutes later after they split from our group one of them looped his bike at 70MPH. Hard to feel sorry when you saw it coming.

Yep. If bikers want everyone to treat them like soft tissue rag dolls (and you should because they are) they should return the courtesy by not acting like a jackass on the highways. If you want to cruise or conduct little bike parades knock yourself out. But don't impede traffic with your bullshit.

You guys will be the first to get all indignant and shit if I swerve into your lane while you are speeding on a little dot in my mirror but then turn around and pull the same stunt (no pun intended) on film and or otherwise.

Why the fuck would that make it ok??????

There was absolutely no courtesy involved. Even in your suggested situation, block 4 of 5 lanes going 30-45mph while doing wheelies? That's ridiculous.
