If you run into the back of someone then its your fault.....what he did after that is inexcusable

been on ride out when car driving idiots get in the pack and drive like dicks.
I would have been one of those that chased him down



And now the cops would be looking for you too! Why would you do it.
We get cut up all the time by cars why rise to it, if no-one gets hurt. Use video footage or get the plates and report it.
The rover driver isn't being charged for anything, and several bikers are being questioned or charged according to the article.
Its gone viral across the world and bikers are being cast in more bad light because of some testosterone fuelled twats.
Red Heads - Slowly taking over the world!!!

Would you be one of those that pulled a knife out?

Some of the bikers, apparently angry over the collision, started to confront the driver and, at one point, started to slash his tires.

And as for people who 'get in the pack and drive like dicks', I take it you haven't watched the video?  A lot of those bikers are riding like idiots.  If you want to have your own bit of road, go hire a track.

More from CNN -

http://us.cnn.com/2013/10/02/us/new-york-bikers-attack-video/index.html?hpt=hp_t2

Bike gang called "Hollywood Stuntz" - So stupid.

Apparently one of the bikers that got hit is paralyzed and in a coma.

What a bunch of punks and probably want-to-be thugs.

so let me get this right
while driving along minding his own business he was engulfed by up to 75 motorbike riding like total arse holes
after an altercation  a bike which is riding in a dangerous manner suddenly slows/stops brakes in front of him for no reason
he hits the bike and his car is then set upon but the rest of the motorcycle group
in his car he has his wife and 2yr old daughter and fearing for his and there lives' take off hitting several of the attackers
he is then followed but the large group of angry bikers  and  is cornered and attacked again , and yet again he try's to get away from his attackers knocking several of them over , before finally being cornered and attacked by the mass of bikers
and now the bikers are complaining that the police aren't going to charge the car driver
if you have time watch the other clips to see just how bigger arseholes these bikers where ! weaving through traffic cutting every one up riding down paths blocking roads so they will have the only route through traffic ignoring road sign and traffic signal !

According to that article the cager hasn't been charged with anything despite putting someone in a coma. I know they're looking at the whole incident but the police seem be condoning running people over. I wonder if the driver or his wife called the police and got advised to do that?

"cager hasn't been charged"  maybe they are looking at it as self-defence ?
to be honest if I truly believed my wife and children were at risk , I think I may do the same as him !
and I would challenge anyone to say they wouldn't do the same !

Knowing how things work in the states - it wouldn't surprise me if the Range Rover driver didn't get in trouble.

I'm not taking sides, just saying.

Apparently this is all over the news channels back in the States. Of course it's in NYC so it gets a bunch of media coverage. Media coverage is so bias towards the Northeast and Southern Cali.

Anything to take our minds off the government shut down.

as much as I feel for the biker and his family , after watching the clips , I cant help but feel their own group behavour brought this upon him
 
and if the cager is charged with anything , will all the bikers in the clips also be charged both with threating behavouir and the hundreds of offences filmed before the inccident
 
 
"One of those bikers was Mieses. His wife, Dayana Mieses, says he had gotten off of his bike to help the injured biker who was hit in the initial collision"  you cant see this from the video  but maybe the injured man was really just trying to help.but !!

I'm not saying I would've acted any different if I/my family had been threatened but I'd also expect punishing for running people over.

Seriously? So you'd just sit there and take 50+ people, with weapons, threatening you and your family?

They're obviously twats, It's a pity he didn't take out a few more of them :|

Yes, if by my actions someone was in a coma I would expect there to be consequences, two wrongs do not make a right.

In that case I'm glad you don't run the country ;)

I have watched this video a few times now , and seen the news footage , and I would have driven off as well , I wouldn't have given a fuck about the welfare of the twats threatening my family . Surely you have the right to defend yourself . If you were in your home and a mob broke in and attacked you and you had the opportunity to defend yourself , you would .

More videos here.  Not watched them all but from what I gather it's more footage of them riding like idiots.

We are never going to know exactly what happened.

I'm wondering if some sort of weapon was brandished at the driver so in order of self preservation he floored it and what/whoever was in front of him got totalled. From then it spiralled out of control.

Quiet scary really, all those bikers just doing what they want.

Apart from this appalling incident it looked like fucking good fun, spoiled by pavements, wrong side of the road and a few wheelies from the 13% brigade :D

It says in the article linked earlier that they were trying to slay his tyres, so several have knives by the sounds of it
