Reply to comment by King_Sourpuss in 2 dead from reckless Dirt Bike riding on city streets by Flashbulb_RI

While both examples are reckless and dangerous, to say that riding / driving recklessly equates to firing bullets aimlessly, is naïve at best.

We have an actual instance where people are dead. It's a horrifying experience for everyone, including the families and friends of all involved.

​

Maybe we should care more and try and educate and find safe, legal places to ride?

It’s called streets and operating street legal vehicles in accordance with the law. ATV’s and dirt bikes don’t belong on public streets. They are a nuisance to say the least.

Have you seen the way they ride? Have you interacted with them? Have you seen the way they interact with other drivers? Because saying we need care and to teach them to be safe is fucking naive. Do you think they don't know it's dangerous? Do you think they care? The people that do this shit are arrogant and selfish.

Tell you what, when you have an interaction with these fucks while you're out driving your kids home and they start passing you on both sides of your car, almost crashing into the back of it because they're doing a wheelie and can't see you stopped at the stop sign, revving their engines, then one of them tries taking your mirror off and screams obscenities into your window because he thinks you almost hit his friend, scaring the shit out of your children, then come back and talk to me about caring.
