Cop gives up trying to pull over bully bikers
ny post ^ | october 23, 2014

Officials are looking for who shot video of a group of motorcycle riders alternately taunting and ignoring an officer trying to pull them over while they pop their front wheels in the air and weave on a Northern California highway.

The confrontation earlier this month on Interstate 680 in Milpitas was filmed by one of the riders, who approaches the California Highway Patrol officer and motions for him to go away.

The officer pulls ahead, and the motorcyclist waves goodbye as another rider puts a fist in the air.

I would have expected this officer to radio or call for assistance. The conclusion of that event is unknown, so maybe that’s what did happen. If someone is curious enough, they could review that video and identify the officer, which would help to unravel the entire event.

Looks like he was responding to a different call.

Cop should have gotten behind them, then radio in the plate numbers one at a time (as many as he could).

Yes.

Failure to pull over for a siren
Illegal lane changes
Speeding (probably)
If driving slow, blocking traffic. Failure to follow officer directions
Reckless driving (wheelies)

Probably more.

More lawlessness. The circling toilet of civilization just sped up a notch.

First off the term bikers is misleading.

These guys cause danger to people on the freeway with their stupid wheelie popping and other antics.

The Bay Area has a lot of these liberal entitlement heads who think they own the road, own the cops own you.

Bicyclists to rice burners (who did a similar stunt not that long ago with their little Hondsa) to these motorcycle boys.

Hopefully, these arrogant motorbikers, hit a semi jackknifed down the road and no longer bless the world with their arrogance. Or stupidity.

It was a SHE and she most likely pulled ahead to radio back to station. THEY most likely left the through fare at the next opportune exit declaring victory and YouTubing it..

I never saw one bicycle or group of bicycles that would take on a 4000 lb pickup with a determined driver.

Frankly, I certainly hope emergency room personnel didn’t divert themselves from helping more legitimately needy people from receiving treatment. This proves that just because you are young and fearless, you are not invulnerable.
