According to police and Massachusetts motor vehicle records, Mieses hasn’t had a valid license or permit to drive in the state since 1999. He also never applied for a motorcycle license.
It isn’t clear if he had been licensed in any other state. He was arrested most recently on May 24 in Andover, Mass., and has had dozens of other violations.
Since 1999, he has been ticketed by police 16 times: In Lawrence, Methuen, Roxbury, Andover, and New Hampshire, according to registry records and the Boston Globe.
Records show that the Registry notified the National Driver Register in June that Mieses was a habitual traffic offender whose right to drive in Massachusetts was revoked until 2017.
I was in a truck stop long ago with the driver who had picked me up (riding my thumb) when a group of 20 or so motorcycles drove up and the riders came inside. My driver commented that wow here was a Hell’s Angels gang. I noted that the bikes were all big Kaws and Wings and that the “colors” all looked to have just come from the dry cleaner. I told the driver that no, these were police. Then I saw one of them from the back and his club name was visible- “Blue Knights.”
