MIAMI (WSVN) - Groups of dirt bike and all-terrain vehicle riders and bicyclists have taken over South Florida roadways in a return to a dangerous annual tradition on Martin Luther King Jr. Day.
7SkyForce HD hovered above the the riders on off-road vehicles as they headed south from Broward County and into Miami-Dade, just before 5 p.m., Monday.
The bikers were seen cutting into traffic, popping wheelies and performing other stunts.
Bicyclists were also seen taking part of the event. Several dozen were seen riding alongside cars on Interstate 95.
At one point, a rider abandoned his dirt bike in the middle of a busy intersection and hopped on an ATV.

Interesting annual tradition for Martin Luther King day.
It’ll die out because it is to much work riding around.
They are rallying for MLK’s vision — a color-blind society?
“Groups of dirt bike and all-terrain vehicle riders and bicyclists “
Video shows one ATV. Rest are bicycles.
While beside the point the only reason why dirt bikes and ATVs are not allowed on the road is because of stupid EPA regulations.
Allow running them over or shooting people obstructing traffic.

That and DOT crash survivability and bumpers and seat belts and stuff like that.
Most full size dirt bikes can be made street legal with lights and signal accessories installed and license fees.
And insurance.
“...bumpers and seat belts and stuff like that.”
You mean, like you find on street-legal motorcycles?
Oh.
Wait...
Yet motorcycles are allowed.
They should all be forced to watch Crowder’s video about things people don’t know about MLK. Hint - they’re not good.
