Back in the 1980's during my college job days, the police in our small town used to hang out where I worked at night every weekend on a special grant-funded DWI patrol...watching cars drive through town where there were street lights. Driving with high beams on in a well-lit area was enough probable cause for a stop-and-sniff, and they arrested a few every weekend night.....

As for the DUI task forces, I'm all for them. So many knuckleheads drive around intoxicated or high….or both. Stalking the clubs is an easy way to catch somebody before they kill someone. |

From Newport Beach: Motor officers observed a motorcyclist riding down PCH doing a wheelie. Not only was the rider issued a misdemeanor citation for exhibition of speed, but the motorcycle was also impounded. #30DayHold

I will admit, watching some of the "stunting" is cool. but I hate seeing on the street. Keep it to the closed lots and shows.

This was well before cell phones. The town was so small that they couldn't afford a police night shift. That stop DWI state grant took some drunk drivers off the road, but more importantly kept a warm body in the patrol car seat in case of other law enforcement needs when the nearest State Trooper was 20+ minutes away.....

I still remember: I was on my softtail, turning onto a straight rode. 2 other guys on c-rockets came up next to me. We politely nodded.
Light goes green, they creep thru the turn to a straight, then dude proceeds to pop up the front and rode that way for at least 1/2 mile. Yeah, the front end of the softtail doesn't come up in the air. . . |

Unsafe lane change plus impacting another vehicle coupled with decent forward momentum resulted in the rollover.

Almost like the driver was having their taint brushed while driving or something. |

Speed isn't necessary for a rollover.

Confirmed. One of the largest intersections here in LA - Westwood Blvd and Santa Monica Blvd. Anywhoos, long time ago I got taken out while on the bike and as I lay there making sure nothing was broken, people honked at me for my possibly death getting in their way to work, lol. Cars honked - 4. People stopped and helped - 0.
