Road Rager Pontiac Runs Over Veteran Harley Rider
Whooooo boy, Florida is LIT this week (as always, I guess). There are 15-foot dinosaurs walking around golf courses, there are gators eating dead bodies, and now there are Pontiacs getting all up in their feelings and running over motorcycles like some kind of Monster truck wannabe.
The clip is short, but there’s a lot going on. During a Memorial Day weekend Harley-Davidson bike ride, this Pontiac was weaving in and out of the other motorcycles, driving recklessly, and cutting them off. When they all came to a stop at a red light, the bikers confronted the driver. According to the person who posted the video the driver has “over 20 past arrests from drugs to traffic violations,” and what happened next makes a lot more sense with that in mind. The car drives straight into the bike, which had the rider (a Veteran) and a passenger on it, next to him and tries to go over it.
Here is the information direct from the rider’s son:
“I get a call while I’m in my interview, and my dad needs me to pick him up, he just got hit. Then tells me that this guy was zipping through the other bikers and when he got to the red light, my dad and his friends started to talk to him like “the fuck you doing?” And he ran over my father (lead biker on the Harley) and ran into a customs and border patrol officer, then went to change his tire at a fire station, and was immediately arrested. But right now I’m waiting for him to get out of the shower so I can take him to the hospital to check out his leg.”
Thankfully, the driver was arrested and the injuries weren’t life-threatening. Stay safe out there.
