ReplyDeleteImpound and fine the parent.
ReplyDeleteOh well no symparhy...that's karma...dirt bikes don't belong on public streets....kid should be charged with a crime.....
ReplyDeleteSPD doesn't bother with them because the bikes are not registered/tagged, riders have no license and even if stopped/ticketed will never pay the fine since there is no registration or license to lose. Only law abiding citizens are ticketed because they must pay the fines or be penalized by MVA.
ReplyDeleteImpound there vehicles.they are NOT authorized on the streets.
Deletethose bikes are running drugs, but no mention of finding any.
ReplyDeleteSame way thugs ride mopeds at nights in da bury hood.
DeleteGood I hope the little SOB is in such pain he can't see straight. It's just a damn shame his head was flattened by the tire.
ReplyDeleteSpd should have ran over his head,

ReplyDeleteYou are EXACTLY right. All that government BS new regulations about scooters/dirt bikes has done NOTHING to control these bikes, except to virtually erase them from the streets of Ocean City - along with many very lucrative businesses.
Think of this: Get caught in OC without all the crap you need - helmet; goggles; tag; registration; insurance, license - and it can (and has) totaled up to seven points on somebody's driving license. Plus a major fine. Try getting insurance with seven points.
All you gun control people out there: Take note. The regulations are being followed ONLY by law-abiding, well-meaning citizens, NOT the criminal element. This is what happens.
What the hell is happening to our country...?
Leave.
DeleteJust more of the Baltimore thuggery finding its way here.
ReplyDeleteThe parent (baby momma) will get a call from lawyer, lawsuit to follow, out of court settlement to follow!
We keep hearing how poor the people in Baltimore are. How can they afford these motorcycles?

ReplyDeleteMy guess would be some of them are stolen. My question would be where are the parents. If my child brought home a motor cycle I would be questioning them on where they got it. The next step would be taking them to the police.
