There is a motorcycle FB group where near every last person was DEFENDING the riders saying the SUV driver should be charged with attempted manslaughter. Others in the same group were even calling for the driver's death. I have no idea how these people survived infancy.

Yup. And depending on how the video gets edited and reposted, it will only get worse. It's like that video of the cops shooting that guy's rottweiler that resurfaced a month ago. When it resurfaced, all the stupid crap the guy was pulling was edited out, as well as the two times the dog lunged at the cops. The new version just shows the cop shooting the dog without any provocation. And the stupid sheep on FB fell for it and flipped out.

I've got a couple squid acquaintances who were doing the same thing. They were even re-posting pictures of the one injured rider from that group with the original text about how the police are liars and all that crap.

2)The bikers were in prusuit
3)the RR driver had a right to defend himself.
Soon as they started to chase, his life was again in danger, he was unable to avoid, so the next step is brake hard, Reverse into them, do what you must to survive.
Again this is why I carry, because punk bikers like this (the exact kind of idiots that put on "side shows" in the oakland area) exist.
Oh but I am sorry, we are being insencitive, Mr. "they were in the right, they didn't deserve to be hurt/killed"...people like you make me sick.
If that was me and my kids in the Range Rover there would be a lot more squids who can't walk
Seeing the other videos of the same group riding quads and dirt bikes with no plates on the sidewalks etc makes my blood boil
I'm guessing NYPD are going to put the smack down on these 'stunterz'

aftermath of beating of the RR driver, multiple reports state he was stabbed as well
If you look at the photo, you'll notice the wife of the RR driver with a bashed window, rear door opened as well where there child was. Also the front tire is missing. I'd say when the RR was first stopped in the beginning of the video, thats when the tire was slashed then the mob of squids tried to open the doors. The tires eventually ripped away as they drove away.
IMO the RR driver was going to be lynched no matter what. I would have done the same thing in his position
I like how there is a person taking a photo with an ipad
However if you feel the RR driver should be punished for his actions, you can show your support towards Jay Meezee who was injured during this event

Why didnt the RR guy or his wife call the cops and then drive till they got some assistance on the freeways? Would've done the same as him if my family was in the car but dumb move getting stuck in traffic.
Also lol @ that comment about the guy that got run over. If true, hes a dumb****.
Though Mieses is a Massachusetts resident, he has never had a valid Massachusetts driver’s license for a passenger vehicle and has never applied for a motorcycle license, the Registry of Motor Vehicles said.
Registry records show that Mieses applied for a learner’s permit in 1999 and 2000, but that he never obtained a full license because he failed to pay fines imposed after he was ticketed for speeding in Lawrence in 1999. His last contact with the Registry was in 2001, when he obtained an identification card, registry records show.
Since 1999, he has been ticketed by police 16 times, in Lawrence, Methuen, Roxbury, Andover, and New Hampshire, according to registry records.
In June, the Registry notified the National Driver Register that Mieses was a habitual traffic offender whose right to drive in Massachusetts was revoked until 2017, records show.

Also, was impressed with Range Rover, the way it mounted and traversed those squids and their bikes was impressive, as were the run-flats
If he had not left the freeway he would have made it.
It was all very 'Mad Max'

The fact is, is that the main video that people are watching leaves out a good portion of the early part of the video (clear by the random "cut-in" right when the bad stuff begins) and the later part of the video (clear by the random "cut-out" right when the really bad stuff that happens to the driver begins). Additionally, there is only a brief shot of the guy in the white t-shirt break checking the RR, but then proceeding to cause problems for him.
I hope they get these bikers. There's so much video of it, they simply have to. This was a mob-lynching of the driver of the RR who was clearly in the right once they brake-checked him and threatened his family's life.
No jury would ever convict the driver of the SUV. None.
