Getting a little sick of all these "making an example of him" scenarios. Bit OTT what he got.

Good to see the police catching the real menaces to our kittens and them being punished accordingly.

He deserved it. ride like an utter cunt and get punished for it.

edit: that was some quick negative karma eh ste.

pull a 110mph wheelie on a 70mph road during the day around loads of other road users isn't exactly the smartest thing to do.

I see no problem with what he was doing whatsoever. Just standard police bs. I'm sure they saved a thousand lives now. I wonder how many times he's done it and not got caught, he's practically a murderer.

So why the butthurt?

Because he hasn't got enough braincells to work out that pulling a wheelie at 110mph on a busy a road during the day is a stupid idea.

Did it result in anyone's death? No.

Did it result in injury to a person? No.

Did it result in loss of money or possessions from a person? No.

Did it result in the harming of any animals? No.

What possible reason could the police have for prosecuting this? and what possible reason could the courts give for passing such a sentence?

Remember kids, bikes aren't like lego. You can't easily take a part from one bike and then fit it to another.

I think is more to do with the consequences such an act may have if it goes wrong. Overall it is very harsh, the 12 week prison sentence even if suspended is ridiculous, the ban and maybe community service at most.

if he had stolen the bike and done this and failed to stop then would have got off with a caution or some sort of pathetic community order

It makes me chuckle that you can watch youtube videos all day long of yanks doing this.....and actual proper stunts on the streets as well for that matter, and from the looks of things the police just turn a blind eye over there.....it really does show the differences in the popo's priorities over here doesn't it?
