I cought a short blurb on the news about a motorcycle running from the cops in the bayarea that ended in a crash.  When they checked out the bike they found a camera (video?) mounted on the rear... they think to record the chase.  Anyone hear anything more about this?

When will people learn that you don't run from the cops unless you can OUTrun the cops?

Yeah, they found cameras on the bike but I don't think they were running.  People run from cops all the time here.  Two times that I've been pulled over on my bike the cops thanked me for stopping and let me off with a warning.  People who run and crash deserve what they get for putting other's in danger.

I know.  I've got several friends that have never stopped.  It's all but impossible for a cop in a car to catch a bike.  One of my best friends lost it heading into Clayton a year back after speeding past a parked cop car.  He took the corner a little to fast and the tree he hit was unforgiving.  I hope this accident's not anyone I know.  One of my old sayings comes to mind... it's all fun and games till someone dies.  Every time I see XXX it makes me think of a different friend I have out here.... he's the one I'm worried about, since he's deep into video taping stunts.

Was that the one coming over kirker pass into clayton? (From pittsburg into clayton)

Lots of wrecks along there...even had a fire truck wreck there recently (sent two (or three?)) firefighters airlifted to hospital in critical condition.

Quoted:
A good friend of mine (mother of 2) was killed about 8 years ago when some 7-time DUI asshole with no license and a borrowed car was swerving between cars coming down Kirker Pass into Concord/Clayton and knocked one of those cars into oncoming traffic (i.e., my friend's minivan).  This guy had already had 2(!) cars taken away and was on probation with a suspended license when he did this, drunk of course.

The bastard only got 5 years, which really means 2.

Troy, would you post this over on the GA chase thread on GD? Nobody over there seems to understand that chases end this way.
