I've been riding motorcycles for fifty five years, begining in the UK where lane splitting was always accepted practice, but most of my riding has been in Australia where lane splitting has only become legal in recent years. I never pull up behind a vehicle at traffic lights I always split the lane and gotten to the white line. I do this to avoid being rear ended in stationary traffic. There have been times when police have tried to book me for it. The conversation usually goes like this. "Why did you split the lane?" Me "Officer as an experienced policeman, can you tell me what is the most common type of vehicle accident in this type of scenario?" Then some tooing and frowing "Would you agree that in a traffic light situation the most common accidents are rear enders?" Policeman "It remains illegal to split lanes!" "No person can be compelled to comply with a law that presents a real risk of injury or death." Polkicemen usually give up and save face by giving a stern warning. In the long run motorcyclists were able to get the law changed by merely on mass ignoring the lane splitting laws.
Can you help me get this on the floor in Michigan? You know what’s dangerous about lane splitting/flittering… the reaction from drivers in cars who take it as a personal offense to their ego.
I agree, if you have the mental capacity of a 12 year old it’s still a funny joke. Personally, I don’t have a problem with gay people so I have no used being called gay.
I just discovered that the "real bikers" attacking you for having a pride flag are people who got kicked out of being featured at the local leatherman parade.
I watched this video about a year ago, & was so impressed with your reasonableness. I’m watching it again & I wonder how many trans kids have been traumatized in this last year? , how many trans people have been assaulted? The data isn’t in yet for 2023-2024. The couple years leading in we growing exponentially. I’m a gay man that very much appreciates your open mind. You would make a massively better leader than Trump. Keep being you! We need 500,000,000 more like you.
im way late to this but I was an Air Force cop and if me or any of my guys did that we would be in jail in a fucking heartbeat. Its wild the difference in standards between military and civilian LE.
I used to be unintentionally homophobic and transphobic. I knew what gay was but how my parents were i started to be hateful. When i moved to a bigger city i met actual gay people. Im surprised they even hung out with me how i was. But they helped me stop being homophobic and, turns out im gay and trans
Haha I feel it bro. I had a wasp slip in and hit me in the throat at 80 mph right as I started a pull. Got under my helmet and leathers. Haha so was not funny at that moment. Now I can look back and laugh at seein me hop off the bike and flail around to get it out. Haha
I loved your "shorter than 6ft" story. Imagine if they made a division for runners that were less than 6 foot, allowing you to compete fairly, but then a bunch of 6ft people join your division because they feel they are shorter than they actually are, and dominate the entire event.
I would rather change sports to be less biased towards specific immutable characteristics instead of building more and more divided leagues because I want to compete with the best people I can more than I want to win some meaningless ribbon or whatever
@@SquidTips thanks for the reply. Does that mean you would be in favor of getting rid of women's divisions entirely and have everybody compete against everybody else?
For people excluded from opportunity systemically we should continue to invest in resolving that, which women’s only leagues help. The real provlem comes in focusing on the actual ‘Competition’ part vs improving communities. Look at how often sports are used for corrupt purposes that destroy communities to enrich those at the top like FIFA/World cup.
This policeman is putting him and others at risk by walking up from behind on that man with no warning with his gun drawn. He scared the man. He could of shot the man or someone else.
Ight not trynna be rude or anything but I recently started watching his vids and I was wondering if he was gay not being rude just a simple question and if he is wtv doesn’t matter but it’s just a simple question
I am legitimately watching this an hour after doing a shake down ride after changing the tire myself 😂 screw the factory guidelines, it’s overdone bs just to cover their own ass 90% of the time (although tbf, I’ve done street bike and dirtbike tires multiple times each throughout the years) but the general idea of what they say to do is correct, it’s just blown way over the top
Wow a gun/motorcycle guy who’s also liberal not trying to put you in a box but it’s refreshing that people like me exist. I consider myself very middle of the road, I’m open to compromise and debate on almost all topics. Ride and Carry safe!
it's so sickening how some cops act like their guns are toys, as if they're video game main characters who can just point and/or fire their literal lethal weapons in any old direction because all the civilians are just brainless NPCs. it's just so gross.
@@SquidTips .... Mine is a clone of a Honda grom 2" taller And the seating position is much more foward for than a sport bike and so is the passenger....... Much more controllable I just found out....
I mean the method for break-in is good but the reasons he's giving a mostly bullshit. "releasing agents" as he calls it haven't been used for about 15 years unless you buy your tires on some Chinese flea market maybe
yeah lets listen to the guy with a pride flag in the background😂 my sister is a dovtor and she says that 70% of motorcyvles who end up in a crash die and the other 20% get permanently disabled its not worth it😂
@@SquidTips levuticus 18:22 first of all and second of all who should i trust u who hasnt crashed yet or my sister who devoted 20 years of her life to it and sees motorcycle crashes on the daily dumbass
@@SquidTips who should i trust u or my sister who dedicated her whole life to being a doctor and sees motorcycle crashes daily and u should read leviticus 18:22 and genesis 1:27 if u have those flags up
I’m risk averse with a jacket, helmet and gloves every time but I skimp on boots or pants unless I’m gonna go long distance on the highways. I may not walk again but I’ll certainly be alive hopefully.
I don't really fit into any of these categories. Closest fit is atgatt bubble boy but I'm certainly not scared of motorcycles... I also consider riding skill to be the most key contributor to safety. I have a healthy respect for how no amount of skill can save you from lady luck having it out for you one day.
Like this guy is doing a bad thing but to play the other side when you ride a motorbike it is unlike a car for when you crash the only real victim is the rider and not anyone else like if they crash into a car
I'm a Canadian from this guy's neck of the woods. No way cops are allowed to do that here. In some regions cops can be a-holes, but I'm not aware of any Canadian jurisdiction which allows a cop to tackle you out of the blue without either identifying themselves or having any justification.
In my country, there are this kind of usual crime where motocyclists goes to car driver (especially female driver because they're mostly unaware and easy victim) and tell them that their car had flat tire, or anything to make the driver stop and check their vehicle, these are one of the modus to rob the driver. Anyway, back to this story, the 2 witnesess also motorcyclist (I read this in an article... I think both of them are motorcyclist not a motorcyclist and a truck driver) and they both along with Derr followed her home, yes she was wrong because she brought possibly threat to a house only consist of her mother and daughter all helpless female, probably because she was panicking as we heard from the footage. And all the story provided to the police is only one side story from Derr and two motorcyclists witnesses, while the victim cannot defending herself
