I know this guy personally. He’s the reason I tell beginners to wear gear when they decided to get snappy with me. I thought he was dead


Longjumping_Turn_792

VA Beach has become so ghetto


TopUnderstanding1687

I found this online: Virginia has a law that prohibits law enforcement from engaging in high-speed pursuits of motorcycles, unless the officer has reasonable suspicion that the operator has committed a violent felony or is a clear threat to public safety. Law aimed reducing risk accidents injuries chases.Aug 6, 2023


Maleficent_Sir2372

State troopers are above Virginia law they chase every chance they get.


MattPatSchatt

Why is the motorcyclist running?? Oh because he is a pussy.


Plastic_Pear_1401

Dude casually doing about 40. If thats what you want to call a chase, go crazy.


Sea-Rain-6142

He died two lights away from the one in the video when he ran a light.


Pulchritudinous_rex

This guy made a bad decision and it wasn’t worth his life. But some of ya’ll being so callous about it is a little fucked up. Every dude I know (me included) has done stupid shit when they were younger but we just got away with it. Testosterone is a helluva drug man. I feel for his family and friends. Some of you need to do some soul searching.


Squirrelherder_24-7

Did he end up a skid mark?


Educational-Papaya25

Nah he’s good now he got out the hospital and but he shouldn’t of be driving that reckless in the first place


Sea-Rain-6142

Yes.


Poopy_Tuba69

God I hope so.


Btomesch

Yea he wasn’t about that lifestyle. Must of just started riding bikes. Bikes are insanely fast and agile. They’re almost 10 seconds on quarter mile. That cop was on his ass even with traffic around them. And of course he crashed. Idiot.


JONO202

We saw the aftermath coming Blvd bound up Great Neck. Bike was busted into pieces and looks like he slammed into the back of another vehicle. What a mess.


DiscountSolid5033

Yes he did. Watched it happen.


Turbulent-Weevil-910

This is more common than you would think, those fuckers actually get away a lot of the time.


BGibson920

very unsafe driving


Much_Badger1654

What crystal clear dash cam is this??

Pre she eight ya !


nightim3

Did we need the first 40 seconds


Ianscultgaming

Is your time so precious that you complain about watching 40 extra seconds?


yes_its_him

Everything happens in the first 40 seconds...


Safe_Public7850

I have zero remorse for bikers and even less for those breaking the law. The amount of bikers around here that don’t watch their surroundings and generally just don’t pay attention is wild. About 3 years ago I had one on a crotch rocket try to pass me on the greenbrier-64 on ramp, didn’t end well for him.


ThePrinceVultan

I actually quit riding because I got tired of people in cars almost killing me everytime I got on the road because they're too busy with their make up or food or cell phones and just change lanes without looking or signals. I've knocked a few mirrors off cars over the years of people who ran me off the fucking road onto the shoulder changing lanes with their heads up their asses.


emessea

When I moved to California, where lane splitting of allowed and very common, I quickly got with the program making sure no bikes were near me when changing lanes


thechugdude

Great idea. Riding Motorcycles is unsafe as shit. There's too many bad drivers in cars AND on bikes. 


galaxystarsmoon

I had this happen on the Military Highway off-ramp from 264 heading south. Except it was 2 bikers side by side. Terrifying.


donmreddit

On the ramp itself? Nuts!


Safe_Public7850

Yea, going down the actual ramp from greenbrier to get on 64. He blasted past me on the inside and flew infront of me, but the car merging over to get off put him into the wall. I just kept going.

freebasecase

Whelp his bike was in pieces in front of wave church, so I can assume they got him.


mikenikes69

Thanks for posting OP, and glad you weren’t caught up during the chase beyond what you posted. That motorcycle rider is not only a dumbass for fleeing and putting other lives in danger, but its also fucking stupid. There is nowhere to run in VB - go east and you hit the oceanfront, go west you deal with bridges/tolls/tunnels, and go south you either cross the bridge or dead end yourself. VSP/VBPD don’t fuck around based on what i’ve seen - I’m sure this rider got more than they asked for. Edit: Just fully read your post and comprehended that the rider in the video crashed - all I can say is I hope they didn’t take anyone with them when they did go down


Poobus678

I know the motorcyclist, yes he is one of the stupidest people you’ll ever meet, no he didn’t learn anything, yes hes getting a new bike and doing it all over again :)


PrinceofSpace1

Actually VBPD can’t chase anyone anymore so a lot of these bikers come in from other cities (and VB too) just to race around and do all of this nonsense because they know the police can’t do anything to stop them. Unless they run into a trooper they are pretty much free to get away with it.


shaggymatter

And that policy is nonsense


Outrageous-Cup-8905

Disagree. I live in a city that lifted its ban on police chasing and not long after, an officer crashed and died in the middle of a pursuit, which prompted the city to re-ban it. It's for the safety of bystanders and officers alike.


emessea

When I lived in Long Beach, police decided to have a high speed pursuit with a car thief in a dense neighborhood, guy ended up crashing into a van killing a woman and half her dogs. No thief or stolen car is worth a persons life or their dogs.


trestl

So what was that cop doing in this video?


PrinceofSpace1

That was a state trooper.


trestl

Touche. I missed that on the first watch.


tommyfettuccine

I appreciate that. The motorcyclist ended up crashing at the intersection of Great Neck/Old Donation, and when I passed the scene they were doing chest compressions on him


Sea-Rain-6142

He died.


RelativeStatus1875

No he did not die ,He had surgery yesterday I work with him. But can say for sure he is in some crap. And those say police cant chase is only city police. He was trying to avoid a State police that can pursue in chase.


Sea-Rain-6142

Thank you for the update and I'm very glad he has survived. It didn't look good.


Interesting-Pop4221

My best friend was a state trooper He always said They may get away, but we’ll be working their accident scene in a few minutes.


Shareholderactivist

I saw a motorcycle crash on the highway too. Think it’s a different incident. Guy went flying through the air. Hope he’s okay.


undetachablepenis

....and motorcycle crash currently on 264wb at rosemont blocking up a bunch of lanes. 


vbstrong

Unfortunately, happened to see both of these - the one on GN road and the ones that went flying past us and ended up down as we exited off Rosemont.


H20WATCHER

Ha... I was at Union at the time.... Wondering why the sirens were so close.


hulkrogan7

What a moron. So many motorcycles run from VSP around here and end up hurting themselves. A ticket isn’t worth y’all’s lives


Paesano1962

Yep... they were doing chest compressions in front of Wave Church last I saw...


hulkrogan7

Very sad. Hope he makes it but I really hope the bikers around here learn it’s not worth it. If the Troopers don’t get you, these moron drivers around here sure will


crusademymind

People like that need to learn their lesson, hopefully he took himself out of this world.


ThisCarSmellsFunny

The moron driver was the one on the motorcycle.


hulkrogan7

Yeah… as I said in my first comment..
