  1. Charge the cop with assault and let the kid go. Driving erratically? Come on, man. Go catch some real criminals pansy trooper.

  2. This officer has a reputation for raping motorists. The motorcyclist did not want to be his next victim.

  3. No lights on not a valid traffic stop, and I don’t care who the hell you are you think your coming up and taking my key you’re in for a bad day 😊

  4. Negative he stopped at a red light. Last time I checked that's what your supposed to do right?

  5. Here you see two examples of why other states call us “mass-holes.” We are creative regarding traffic. 👍

  6. Tickets wont always prevent anything on the individual level, if someone is gonna violate traffic then they will do so. Where Traffic tickets actually help is on the majority level, most people tend to drive safer if it wont cost them money. In short, its a fear tactic

  7. Damn, reading these comments, all you bikers salty as shit. yall just grown children with cavity brains the way you leave comments.. So glad you all either get arrested or end up as road kill. Please never wear helmets.

  8. Wow! This was real fucken scary!
    1 – Trooper should've turned off bike ignition
    2 – handcuff idiot one hand to his belt!
    3 – a long choke hold would've done the trick !, suspect falling and bike stalling 😮

  9. Please remember to follow your Massachusetts mind set . Where your mask's take your shots pay more taxes. This situation happened because of climate change oh and support the war in Ukraine . That is good and good is bad 🤐😳

  10. Congratulations, now this dumbass motorcyclist is a felon with attempted murder with deadly weapon.

  11. Typical thin blue line gang activity, violating more 4th Amendment rights.

  12. Notice to Cops: if you decide to jump in front of a vehicle This is what happens. Get it? Got it? Good

  13. Should have tazed him in the face

  14. Dontthese idiots know that cops have their plate. Number the thing that ticks me off he had tobo hispanic

  15. I'm impressed he got away.

  16. It looks to me like the cop was making an unlawful stop. I live in texas and ik the laws are different in mass, but honestly, the cop got what he had coming. He should have gotten the plates and filed a warrant for an arrest if it was that big a deal.

  17. 🤔 Give him 5 years for attempted murder of a peace officer. And revoke his license for 10 years afterwards!

  18. That cop chose to put himself in danger.

  19. Title should read, " stupid egotistical cop tries to stop a bike and endangers his life over a possible speeding ticket or something petty". Get a life dude

  20. "Driving erratically" means that a cop wants to pull someone over, but has no legitimate reason. That cop shouldn't have been standing in front of a running motorcycle. It's his own fault. The poor motorcyclist was probably just terrified of getting shot.

  21. The police officer deserved what he got. You don't do that to someone. They try to abuse their authority.

  22. Massachusetts state troopers all suck anyway and always profile motorcycle riders

  23. The motorcyclist didn't run the cop into incoming traffic the idiot cop thought he was Superman and could hold back a motorcycle

  24. Unfortunately I don't see a lot of information of the cops side on this or the other video. It seams to me that the cop approached this situation poorly. I blame shitty training and bad overall cop culture. Criminals will be criminals, we can't control that, what we can control is how we deal with them. Based on the videos, there was no proper communication from the cop, no attempt of deescalate the situation, and an overall violation of someone's rights.

  25. No lights, no sirens, no signals or commands for him to pull over.

    Is that clown 🤡 even a real cop or is he just a bike thief in a costume?

  26. To bad he walked away. I think he was up to something and trying to harm that driver. Only fair to assume the worst in then sons they do the same to us.

  27. Sure hope they caught the idiot biker !

  28. you can complain about the tyrannist all ya like but it's the UN unions artificial intelligence

  29. Bikers and cops don't get along. Doesn't surprise me in the least

  30. Who stands in front of something that can run you over and what did the guy do for him to approach in the first place was it worth it

  31. As usual, the comments here are showing what an upside down world we live in of making excuses for wrong doing. The cop was doing his job.

  32. As corrupted as WVSP are…..why do I care what happens to them….

  33. I heard the dumb ass biker was charged with assault on a police officer with intent to kill, he'll be doing big time in the big house with lots of old biker friends

  34. Reasons I could never be a cop, he would have made it 20' before falling to the ground.

  35. Looks like he got out of his car at a stop light. Why does he wanna play the victim now. Pretty fucked up situation

  36. 👏 incredible spin as always. This cop is an idiot and did everything wrong.

  37. Looks like obstructing the normal flow of traffic to me.

  38. Road Pirates deserve their fate.

  39. Uhhh no he was running with it intentionally not being dragged he could have let go anytime. 😂 Y'all gotta watch the footage.he thought he was really gonna stop bro. Not a good idea from the beginning

  40. A vibrating engine between the legs can turn an idiot into even a bigger idiot.

  41. Yeah that motorcyclist is dumb he should be im jail.

  42. No no no. The cop decided to jump on the bike. The cop ran himself into traffic
