Default On My Way To The Airport... OWNAGE!


I'm driving down S101... this dude in the pickup truck full of pocket bikes has one that flies out! Another car hits it and I drive back for the shot!

What would be so bad about that. Those things are just stupid and I hate them. Maybe it would rid the earth of more stupidity.

So what would you say about Go-Karts? Be a man and get a real car? I'll agree that the fools that ride around on the streets are idiots but would you rather lowside your 7-10k bike at a race track or rollaround alittle on a pocketbike? Pocket bikes have been around for quite awhlie. In fact, its quite big in Japan and europe. Kids gotta start somewhere. Don't characterize and entire sport by a few idiots.

I never see these things when I drive down 101. Also, do you carry your camera everywhere you go? thought of changing your profession?

Aww man, that sucks....it looks like he was transporting a whole bunch of them too....

Also, while I don't condone the idea of riding those things around the streets like some idiots I've seen, I don't know about wanting these folks getting run over and killed....I dunno, that just seems a little extreme to me.....If anything, getting busted by the cops should suffice.....
