I'm absolutely appalled at the responses online and in this thread.
Let me make this very clear, the bikers were not mob or gang related, they were people who ride bikes from every neck of the woods from touring to sports. An innocent man was paralyzed for life attempting to help after the SUV rear ended a biker.
There's plenty of blame to go around here both to the SUV driver and many of the bikers. I'd hope the SUV driver would be charged, he didn't need to be so reckless by plowing people indiscriminately. The bikers who harassed, followed and attacked the SUV driver were acting unlawfully as well. There's a point where the victim can become the assailant.
Also, clearly many don't know what the bikers were doing, so I'll explain. The point of slowing down and stopping traffic was to clear the road ahead in order to perform bike tricks. Clearly this is a lacking fact which many are ignorant of in this situation.
I'm also seeing, "The driver should've been armed." Even if the incident happened in Pennsylvania, I'd like to see a person win a case shooting another from within a vehicle. You see road rage cases all the time where a firearm is used, the person who fires the gun is charged and convicted.
Clearly the wife and child were not in danger, as you can even see in the vehicle the bikers only focused on the driver who unlawfully plowed people and vehicles indiscriminately.
Let me just say this, even if the driver isn't charged, the people who were injured will sue the driver in to oblivion for injuries obtained from the impact.
