According to past experience talking with Lemmy users:
This is inevitable. You just can’t fix this. Shit happens.
Since the only solution to this is police doing things, but that would be ACAB.
So just let them break every traffic law and let them run over pedestrians. There’s nothing you can do.
I feel this one in my soul.
Now throw in how Jellyfin is the best thing ever and that motorcyclists would never do this and you’ve hit the trifecta.
Lol something something spike strips.
This is perfectly safe. I know this because I’m watching what appears to be surveillance footage of the event, and as we all know surveillance keeps us all safe and protects everyone shown from any harm.

Are these things street legal?
Oh, wait, Birmingham.

Lol So much description in a single word. Thank you
Sure, but this isnt in Alabama judging by the cars driving on the left side of the road and the tesco express…this isnt in the states
I interpreted that as Birmingham UK is filled with drunken redneck idiots
By order of the Peaky fookin’ Bloinders!
Are you from Birmingham?
I spent a good chunk of my childhood in Birmingham, Alabama, and I can guarantee you there are no Tesco expresses or left-handed driving.
Okay, well, there is a little bit of left-handed driving, but it’s generally frowned upon.
No, Ive never lived in Alabama, but I’ve driven through and can safely say you would never see this on the streets of Birmingham, AL.
There are enough places people could go and ride in the country, also cops would just shoot them claiming they were putting people at risk…
Oh, I see the confusion. He was comparing Birmingham, UK, to Alabama for a point of reference for Americans (e.g. Birmingham is to the UK as Alabama is to the US). But what made it confusing is half the audience is thinking the town of Birmingham, Alabama.
Yeah, it’s mostly “southern hospitality” and a bunch of people saying roll tide there. Everyone knows a place to go mudding/dirt bike riding /ATVs etc if they have the money for it.
In the U.S. “country” people who have money have access to land they own. Those too poor, can’t afford ATVs to race in the streets nor afford the repercussions.
That’s being too kind
Bit of the old ultraviolent, my brothers.
Me and the boys on the way to a milk bar.
Motorcycle hooligans are cooler
It really looks like that’s a one way street
I just can’t give a shit. These kids have had their futures stolen from them, and they entertain themselves like this, I say good for them.
Looks like the boys are just having a bit of fun.
Looks like 4 douchebags who think they’re the main characters
Well sure, but isn’t that the culture these days? Let the boys be rebels, rules are for losers after all…
No. They almost killed a pedestrian. Let them go kill themselves if they want to rebel like that alone on a private dirt track.
Lol cars almost kill pedestrians every single day.
And it’s crazy we just accept that! It is not normal to simply accept that people die on the streets every day!
I agree with you. These boys on quads will not kill anyone as fast as them doing the same shit in a car.
I don’t give a shit what they’re on, killing them slowly vs quickly is still killing them.
