JetSet Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 BBC are reporting that it was the birthday of the 16 year old girl. How awful. Pete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simonlap Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 Two night ago whilst driving my Nissan X trail along A45 between Coventry and Meriden, I was undertaken at speed (I was at 60) by 20 or more bikes including quads, scooters, motorcycles, some bikes doing wheelies whilst going past. I slowed down for obvious reasons. One of the quads and several bikes then stopped in lane two. I put my hazards on to slow cars behind me then as quick as a flash they proceeded to pull away again on one wheel, trick riding etc. This is the behaviour that I have now become acustomed to when several motorcycles are riden in groups. I'm afraid that I have no sympathy left for idiots on either side of the fence be they car or motorcycle drivers. I know my limits, I know the only place to drive fast is the track. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

docwra Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 I've never seen anyone behaving while driving these quad bikes on the road. I know a guy who drove from Cambridge to Southend on one. With only two wheels touching the ground at any point. Nutter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

STEVE K Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 Only time ive ever driven at night was to get to the Lakes for early morning .. hear bikers ragging it and high performance motors on our ring roads frequently on fine weather nights. But its down to driving style not being aggressive towards other road users and only using power at appropriate times Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STEVE K Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 So the quad had no lights it out accelerated the car [a350z) forget the vehicles it is the mentality of the driver that is the issue in fact when out for a rag do it without engaging other road users 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've not seen either of these things reported yet Just curious (No lights and out accelerating the Zed) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've not seen either of these things reported yet Just curious (No lights and out accelerating the Zed) Sounds like more speculation to me CJ Unless of course Steve K can tell us otherwise? *edit* apparently quad bikes not rgeistered with DVLA do not have the correct lighting or tyre standards. Police have confirmed this quad bike was not registered with DVLA. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3251800/Pictured-Four-friends-died-16th-birthday-party-tragedy-sports-car-hit-unlicensed-quad-bike.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJRamze Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 I saw that they do not have to have lights, Bit that doesn't mean it doesn't have them. I'm interested though because my original suspicion was it had no lights on the back! Sent from my Galaxy Note 4 with Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
