Not sure if the first law once out of the committee is set in stone but this will definately be a big problem for any stunt riders out there!

Glad I dont live in Florida. What sucks though if it does what they think its gonna do in Florida (stop people from riding reckless which it probably wont) then they're gonna start passing that **** all over the US. Then I'll move to Europe lol.

this only applies to the street or lots too? cause i mean if ur in a lot with permission and theres no public acsess i find it unreasonable for them impose those sanctions i mean wtf

DURTY

see 80 views VS 22 in {sports bike discussion}!

The police are ok around here as long your not doin the **** on streets .........and most of the time they just tell us pack it up so I guess were pretty lucky

P.S. I always thought cops were pretty cool up in Orlando

DLISH

permit riding :YEAH

2kgixx

that sucks, here they just take the bike for 7 days and slap u with a nice fine along with a big impounding and storage fee

Looks like the bill talks about anytime a bike is operated. This makes it apply to all situations where you are riding a bike...private property or not. Basically, they are trying to kill all stunt riding all together...damn old people...

EnderWiggin

Start learning how to out run cops

WhiteBoy561

what about the people who bring bikes in trucks and such just run and leave your vehicles behind

PheAkrIder88

man FTP!!!! STUNTUN'S NOT A CRIME!!

plus a bitch dont like a guy who cant get it up

EnderWiggin

Good point.

I don't see how this will encourage safer riding, it seems given the option you're probably going to get fucked, whats the difference between out running them or just getting your **** fucked? It will be interesting to see if there will be more chases of bikers now that these bills are introduced.

they cant carry out these laws if your on private property with permission... think about it for a second, are the cops going to be waiting at stuntshows to arrest everyone?

and how harshly will they enforce this in the lots that you dont have permission to ride at? they will probably just keep tellin you to pack up and leave.

xXxNO LOVExXx

well apparently it will be in florida if this law passes... and this ftp **** is gettin old man! they are just doing their job. and how many cool cops have you run into as opposed to ******** ones? **** we have a spot that the cops sit and watch us ride. someone left a helmet at the spot once and they picked it up, and rolled through the next nice night to return it too us

Afflicted

+1 i run into nice cops more then i run into ******** ones, and they usually cut you slack

i mean i dont like the police or the law, but they arent all ********

but none of them are your friend, you cant trust them

cuz in the end they are just doin their job

FrankieG

This is the whole bill!

THis is a suspension of your motorcycle privlidge not your ability to operate a car. This really sucks because it states an officer SHALL, SHALL SHALL....arrest and impound. They don't give an officer the ability to make his own mind up.
