Nad Yacks (Mad Max with N.Y)

2013 Reader Submission
Pending Acceptance

Summary. Biker Edwin Mieses Jr. Walks INFRONT of a Sports Utility Vehicle, which is being attacked by a group of angry bikers (and according to some reports. TIRE SLASHED) and is run over by a panicking Lien. . Misese according to his family who is suing the SUV driver (Mr Lien), claims his legs are crushed, his spine is crushed, his ribs are crushed, and is Paralyzed (presumably his neither regions of his body are neutralized, numb penis as nerve damage).

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bz1ANevQ03E (although the pixilated graphics of video is not clear).

Rationale of Darwin (although he was hit by someone else).

Note Mieses was in full control of his mind and body (as he was riding his bike), and according to lawyers (for Mises), trying to calmly rationally talk his fellow bikers to stop attacking Mr Leins car (slashing tires), surrounding him, etc.

1. Tense situation, calls for staying the "F" away from such danger. According to reports Mieses was trying to defuse the other Max Mad warriors, and was walking away from the SCV, his back was turned. However. Walking infront of a larger vehicle is still not a wise thing to do.

Like would someone sane stand infront of a Bull, that is charging? A speeding train? (note early in the video. Lein hits another driver. That should be proof that some road raging (Lein), is likely to happen.. (one of the first things drivers are taught about road rage, regardless of who is at fault (Lein), or the stunting idiot who pulls infront of him. The intelligent thing is to let the offending driver go.. (Lein).

2. According to this video. Lein was a erratic driver, and this prompted them (Misses was in the group), to swarm him (likely to get him to stop)..... a giant speeding SUV with thicker armor, vs little skinny motorcycles.. One driver although not Mises even drives INFRONT of Lein... who bumped him. This should be an indicator that Mr Lein is very frightened or angry, and that maybe attacking him might intensify and provoke something bad....... oh say Mr Lein trying to drive away.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OFY5MMWzjiI the smart thing to do is just let him go call the police....

Like even Animals know it's not smart to attack something bigger than you. So like a cat they shy away. (Like some of the Bikers did in the video. (moments before the accident. they get out of the way). So Misese was quite foolish although he wasn't among the attackers... he did walk infront...

3. http://www.cnn.com/2013/09/30/us/new-york-bikers-road-rage-video/ Full Video....

4. Mieses wasn't a part of a bike gang... but a bike flash mob "Hollywood Block Party" called "Hollywood Stuntz" who's goal is to congregate downtown New York. As seen early in the video... hogging the road gliding around the SUV, driving infront of it.Isn't exactly a smart thing to do...something crazy was bound to happen... As the bikers found alternative routes into the city, that the roads weren't designed for hordes of stunting cyclists.

Thanks, but this whole situation violates a number of our posted rules. First there's no self selection since this person wasn't responsible for the driver panicking and hitting the gas. Second, I simply don't find anything even remotely amusing about the whole incident, and since the driver of the SUV eventually ended up hospitalized after suffering a severe beating then this violates our hurt bystander rule as well.
