Speeding B.C. motorcyclist records highway hijinx

Hits speeds close to 300 km/h on busy highway north of Victoria

http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/britis...cle-video.html

Quote:
The RCMP on Vancouver Island are hoping to track down a motorcyclist who made a video recording of himself travelling at extremely high speed just outside of Victoria.

This video has shocked even veteran traffic officers.

The driver could be seen passing, weaving between other vehicles and driving along the centre line on the road.

At one point, the motorcycle was travelling at close to 300 km/h.

Investigators say it's lucky no one was killed.

The video was posted to YouTube a week ago and now Saanich police are looking for the driver.

Anyone with information is asked to contact them.

Ghostrider is cool overseas, but not here.

Also, his balls are made of unobtanium.

Cliffs from BCSB.
-Spent a month in hospital after the accident discussed in below video, had parts of his stomach removed.
-Over 20 VTs, currently
-Attempted to purchase a Hybusa at 19, no one would sell him one in BC, but someone in Alberta did.
-Well known within the community, won't be difficult for the RCMP to trace his identity.

So is heroin, it's especially death defying if you use a needle you find laying on Hastings. If you're going to place your life in severe jeopardy, that's your decision and one you're entitled to make, but you cannot make that decision for other road users.

A motorcycle may weigh a fraction of what a passenger vehicle does, but at 300km/h the force of it striking another vehicle is easily enough to kill it's passengers in addition to the rider.

Pics of motorcycle/car collisions in spoiler tags, mechanical gore, but no bodies shown.

Spoiler!

Don't know how 300 km feels like. But this rider is clearly an idiot. For doing what he did and for posting it online.

Being in Victoria for the past 3 months, that's something the roads there that really allows these things to happen. The highways are long and empty on both sides so I'm sure the police there deal with these kinds of things regularly, but this guy is really pushing it

i'm really kind of torn on the issue.

Seems like the part of me that likes to watch this stuff mindlessly on youtube, for whatever kind of mental rush, really dug it. It was edgy, ballsy and no one got hurt.

But then the responsible side says "hey douche you live 5 min from where that vid was taken think of the people and loved ones!!"

At least his 'innovation' will lead to more efforts to stopping this kind of stuff in the future?

I dunno. Not condoning it at all but I still thought the vid was pretty sweet.
