AIRBEAR.AERO IN THE NEWS
A group of bikers thought it would be a good idea to go and show off their biking skills on the Oakland/San Francisco Bay Bridge Sunday evening.
Riding dirt bikes and ATV vehicles, they rode across the bridge pulling stunts and harassing drivers. CHP ground units engaged only to follow the bikers because they knew they had an “eye in the sky” and did not want to create an even more dangerous situation with a chase.
CHP utilizing Air Bear aircraft were able to keep tracking the bikers as they dispersed and returned to their homes or hang-out spots and detain them. The bikers thought they had eluded police and never realized they were being followed.
Speeders soon find in court that video proof makes it very difficult to talk your way out of a ticket.
