Witnesses are reacting with disdain after a motorcyclist was seen standing on a motorcycle while driving down Richmond Row in sight of London police officers over the weekend.
Witnesses are reacting with disdain after a motorcyclist was seen standing on a motorcycle while driving down Richmond Row on Saturday.
The stunt was captured on video and posted to social media site Reddit.
Steve Walmsley, manager of Running Room on Richmond Street, didn’t have to see the video because he saw the incident with his own eyes.
“So I saw the motorcycle pull up in between the two cars at the red light,” explains Walmsley. “He was standing up on the motorcycle. He proceeded to just blow right through the red light. Top speed. No regard for any other traffic that was going through.”
Even more shocking is that police officers can be seen in the video on both sides of Richmond Street.
However, it’s not clear whether they even noticed the motorcycle driver because they appeared to take no action.
