Why did they stop him in the first place?

lol wut? one of the guys on the motorcyle took a hard brake in front of him. The guy in the SUV hit his brakes immediately and nudged the biker's bike in front of him because he couldn't brake hard enough. Now I'm guessing the SUV driver acted off of instinct and adrenaline after being surrounded by 100+ riders and sped off. Kill or be killed in that moment

With a story attached I can see it differently but I wouldn't have done what he did he could've killed quite a few people. He should have locked his doors and had the police there within minutes. He put his family at a bigger risk driving like a maniac.

Both parties probably will. They instigated the incident, then assaulted him and he could maybe be charged with hit and run?

It looks like there were other cars but for whatever reason they boxed him in and then a biker slowed down purposely in front of him... Looking at it a few more times they were looking for trouble with him.

my first response before reading the article:

What the f was that guy thinking? what happened? that is INSANE. you're asking for a death sentence doing that in front of that many motorcyclists.

that motorcycle gang also look pretty badass as fu, the chase, seeing dozens maybe a hundred or so motorcycles going after this range rover damn.

I don't condone violence, but I do understand why the guy at the end snapped. what if it was his wife, best friend, etc who was hit by that car.

Now that i read the article:

Motorcyclsits being dicks, and the situation is just crappy. Poor guy trying to protect his family, may have put them in even more danger, could've traumatized the child. Good to know they were okay.

just from looking at the video, the bikers had no reason to stop the car and take the matter into their own hands. You chase someone's family like a band of hyenas and they're lucky Range Rover dude didn't just take them out one by one on the highway.

Dumbazzes what's dude doing slamming his breaks in front of the car in the first place. You can see before he cuts him off he's staring down the driver and riding real close to his window. Those bikers got what they deserved if they were surrounding me and I had my wife and kid I woulda did the same thing if not tried to run down a few as they continue to follow me. Dumb punks

Is one of the riders actually dead? I'm reading conflicting reports.

the driver's mistake was to go off ramp from the highway. Me, I would have gone right onto the GW bridge and called 911 while riding into New Jersey. I would never stop my car or take local streets if I have a choice.

Range rover dude did nothing wrong. They werent following any type of road rules first off. Then he hit a guy and tried to stop and they want to attack him while his wife and kid are the in the car? I'd drive over bikes and people too if i had to get my family out of that situation.

If they felt it was a hit and run i can see them following the guy to alert the cops. PLus the motorcylce guy apparently had the whole thing on camera. They messed up when they attacked the guys car. Surround him, make him stop and then wait for the cops to come, he sped off hitting other bikes because he felt his life was at risk. I would have too.
