Why would a person who is breaking the law by operating a dirt bike on a roadway even think they have to stop at a STOP sign !
My sympathy is with the person in the car who has this a memory ..
Karma acted here ..
Running a stop sign can obviously lead to getting in an accident. As soon as the dirt bike rider took to the pavement they were breaking laws. As a fellow cycle owner, I have no sympathy for this rider. I hope the vehicle operator is able to get repair costs from the illegal dirt bike rider. Hopefully they learn from their mishap…and stop giving responsible riders a bad rap.
Possibly a pre-teen or teenager with no supervision .
