Bicycle Ninja Pulled Over on 'Police Women of Broward County' (VIDEO)
Det. Julie Bower has seen a lot of things in her many years of police work, but a cyclist who thinks his martial arts skills will save him from being injured by a car was a new one on her.On 'Police Women of Broward County' (Thu., 9PM ET on Lifetime) Det. Brower pulled over a guy riding his bicycle down the middle of the highway after he ran a red light. Not only that, he was also riding one-handed as he was busy talking on his cell phone.
The laidback cyclist seemed unconcerned by the danger he was creating for himself and other road users, and bragged "I normally go about 20 miles an hour on this ... 'cause I'm really athletic."
When Det. Bower warned him that drivers might not see him coming, and could hit him, he just shrugged and offered a bizarre explanation of why that's not a problem for him. "Well ... I do karate a lot. If anything happens I can just jump off the bike."
An incredulous Det. Bower asked the cycling warrior, "You can't karate-chop a car, can you?", to which he scoffed, "No, but I can jump over it."
Wow. So, because he's in shape and knows karate, our cycling ninja's pretty sure he can peddle down the middle of the highway at 20 miles an hour, while talking on his cell phone, and somehow, in an emergency, his training will just kick in and enable him to jump off the bike and over an oncoming vehicle.
We sure hope for all concerned that he'll never be callled upon to put these bizarre road safety skills into action. Don't try this at home, kids.
