We talking Hells Angels here, with Hogs, leather jackets and all? Or wussy
bicycles that you'll barely notice as they pass under your rear wheels?

A day or two ago I read somewhere about 100 - 150 wild motorbikers in
the Saint Louis area were causing some problems.

Well then it depends on what kind of car the OP was driving. A big bike can
actually do some damage to a compact car. You might take out that one
biker, but once your car comes to a stop, you are surrounded by his
buddies.

My truck could easily take out even the biggest Hog. And barely slow down.
So that's not an issue in my case.

If this is an ongoing problem and the cops haven't put a stop to it yet, I'd
suspect that a few drivers will arm themselves and start thinning the herd
pretty soon.
