It's only been days since we told you about how the mayor of New York eyes broadcasting the process of crushing illegal motorcycles on TV. The odds that the mayor of Las Vegas is an autoevolution reader are slim to none, but there's a good chance that someone who knows him or one of his counselors does.
And they should tell the mayor about how cool such an ad-hoc DestroyTV would be. Because it looks like Las Vegas is in need of some serious, focused police action that aims to seize some illegal bikes and quads, too.

Frankly, we're still puzzled why there are no police-run YouTube channels featuring hundreds of videos of arrests, fines, bikes being impounded, and so on. Most likely because it appears that Nevada doesn't have a motorcycle law that demands that both wheels of a bike should be in contact with the ground...

However, even in the absence of such a law, riding in ways like the video after the jump shows may fall into reckless driving, to say the least. And therefore, this mandates the cops to take action in one way or another.

Needless to say, this "brave" rider had a terribly close call, missing clipping the cab by less than an inch. Had he impacted the car, both he and his bike would have most likely ricocheted out of control into the intersection. Luckily, no traffic was coming from the other road, but not everyone is that lucky all the time.

Of course, we're not surprised to see the rest of the group acting out like apes, as if this guy's deed was indeed something praiseworthy. In a way, it's funny how they start to complain and whine when the bell tolls, and it's time to talk to the cops, whether they like that or not. When busted, that is.
