James Kaufman, World News Report, today.
Ladies and gentlemen,
people wanted to argue with me about the theft of dirt bikes.
Well, it's an epidemic in the Baltimore,
Maryland area and other areas in the northeast of our country.
And I thought I'd go over just a few articles,
although I could do this all day long.
Now, people need to realize that you can't ride
a dirt bike on the streets.
It's not a street legal.
Uh, well, vehicle of any sorts.
It doesn't have blinkers.
It doesn't have a license plate.
You can't register it.
Uh, you obviously can't get insurance
if it doesn't have a license plate.
And, obviously, when you give
the serial number to the insurance companies,
well, they're going to know exactly what kind of bike it is instantly.
So, here is Kendrick Anderson.
He stole six, six dirt bikes.
It says it right here, six dirt bikes, one of them at gunpoint.
And this is January 15, 2025.
Now, again, there is no special permit
that allows these people to ride on any streets.
The reason people don't stop them is because it's almost impossible,
unless you get really ugly, to stop someone on a dirt bike.
Let's keep going now.
This is 6-1 at gunpoint.

but they're going as far as Pennsylvania to steal these bikes.
These bikes were stolen in Pennsylvania and found here.
at homes at the 2,500 block of James Street
and 1,000 block of Rock Hill Avenue.
And these are very expensive bikes.
Y'all must understand that these bikes go from $7,500 to $15,000,
depending on what you have here.
And the owner of the stolen dirt bikes was grateful,
blah, blah, blah, right?
All the way to Baltimore and Pennsylvania.
Now, my advice to you is to go ahead
and put an Apple AirTag up where someone will never
find it, because even if your motorcycles
are chained up at your home, there's a very
good chance they'll be stolen.
Here are 33 illegal dirt bikes
and ATVs seized from a motorcycle dealer, used motorcycle
dealer, because they're all stolen.
and here we have a video 186 illegal dirt bikes have
been seized this year so far
this was another seizure of several stolen dirt bikes they're
not illegal just sitting there
the illegal if you've uh branched the serial number off of them
or if they're stolen now this is just
a two month period this was actually from
September 2022 to January 1st, 2023,
186 dirt bikes, it's been thousands.
This is the tip line.
They store these things in, well, paid-for storage units.

And they're not going to take anyone's dirt bike unless,
well, something's wrong with it.

but I have better things to do.

to ride, well, non-street-worthy bikes on the streets.
Yes, I realize it's part of the culture.
But it's a part of the culture that's about to stop.
