I've never flipped off anyone in a car, but I've been flipped off a few times. Some people just like to raise that middle digit. I just don't understand the need to antagonize people.

NYPD: Biker Arrested, Another Surrenders In Attack On SUV Driver
Wife Of Biker Says SUV Driver Ran Over, Paralyzed Husband

Biker Christopher Cruz, 28, has been charged with reckless endangerment, reckless driving, endangering the welfare of a child and menacing, police said. He was awaiting arraignment on Tuesday.

The second man who turned himself in to police was suspected of punching out the windshield of the Range Rover. He had not been charged as of late Tuesday afternoon.

Police said they were looking to make more arrests as they sort through the chaos, which was all captured on video.

Meanwhile, biker Edwin Mieses, an aspiring rapper from outside Boston, was in a medically-induced coma Tuesday with crushed legs and serious internal injuries as a result of being run over by the SUV.

“There’s no hope for his back. They crushed his spine — broke it in two different places — so he will be forever, forever paralyzed,” said his wife, Dayana Mejia-Meises.

He was hurt in the road rage incident Sunday afternoon as hundreds of stunt bikers led an unauthorized rally.

Mejia-Mieses said her husband got off his bike to help a biker who was hit in the initial collision.

“When all the bikers stopped, my husband got out, parked his bike to walk over to try to help his friend. He walked over towards the front of the vehicle when, at this point, I don’t know what happened the man was scared, the man just peeled off and ran over my husband,” she told WBZ-TV.

Mieses said her husband has injuries to his heart, lungs and ribs and that he is paralyzed from the waist down. The couple has two children, ages 15 and 9.

SUV driver Lien, 33, has not faced any charges in the incident.

In order to prevent the group from heading into Times Square this year, police set up checkpoints throughout the city. Kelly said during that effort, 15 arrests were made, 68 summonses were issued and 55 motorcycles were confiscated.

The NYPD released a photo Tuesday of two bikers who investigators said were part of the melee. One driver has a Guyana flag on the tail end of his bike and the other has a black and white design, police said. Police said they were wanted for assault.

Is this about to turn into Trayvon Martin round 2?

Probably. But I think Zimmerman had a much more solid case.

Has there been any solid information about what started all of this yet? I haven't seen any.

I wonder if at any point vehicles surrounding you and forcing you to stop is considered an aggressive act that warrants defensive measures being taken, and if said defense could hold up in court.

I'm absolutely sure that "temporary insanity" brought on by fearing for the life of your child would hold up in a jury of average Americans should, say, murder charges not be dismissed.
