Description

Illegal East Shore ATV's 2

(Originally posted 12/20/09 but closed by others as "too old.")

Reckless noisy clowns on Quads/ ATVs and dirt bikes (along with snowmobiles in the winter) have been plauging East Shore, & all over New Haven for years blasting up and down Townsend Ave. & side streets & noisily tearing up Black Rock Fort, park land & across lawns etc.

They dangerously disobey traffic laws, running stop signs & traffic signals, zigzagging across the centerline towards oncoming traffic, cutting off cars etc.

As posted in original post, most recent dirtbike sighting was lastnight traveling down Townsend by Nathan Hale School and then back again headed towards the highway. Couldn't make out bike color in dark but rider was hefty WM with crewcut.
For what it's worth, word is one of the local East Shore riders might be the person who posts New Haven "bikelife" & girl-streetfight videos on YouTube like this of his taken on Ferry Street:
