Dirt Bike Tradegy

Jermaine Alexander was killed when his dirt bike collided with another vehicle on Frankford Ave. His mother thinks he died because the police were chasing him. Jermaine’s mother is very angry about how the cops were chasing after her kid, but there are other kids out there doing things that are worse than what her child was doing. The captain of the 25^th district says that when he goes to meetings the number one complaint is the noise of dirbikes. I think dirt bikes are very dangerous. They will always be very dangerous. He shouldn’t have been riding it in the street. If he was never riding it in the street he would have never got hit and he would probably still be alive today. There are public field where he can go and ride around. Somewhere safe, somewhere he most likely will not collide with another vehicle. If he was riding in a field, the cops would not have to chase him. People are still going to ride the dirt bikes, even if it is illegal. They just don’t care. This incident should be an example to what could happen to other people who ride dirt bikes where they are not suppose to be ridden. Also, if they know that the people are not going to stop, they should give them a place where they can come in and ride dirt bikes without having to worry about getting run down by the cops, instead of taking them from people and auctioning them.This is what I think about the killing of Jermaine Alexander.
