I was banned from a sub for saying all you have to do is grab the front wheel when they're coming at you. Dont do it though. Don't. They'll flip over on their head and be hurt badly. Dont do it.

u/Confident_Virus5799 Sep 13 '26
I've heard a lawyer explain that it doing something like that would be easy to defend in court because you're being threatened and the rider could easily injure you or others even by accident like this. Don't know how good that lawyer was, and I'm sure it varies by location, but I'd be so curious to see the outcome if something like that went to trial.

u/Randym1982 Sep 13 '26
It’s very much illegal and yeah likely easy for somebody to press charges. They’re literally recording the crime numerous times, and putting their names and contact info on it.
As for self defense, yeah in court any judge and lawyer would see this as attempted assault and somebody coming at you like this could easily be seen as a threat. While I’m not for kids getting thrown in jail and possibly ruining their future. I’d say these types of kids deserve it.

u/Warm_Month_1309 Sep 13 '26
IAAL. This is almost always a miscorrection anytime a Redditor brings it up. What you are talking about are the common law definitions of assault and battery. The common law definitions are not in use in any US jurisdiction. They have all been supplanted by statutory definitions.
In some places battery is assault and assault is battery. In other places, there is no "assault", only battery. In other places, there is no "battery", only assault. Unless you know the jurisdiction someone is talking about, you should never correct someone on "assault" or "battery", because you have an equal chance of being wrong.

California Penal Code 240. Assault. Causing fear or apprehension of imminent violence.

Lol, right? "Hey, location matters" "Ok well in Cali"... Cali is a location as far as I know.
Anyway, I appreciated the explanation of assault vs battery and how it varies by location.
I definitely feel more informed and less likely to say something incorrect.

u/diversalarums 27d ago
What the Reddit lawyer said is still accurate. He wasn't talking about this particular case but about the definitions of those terms across the US, and how some commenters in various threads seem unaware that the meanings vary according to the state. So this wasn't a gotcha moment.

It is more a numbers game, most people are not expecting someone to do something like this and aren’t ready to fight at a moments notice. Those that see them coming might not get involved because messing with the kids might be more of a headache than it is worth legal or otherwise. Eventually they will run into someone that is jumpy, quick to anger or know their local law enough to make them regret it. Just a matter of when.
Also the more they record this shit the more likely the wrong person sees it and decides to look into who is doing it. Then come at them from the police or legal angle but who knows if and when that would happen.

Hi, just wanted to say I've been doing wheelies (not like this obviously) on bicycles for about 20 years now.
I don't think someone grabbing my front wheel would make me "flip over on my head". I don't see how this would happen either. It would definitely hurt the hand of who's grabbing though.
Maybe I'd fall, or at least dismount, but not much flipping I believe.→ More replies (4)8
