Motorcyclist dressed as Santa outruns cops in high-speed chase
The festive motorcyclist was cruising through Beverly Hills when a highway patrol trooper spotted him recklessly weaving in and out of traffic, reaching a dangerously high speed of 120 miles per hour. The dashcam footage shows the biker refusing to slow down for a traffic stop, forcing the officer to engage in a hot pursuit.
In an attempt to shake off the trooper, the biker switched multiple lanes. As the officers continued to follow his tracks despite jumping lanes, the biker cut through a gas station. He went back to the main road again, forcing the cop to slow down. The biker eventually disappeared, according to the thrilling clip.
“The sleigh must be in the shop, but last night Mr. Claus didn’t pause for any cause. Anyone that recognizes ol’ St. Nick please feel free to call *FHP (*347) and let us know!” the Florida Highway Patrol -Tampa wrote on X, sharing the dashcam footage.
