Looking at a motorcycle here at 88.
00:05
He's also about a mile and a half out from Dodge.
00:13
Stay with them.
00:17
Roger.
00:20
Throwing down now, was it 88, he's in the curve.
00:24
And number two lane, now number three lane, he might exit here at Dodge Street.
00:32
Following too close, he's about two car lengths back on the one in front of them, so we can do a warning for that here too.
00:38
Hitting the exit ramp now and accelerating up the exit ramp.
00:44
Not far from setting the exit ramp.
00:47
All right, we're just coming to the top of the ramp. Looks like he's going to come northbound.
00:51
Yeah.
00:52
he's going to come northbound, so just sit there at the top and I'll bring him right to you.
00:58
Okay, southbound.
01:00
Yeah, yeah, sorry, southbound.
01:04
All these circles are getting to me.
01:11
So let the red light.
01:19
Now southbound.
01:22
The number one lane.
01:30
It comes to vehicle number one here at the light, now making his way through, 88 was the speed on about it, high 80.
01:37
He's right to follow two close, 942, and I don't have a speed there over high weight or over top of 80, but he looked over 45.
01:52
He definitely lost. He slammed out a six pretty hard. I could see that he was on them.
01:57
Yeah, that was pretty evident.
02:00
Again, 88,
02:01
and a warning for volatility goes at time.
02:05
We'll go 940 there, backtrack to 940.
