Police didn’t stop dozens of ATV and dirt bike riders seen driving recklessly down Gallatin Road over the weekend.

The group was caught on camera popping wheelies, swerving in and out of traffic and even driving on the median.

“I’ve never seen anything like that before,” Rob Chianelli said.

He told News 2 he was shocked at what he witnessed around 3 p.m. Sunday in East Nashville.

“It was probably about 100 ATV’s on the other side of the road – flying, weaving in and out of cars, half of them didn’t have helmets on and a bunch of them were doing wheelies and going up on to the median just causing a hole ruckus.”

Chianelli said not only were they putting their own lives at risk but other drivers on the roadway as well.

“It was extremely dangerous. They were going over the median, just weaving in and out of cars. All the other cars I saw were just driving really, really slow just not trying to accidentally hit one of them. The worst thing is, they don’t have the helmets on and they are popping wheelies and just doing it in the middle of traffic. It’s crazy.”

Metro police told News 2 driving ATVs on the road is illegal and their tricks are considered a misdemeanor.

“They are breaking every law for the road,” Chianelli said.

In September, a group was caught on camera doing the same thing, but this time Metro police said an officer was following the group of drivers with their lights on trying to prevent an accident.

Police said they didn’t want to turn on the siren because they didn’t want the drivers to take off and hurt someone.

“Hopefully they got tickets because that is just putting a lot of people in danger,” Chianelli said.

Police told News 2 they didn’t issue any tickets.

They also said they will not chase if it puts the public at risk. They do want to talk to the leadership of this ATV group to try and come up with a solution.
