Two men are lucky to be alive after a close call last night. Hampton RCMP spotted two motorcycles doing wheelies just after six o'clock on Highway 100 and pulled them over. When the officer was getting out of his vehicle, both motorcycles took off. One of the drivers, a 21-year old man from St. Stephen, looked over his shoulder to see where the officer was when he crashed into the other motorcycle driven by a 28-year old Saint John man.
Both were rushed to the Regional, checked out and sent home. Officers have issued several fines to both drivers who will appear before a judge as well concerning their driving habits.
