    BERLIN (Reuters) – A German student created a major traffic jam in Bavaria after making a rude gesture at a group of Hell's Angels motorcycle gang members, hurling a puppy at them and then escaping on a stolen bulldozer.
    German police said on Monday that after making his getaway from the Hell's Angels club, the 26-year-old dumped the bulldozer, causing a 5 km (3 miles) traffic jam near the southern town of Allershausen, local police said. He then fled to his home nearby where he was apprehended by the police.
    "What motivated him to throw a puppy at the Hell's Angels is currently unclear," said a spokesman for local police, adding that the student had lately been suffering from depression.
    The puppy was now in safe hands, the spokesman added.

        The part that isn't stated, the EU law will NOT allow a "strait pipe"!! think QUIET choppers. I know this first hand, after talking with a couple of HD riders in France a couple of years back.

          My neighbor has a new Ultra Glide, and the week he bought it, he used a sledge hammer and a metal rod to knock some of the baffles out of his stock pipes. They're not straight pipes, but they are sure LOUD! He sets of car alarms down the street as he leaves...

                Hi 'Bug,
                doubtless the Angels, being soft-hearted animal lovers, were too busy nurturing that poor puppy to chase down and apprehend the perpetrator?

                  I'm thinking that given the size difference, I'd choose not to try and follow a bulldozer, ya know the zero turn and then drive straight over me factor....
