Roethlisberger twist in story

[neuthunder]

sooo apparently he didnt have a motorcycle license......
PITTSBURGH (AP) -- Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger did not have a valid motorcycle license when he crashed into a woman's car last week, and the driver -- who will be cited for failing to yield -- has received threatening phone calls.

Roethlisberger will be issued $388 in fines and fees for riding without a license and not wearing a helmet, police Collision Investigator Dan Connolly said Monday. Only licensed motorcyclists are allowed to ride bareheaded in Pennsylvania, with certain restrictions.

The Super Bowl champion quarterback rammed his Suzuki Hayabusa into a woman's Chrysler New Yorker on June 12 when she was making a left turn in front of him. Both had the green light.

Roethlisberger underwent seven hours of surgery to repair a broken jaw and other facial bones. Tests showed no brain injuries, although he had a mild concussion; he also lost two teeth and chipped several others......

Didn't have a VALID license. When I came back to Vermont a few years ago, I switched my license and they never gave me the motorcycle endorsement. I got pulled over almost 2-yeras later by a local cop (thank god) who gave me a warning and informed me that I might want to call the DMV becuase, according to their records, I did not have a valid motorcycle license. So... the license thing could have been a minor technicality.
