He used his laser gun to determine their speed, and motioned for the riders to stop. Two of the riders pulled over without incident, but the third rider skidded for over 50 meters before dropping his motorcycle.
Police say the riders aged 22, 23 and 24 are all from Abbotsford.
All three motorcycles have been seized for seven days at the owner’s expense.
In addition, all of the riders received $368 tickets.
