R6 runs and escapes from the police, and still gets busted! Shocking footage!

They say you can't out run the radio - but it seems that this guy did just that!

Though can you talk about bad luck? 

Three police within about a 20 second span at the beginning of the video where the chase begins!

As you can expect, our rider speeds off after he sees the first car pull out after him. He seems to have a hard time putting distance between the cops and himself at first. It's worth mentioning he's on a 99-02 R6 - not the fastest of the 600cc bikes in this day and age. Still plenty of speed to get yourself into trouble with - which is exactly what happened here!

Through he was arguably driving fairly recklessly, it's what got him away from the fuzz. 

But... he still got caught!

Derek Kellett was arrested by the Greenville County Sheriff's Office and charged with five counts of reckless driving.

Where did he go wrong? Well he ignored what we would like to think is common sense!

What did he do right after his escape? He uploaded the chase footage from his helmet mounted GoPro onto his YouTube account.

Now, we aren't taking sides or saying that we're condoning this sort of behavior. However it seems like common sense that you shouldn't upload chase footage right after escaping, under your own YouTube account. 

An anonymous tip to the Sheriff's Office led them to the video and quickly discovering that it was Derek Kellett who recorded and uploaded the footage. Though unconfirmed by an official source - buzz on social media claims he was also bragging about it and self-promoting the video.

He has since been released on bond. Hopefully he learned from this life, or better, common-sense lesson!
