The traffic jam that occurred when the group was stopped in Hinterrhein did not bother anyone. On the contrary, the motorists applauded the police for taking action against the reckless group of motorcyclists.

The Graubünden cantonal police stopped a group of 16 motorcyclists after the San Bernardino Pass in Hinterrhein GR on Sunday. The Swiss group had previously attracted attention due to their reckless behavior and resisted a check.

The group first overtook a car in a tunnel despite the safety line and tore off its wing mirror. When a patrol tried to stop the motorcyclists in San Bernardino, they resisted and drove off in the direction of the pass, as the cantonal police of Graubünden reported on Monday.
The officers finally managed to stop the group after the pass in Hinterrhein. This caused traffic obstructions.
Cheering and clapping from passers-by
However, instead of annoyed drivers, the police officers were celebrated by a "large number of road users driving north", as the report continued.
They cheered, clapped and waved at the police officers. This was an "unmistakable sign" that the motorcycle group had probably already attracted negative attention beforehand. All members of this group will now be charged with road traffic offenses and failure to comply with police orders.
