THIS is the crash that finally got a “goading” teen locked up – just weeks after he got a cop who rammed him off an e-bike sacked.
Mason McGarry was first riding with pal Dominic Mizzi when they were clipped by ex-PC Tim Bradshaw in his police car.

Veteran officer Bradshaw was cleared of causing serious injury by dangerous driving but was forced to leave his job after 22 years.
Then just one month later, serial offender McGarry was involved in another police chase – this time in a friend’s car.
The yob, who has 42 previous convictions – including for robbery, theft and dangerous driving – was captured dangerously trying to evade police.
Footage shows McGarry trying to edge out of a t-junction with no regard for other motorists’ safety.
The teen then mounted the pavement at 60mph before smashing into a lorry – causing more than £1,000 worth of damage.
He was sent to a young offender’s institution for 12 months after he admitted dangerous driving, aggravated vehicle taking, driving whilst disqualified, failing to stop and driving without insurance.
Portsmouth Crown Court heard McGarry was driving his sister and two others in the borrowed Vauxhall when his friend called police to say the car had not been returned.
Officers began a pursuit through Chichester as the teen drove at 60mph in a 40mph zone in a bid to shake them off.
The court heard his list of previous convictions was “unenviable” and includes offences of drug possession, trafficking and two dangerous driving convictions.
Sentencing, Judge Jodie Mittell said: “The concern I obviously have is that the fifth time he will kill someone.
“That could be his sister.”
At PC Bradshaw’s trial in February, the court heard the crash took place while the officer was driving a marked Ford Focus.
He said he tried to follow the e-bike after it rode past his car on the pavement in an attempt to “goad” him.
Bradshaw said the same bike later pulled in front of him which is when he chose to make “tactical contact” at around 30mph.
But he claimed only he “nudged” the electric bike with the bumper of his vehicle and that it was Mizzi’s “own stupid fault”.
Bradshaw, who is now retired, added: “It was light contact, it was light enough, there was not a blemish on my police car.
“I believed it was a justified, necessary action.”
During a voluntary interview with police, he also branded McGarry a “feral” teenager and someone who “just doesn’t get it, just doesn’t stop”.
A jury took just over an hour to reach their verdict and clear Bradshaw of causing serious injury by dangerous driving.
He was also found not guilty of a charge of causing serious injury by driving without due care and attention.
The retired cop later claimed his colleagues are now fearful of taking direct action in dangerous situations because of the potential consequences.
