Story[]
The Inspector is assigned to apprehend a treacherous band of motorcycle hoodlums terrorizing the countryside.
When his police cruiser is destroyed and he ends up hitting a dead end in an alleyway, he takes a motorcycle of his own into the countryside to go after Pig-Al's gang. Pig-Al dumps a puddle of motor oil into the path of the road the Inspector takes, causing him to skid off the edge and into a lake. On the next attempt, he has to do a reversal as he is faced with a lawn-cutting contraption operated by two of Pig-Al's thugs. However, he maneuvers them into a stone wall. Returning to their base, he finds Pig-Al and the other two gang members operating a helicopter device with a torpedo attached beneath. When they attempt to drop the torpedo onto the Inspector, it hangs in midair while they drop to the ground. Then the torpedo drops and explodes on them.
