The Honda crotch rocket rider was traveling at approximately

85 mph. The VW driver was talking on a cell phone when she

pulled out from a side street, apparently not seeing the

motorcycle. The riders reaction time was not sufficient

enough to avoid this accident.

The car had two passengers

and the bike rider was found INSIDE the car with them.

The Volkswagen actually flipped over from the force of impact

and landed 20 feet from where the collision took place.

 

All three involved (two in the car and the bike rider) were

killed instantly. This graphic demonstration was placed at

the Motorcycle Fair by the Police and Road Safety Department..

Pass this on to car drivers or soon to be

new drivers, or new motorcycle owners

AND ESPECIALLY EVERYONE YOU KNOW WHO HAS A CELL PHONE!!!!!

A picture is worth a thousand words.

 

Save a life…

 

Stop talking on Cell phones and Texting while trying to drive.

The life you save may be your own..... or mine...

cant see any of the images.

 

Another Problem is when a bike is going way over the speed limit even an attentive driver will pull out. A small bike, going way-way over the speed limit, looks like a bike going the speed limit. very few people can judge the speed of oncoming vehicles. This is why you see people pull out in front of a train going 100mph. the train looks like it's going 30 mph and there is enough room to safely cross.

 

The crotch rocket rider, if he was doing 85 wrote his own death warrant doing that on a road that had cross streets. That said, I have seen Suburbans cut in 1/2 with a harley bagger. The guy on the harley left a 1500 foot long black mark and was doing near 100 mph when he t-boned the truck. he left the black mark because he did not know how to ride, only used the back brake.
