    Now that's just a shitty outcome. Whoa. i like how the rate of speed was in one writing 85, then in another 155. In either case it's a bad deal. Yes one needs to keep an eye out for sure, but in this case it was lousy timing.

    This is one example of where ATGATT would make no difference, paying attention and being aware of your surroundings may have helped, on both sides of the equation!

    That picture has been around for a while. Agreed. Very ugly and reminder of how exposed we would be. Always be aware and careful, folks.

    No way that was 155MPH. That motorcycle would have detonated at that speed.

    As was said, sobering. To little emphasis is put on what can happen to anything including us, at high velocities. Culprits include driving schools, drivers education classes and the cops not issuing citations for every asshole who is talking or texting on a cellphone. Even the pic of the bike in the VW was sanitized with a firehose and enzymes.

    In the wings, some of this cellphone shit will come to a halt when somebody famous either buys it or kills some poor person when a cell was being used while in motion.

    Getting off to pix like the above is for sick fucks, Using the same pix for making irrefutable lessons is quite another.
