Horrible Motorcycle Accident

Horrible Motorcycle Accident Picture

Y'all may have seen pictures of this horrible motorcycle accident already but I wanted to post it because it shows why we need laws to stop people from texting and talking on cell phones while driving.

There were two people in the car and after the wreck, the guy on the motorcycle was lodged inside the car with them. The Volkswagon rolled over from the force of the impact and came to rest about 20 feet from where the place where the the motorcycle accident took place.

The driver of the Volkswagen was talking on her cell phone when she pulled out in front of the motorcycle. There was no way that the guy riding the bike could react in time to avoid being involved in the wreck.

But the passengers and the automobile and the motorcycle rider were killed instantly in this horrible motorcycle wreck and the this gory sight was put on display at the Motorcycle Fair by the Police and Road Safety Department.

As bikers we should forward this to automobile owners and soon to be licensed drivers as well as motorcycle owners AND ESPECIALLY EVERYONE YOU KNOW WHO TEXTS and TALKS ON A DAMN CELL PHONE WHILE ON THE ROAD because it's true that a picture is worth a thousand words and this pile of wreckage left after this horrible motorcycle accident might make an impression and save the life of a loved one.

Strike Lightning Used Motorcycles for Sale is happy to post pics of motorcycle wrecks to educate and warn riders to (as one of the posters commented) ride like everybody's out to kill you.

G Force
by: Anonymous

FYI
G force is speed squared over distance to stop(x30).

That said, a 500lb bike traveling at 55mph coming to an instant stop (into the side of a vehicle running a red light) will experience approximately 50,000 lbs of force.

Booyah!

Unless you've ridden a bike, you can't say a thing. A motorcycle rider has to be twice as alert as the idiot in the car, they don't see us. An old dude told me when i got my first street bike: ride like everyone is trying to kill you! it works. And if you can get by the first 6 months on the street you'll be OK,. evrything happens that can possibly happen in this time period. Wear your helmet fools!

How is the car "at fault" all by their lonesome? The driver of the motorcycle was OBVIOUSLY going WAY over the speed limit. Speed limits BY INTERSECTIONS are designed to prepare you to stop at a moment's notice to prevent instances like this. This should be posted on bike pages and say SLOW DOWN. Or STOP WEAVING IN AND OUT OF TRAFFIC. I'm sorry for sounding heartless cause noone deserves this. But don't make the biker a martyr. What the hell was the bike doing? Attempting to time when the red light was going to change to green so they wouldn't T-BONE THE CAR. Hello - lets all think about this. EVEN if the person driving was texting and driving WHICH IS WRONG the bike should have had WELL enough time to even SEE the asshole car continuing past the red light. A responsible rider would have seen it. This is in no way defending the driver for "texting and driving" they were wrong for that as well.

ALL drivers and riders need to be more cautious.
by: slclogston

I was just tooling around always looking for things to scare myself so that I stay riding smart.
I ride everyday and I see both sides of this argument. (As far as this wrecks goes however, I'd say the driver of the VW was at fault.)

There are careless riders. There are riders that treat a freeway like a racetrack and a street like a stunt arena; however when they screw up, they pay for it themselves (with a rare exception here and there).

HOWEVER, more common is the driver who treats their car like an office, a movie theater, diner, or a chat room. And they'll take other drivers and riders with them.

Its sad that things like this happen and yet we still can't get people's attention back on the road. Personally, I think driving ages should go up and the standard set higher. Driving a vehicle isn't a right.
I'm all for having license yanked out of people's hands instead of writing ticket after ticket. The roads would be alot safer.

Teen drivers and immortality!

Closure Rates

The closure rate is the amount of time it takes a car to reach a certain point (usually your location). Teens are notoriously bad judges of closure rates. Part of this is due to inexperience with judging closure rates. Teens also have a tendency to glance too quickly at approaching cars. Unless you watch a car for a few seconds, it’s impossible to gauge how fast it’s traveling.

I motorcycle traveling 55mph collides with an oncoming car traveling 45mph and you have a closing speed of 100mph.

Youth and exuberance will always fall to age and experience.

Who,s the idiot?
by: Charliehorse

i can tell by your comment that you don,t ride a bike. try to avoid a teenager who makes a hard right turn across your lane doing 55mph with no warning.Did i mention i was doing 45mph and it was night. The lane she turned onto was on an angle so she didn,t need to slow down to make the turn, unless someone like a motorcycle is coming in the other direction. i missed her by inches and was able to regain control without crashing.Your the idiot for puting a ststement like that on the web.

For that to happen ; the idiot on the bike had to be going WAYYYYYY too fast.A 55 mile per hour collision would not do that.Anyone that drives their bike in excess of the speed limit is INVITING death.Just because your bike goes 160mph is not a license to do so.An alert bike rider, doing the speed limit , and paying attention should be able to stop.
