Quoted: I only care about the people in the car. Hope they're okay. Fuck the squid. Good somersault. View Quote Seriously. That squid was an accident waiting to happen. It was just a matter of time. Driving that fast on any road endangers innocent people, but through an intersection in a congested area during the morning commute? What an asshole. The world is a safer place today. |

Quoted: What is it dude in the white truck hiding? He did U-turn right up over that sidewalk and out of there. View Quote was white truck being there going to HELP the situation in anyway? No, so why stick around for what is likely HOURS of "well I was in lane 3 on your diagram going to turn left and the blue Toyota was in front of me... this is the 19th time ive said this..." fatal accident due to moron on bike, Is it really worth 10 minutes of your time? id leave too. |

Quoted: Because big bad ass Harley's don't have that much power. I had a 2007 600cc sport-bike that had 118hp. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted: Quoted: Why is it that 99% of videos I see like this, the rider is always on a crotch-rocket? Because big bad ass Harley's don't have that much power. I had a 2007 600cc sport-bike that had 118hp. My youngest brother just bought a Honda CBR1000. Middle brother had one of those, a Yamaha of some fast model, an Aprilia and now has a Ducati. Goes to track days to see what the bikes can do. Based on the youngest brother's riding habits, Middle has said he sees something like this in the near future. |

Quoted: Because the driver of the car was injured. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted: Quoted: I don't understand why the video had "tragic" in the title. Squidly died by by his own stupid, uncaring for others, irresponsible hand. Because the driver of the car was injured. And it looks like a late model car that was totalled. Late model cars are expensive. |

I see crotch rocket riders doing crazy shit every time I'm in Florida. The craziest thing I've seen though was a cycle rider pass between a SUV and transfer truck on 10 late at night. He had to have been going well over 100 mph. We were going 75-78 and he passed us in blur. Right after passing us, I seen him disappear between the truck and SUV in my headlights. I thought for sure the guy was going to kill himself.

Quoted: Red lights are increasingly optional nowadays. View Quote Had a car do one of those run up on the stop sign and stop really fast things to me one time. I was all over the brakes on my bike, I just knew he was going to blow that sign. If he had I would have been pasted. Scared the F--- out of me and pissed me off! |

Hard for a driver to look twice to save a motorcycle rider’s life when the MC is a 120mph blur.
That said, I used to ride. Getting too dangerous on the roads for me, all around. |

If he had I would have been pasted. Scared the F--- out of me and pissed me off! View Quote Full pucker moment when that happens. I had a guy make a sudden turn into my lane from the right turn lane that was stopped. I was only going about 30 but it went from clear road ahead to a barely moving car right in front of me in about half a second. I barely avoided a collision but had to stop a little ways up the road to calm myself down. |

View Quote "Holy fuck that dude is dead, Im getting the fuck out of here while I still can". View Quote Quoted: I was at ground zero for one of those about 15 years ago. Motorcycle hit the car 1-2 cars ahead of me. I had to sit there for a couple of hours while they cleaned up the mess. View Quote |

What's that old saying.......?
I'll probably mess it up, but here goes: There are bold riders, and there are old riders....... but, there are no old, bold riders...... |

He watched too many motorcycle movies and thought he was special too.

Quoted: I don't think he intentionally t-boned the car, therefore classified as an accident. Accident due to stupidity, not paying attention etc. View Quote lol.. When you intentionally play chicken with traffic.. its not an accident when you hit something. It's a highly probably outcome that took effort. It takes a lot of attention to do what he did without paying attention. Accidents occur when the driver has no control in the outcome. For the driver of the car it was an accident. For the motorcycle rider, it was not. Our continued use and blanket description of traffic collisions as accidents further enables people. |

Whatever, Please watch out for those on one and two wheels and whatever you do; be-careful about blowing your grass on Streets.
Seriously, though I do have a few good friends that ride. I think and hope they ride responsibly. I hope none of them are ever involved in any life threatening or life altering accidents. |

Get it out of there Pee Wee!
Oh, slow down Pee Wee! Oh, he dead. Hey, somebody call nine-one! |

I'm am 100% in favor of motor cycles. It's Darwinism in action. Just like I'm 100% in favor of wing suiting, BASE jumping, free climbing, and whatever other dumb, high risk activity people can come up with. Eliminating yourself from the gene pool saves the rest of us the trouble.

I think "tragic" was the wrong choice of words. "Stupid" would have been my choice.

fuel injected suicide machine he was.
too bad he had to involve others in his exit. |
|
That was probably not his first time blowing through an intersection. The odds caught up to him.

Quoted: The shoes ALWAYS come off ![]() View Quote Yeah, but this guy was the master. Notice how his sneaker goes straight up and then, based on the end footage, seemingly lands right next to the bike. That's like a 3.9 degree of difficulty. I think even the East German judge is going to give him a decent score for that one. |

It was like watching someone get punched in a stupidhero movie.

Quoted: Novice riders don't appreciate how sport bikes alter the time/space continuum. Nobody wants to learn on small bikes any more. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted: Quoted: Why is it that 99% of videos I see like this, the rider is always on a crotch-rocket? Novice riders don't appreciate how sport bikes alter the time/space continuum. Nobody wants to learn on small bikes any more. Their performance characteristics are also pretty insane. It's like having your own personal F-15. I had an R6 and it is hard to describe the acceleration that is available to you, especially if you keep it in the power band. And that was just a 600cc race bike, not a liter bike. It's like a drug...and takes a strong will to control. And if you can't, either get on a track or get rid of the bike. |

Triple gainer. Did not stick the landing, but good hang time.

That poor car, and is there any word on the condition of the missing shoe?

I think I found the problem. There was no Road Captain to clear the intersection for him.

Get some unpaid time off work, pay for parking and lunches, good times. I wonder if they cleaned that guy off with an inch and a half or a blitz line? |

Anyone else notice that truck nope out really quick.
Bet they had warrants. |
