SUV? Looks more like a 5-er to me.

 

Yeah, you're right. Fixed.

 

Well done! It's about time people get involved instead of watching from the sidelines.

 

How much you want to bet that the guy in the suit watching is the BMW driver?

 

Was the motorcyclist not wearing a helmet?

 

No, he wasn't wearing a helmet.

While it's easy to blame the BMW driver--and it may very well be his fault--I've seen too many people fly around corners on bikes (without helmets) not to consider that the guy may have been speeding...

 

That section of Hwy 89 is completely straight for a couple miles in each direction. It is also the main street in the city, and since there is a lot of traffic, you can rarely get going over 40mph. Traffic usually travels 30-35 mph through that area.

There could have been a car turning into the driveway/parking lot, with the motorcycle on the other side, which would mostly have blocked the motorcycle from view of the bimmer driver...

 

Ding, ding, ding! You're right... And when the EMTs showed up, instead of letting them all focus on Brandon (the motorcycle driver), he was complaining about having high blood pressure. I guess you gotta give him credit though... If I hit a motorcycle and the guy was laying there lifeless I would be freaking out quite a bit as well... especially if I was the one that caused the wreck.

 

As a motorctyclist myself, I'm aware of the dangers of being on two wheels.

The simple fact is, your easily obscured. There was a fatality this weekend past, where a motorcyclist was collected by a car, leaving their curbside carpark.

This kids pretty fkn lucky.
