    That is the only thing that scares me on a bike. I have somewhat control of people pulling out in front and doing my best to avoid. But when you do not see what is coming from the rear and you become a hood ornament is scary

    It appeared to me that the bike wasn't moving and had no lights.

    After a couple more looks, he was moving slowly. There was lights, but they were dim.

    I think this is the news report of the accident

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dprfundpn4k

    Not sure why they want to thank the trooper.

    Side note the trooper was named Trooper of the year not long before the accident.

    I doubt the trooper is going to be hurting over this. Probably knocking back a few pints after a days hard work. Trooper of the year, no doubt!

    i think she's going to get a full face helmet and he's getting some gloves
    in the second post the guy that found him said he looked ok, that makes it pretty funny. what hurt worse, the sting, smacking it or going off the bridge?

    Just goes to show that even a momentary lapse of concentration while on the road can seriously ruin everyone's day. That's also why I'm ATGATT, even when just going out to grab a coffee.

    Be the bunny.
