Motorcycle & Car Collision Used As Road Safety Display
Apparently they are touring this car and bike (cleaned up) around all the big car and bike shows in Europe to promote road safety....A picture is worth a thousand words. The Honda rider was travelling at such a "very high speed", his reaction time was not sufficient enough to avoid this accident. Swedish Police estimate a speed of ~250 KM/h (155mph) before the bike hit the slow moving car side-on at an intersection. At that speed, they predicted that the rider's reaction time (once the vehicle came into view) wasn't sufficient enough for him to even apply the brakes. The car had two passengers and the bike rider was found INSIDE the car with them. The Volkswagen actually flipped over from the force of impact and landed 10 feet from where the collision took place. All three involved (two in car and rider) were killed instantly. This graphic demonstration was placed at the Stockholm Motorcycle Fair by the Swedish Police and Road Safety Department. The sign above the display also noted that the rider had only recently obtained his license. At 250 KM (155 mph) the operator is travelling at 227 feet per second. With normal reaction time to SEE-DECIDE-REACT of 1.6 seconds the above operator would have traveled over 363 feet while making a decision on what actions to take. In this incident the Swedish police indicate that no actions were taken.  ·  ·  ·  · |

Re: Motorcycle & Car Collision Used As Road Safety Display
What bike is that?, this is just gonna bug me now. Honda RC30 maybe?. Police at it again, "speed kills", this is how they justify all the fucking speed camera's, the main cause of death on the road, is not paying attention, not speed, speed camera's are for revenue not for are safety, lying cunt's. Nice post. Or is it an old Fireblade? |
