On the evening of Wednesday 10th September, there was a traffic collision involving a car and a motorcycle which resulted in the death of the 13 year old motorcyclist who died at the scene.

According to the boy's mother the boy had owned the motorcycle for a year and was heading home after going to the city to upgrade the bike from a friend.

Upon his return, he collided with a car and sadly died.

I wouldn't think 13 is old enough to have a licence in any country ?

I remember on holidays in Egypt I saw young lads on motorbikes.

In this part of the world, read the minimum age to own an instruction license is 15 but being on the roads seems to be 18. Think underdeveloped countries seem to just allow it whenever they feel the driver is capable.

already owned the bike for a year. what mom would allow her 12 yo son to own and ride a bike anyway.
dumbasses all around there. no wonder they die like flies.

As a mother of 2 young beautiful daughters this breaks my heart; esp as one is 18 yrs old and has been licensed for two yrs but just moved to a big city. The poor young boy may have been a pretty experienced driver---age doesn't mean he wasn't. RIP.

Well, his mother knew about it and still let him drive it, that's just unscrupulous...

It might not have been his fault.

No matter the fault, a child died and that is sad.
