Motorcyclist Killed After Colliding With Truck in Manaus

[TheCruxofBag]

In Manaus, Amazonas state, Brazil, 24-year-old motorcyclist Mateus H.B.d.S. was killed when he collided with a truck in the South Zone of the city.

CCTV footage showed that both the truck and the motorcycle were close to the lane divider markings, with the truck moving over the markings to the right-hand lane right before the crash (Brazil vehicles drive on the right), whilst Mateus' motorcycle was virtually on the markings.

Mateus's female passenger was rescued, but he was pronounced dead at the scene. He worked as both a real estate agent, and a ride-hailing motorcyclist.

As a ride hauling motorcyclist he absolutely sucked at it. He had enough street to be able to stay on his side of the fucking road.

It's all the marijuana those kids smoke over there. Getting all high and not paying any attention to what they are doing.

Looked like there was plenty of room for asshole motorcyclist to move to his right to avoid the truck.

Truck was on his side completely when they collided.. Dumbass riding must have seen multiple lines in his mind

I'm wondering if the motorcycle thought the truck was going to cut across in front of them and Park on his side of the road and tried to avoid the anticipated action only to be wrong.

Maybe he had a smear on his helmet faceplate.
