Re: Van Hits Couple on Motorcycle Head on Killing Them Both

Those cheap ass bikes in Brazil don't have ABS. So when the biker saw the Van at probably 45 mph, he moved to the opposite the lane and pushed the breaks. At that moment, he couldn't change direction anymore. I don't think he had time to make a decision, it was just instinct.

Re: Van Hits Couple on Motorcycle Head on Killing Them Both

But the motorcycle guy was in the wrong lane
I can’t understand what you are saying. The bike was in the proper driving lane. If you look at the debris field, the motorcycle parts are mostly in the left lane. And he probably had zero time to analyze the situation before impact. I’m willing to bet that the van driver saw the bikers before they saw him, and they did try to evade him. If you’re going that fast, 5 seconds is not enough time to react to some idiot charging directly at you, in your lane.

Re: Van Hits Couple on Motorcycle Head on Killing Them Both

Van was passing against the solid yellow line and going up a hill. The van driver should be charged with double murder...
Difficult to prove murder but he certainly deserves two counts of vehicular manslaughter. Who knows what the Brazilian justice system is like but I can't imagine much time is spent on these crimes.

They probably chalk it up as just another road accident.

The van swerved to get out of the way of that maniac speeding biker.

If he would've stayed in his lane it would've been fine.

What are you talking about?
The van was clearly overtaking while crossing the double yellow line. It's the one that causes the accident

Re: Van Hits Couple on Motorcycle Head on Killing Them Both

Bro, there's a whole 6 feet on the right side of the road. Biker was stupid for trying to dodge by going in the oncoming lane.

Your motorcycle profile pic privileges have been revoked. Kill the engine, put down the kickstand, and walk away.
I refuse to believe that you're actually stupid enough to have been serious with that post. I'm going to keep hope (for you mostly) that you're just playing toolbox troll
