Shoveling a Dead Mangled Biker into His White Coffin

[kellyhound]

He was going 143 m/ph. (230 km.ph.)

Boy he sure got it good! Looks like a sunny side up egg. Way too stupid to realize that speed would kill him I guess. Idiots on the road.

I ride my Harley everyday and I always fear getting whacked by some dumbfuck that is not paying attention.. In this case, blatant stupidity on the part of the driver (operator of the motorcycle) was the reason why this guy is being scooped up in a box..

I totally get the ideology of riding fast, but you need to know your limitations and always account for Murphy's law...

im curious as to why you say its the "drivers" fault?..unless you mean the bike rider,then yes i agree.ive seen the helmet cam view several times on other sites.i dont know what the speed really was,but i was very very fast,i tend to believe the 143mph thing,but the car was traveling the speed limit it seemed to me,and the biker drifted slightly to the right...and POW!! he ran into the car.

I'm thinking he "drifted right" because there was another car in his lane, directly in front of him, that we cannott see. And given the exessive speed, he knew he would not be able to slow down in time. Instinctively, or out of vain hope, he tried to change lanes. But his luck ran out when there was another car occupying the other lane.

It's just a guess. But something made him attempt a lane change. What I'm trying to figure out is, what exactly did he hit? That car we see in the video? If so, I would have expected that car to have major damage as well. But it looks intact to me. It's hard to tell due to the limited resolution.

High rate of speed = zero movement for error
I'm sure he died doing what made him happy .

He died doing what he loved and I doubt he felt a thing; a successful death in my book.
