5 Motorcyclists killed

[Homeslice]

Doesn't matter what the front of the pack was doing. There is no way in hell for an oncoming car to go off the shoulder and then swerve back onto the road fast enough to still hit the front of the pack. In that amount of time, the front of the pack would have already passed him. It's the riders in the back or middle who are at risk of getting hit.

You never know what poor drivers are capable of, I pass a lot on a two lane road going back and forth to work(not talking about the gap either.) Legal passes with a dotted yellow where I have clear room to pass. I am always surprised what some people will do when they are coming at me as I am passing. I have had people swerve all over the place when I had plenty of time to get back over into my lane without effecting them. A lot of drivers are complete tards.

We will never know the circumstances of the story that caused this crash because every person will spin their own version.

3. cars w/shitty suspension

What trip was trying to say is that the bikers were jews, and the guy driving the avenger didnt have an oven and decided that his car was the next best thing. The guy in the accord was just an innocent bystander

eastbound gold Honda Accord

Is that a new color or something?

Don't block traffic and piss off the cagers = no road rage, no stupid cagers pass.

Ride properly and the chances of things like this happen are pretty low.

No offense meant Gas. Cage drivers kill without regard to who is riding what. My comments were not meant to say they had done anything to deserve it. I only wanted everyone to think about spacing and how to avoid being in the accident.
My 2nd post about tassles was in poor taste due to the tragic nature...

3. Shitty suspension/tires/tire pressure/driving "skills" for the motherfucking FAIL

Agreed, I have had that happen several times as well.

I will answer you with you.

You, I, nor anybody else here knows exactly what happen beyond 5 people died. Respect that and their families they leave behind. This is completely tragic, regardless of the circumstances.

1. The Dodge Avenger is a crappy car
2. It's platform is shared with the Mitsubishi Eclipse


You can call people assholes and I may get flamed for this but the facts are clear.

Thats all I have to say about that....

This is true... on both counts and not what I was referring to. But those facts and the 5 dead are the only facts thru this thread.

This is not a news article. This is not the every rider who dies memorial section. These people and their families aren't members of this forum. This is TWFix. This is a discussion forum. If I die while this board is around, I fully expect all you bastards to nitpick what I did wrong. I don't give a shit, I'm dead. Andrea and my family don't come here, so they won't care either.

THIS BOARD WILL NOT BE LIKE OTHER BOARDS WHERE WE CAN'T CRITIQUE THE CIRCUMSTANCES OF AN ACCIDENT. Creating threads to just say rip is dumb. There are plenty of other boards for that if you want to go that route. Here we disect and talk about things and learn.
