That boy needs to go buy a lottery ticket!

The video doesn't show it, but he probably slid off the seat about 100 yards down the road just because of what was in his undies.

Both the biker and the white car that hit the truck were blowing through a red light; at about 21 seconds, you can see the light turn green, after the accident.
A bike cop died today in the Phoenix area, in a school parking lot. He somehow slammed into a retaining wall after giving students a safety lecture or something. The students had left the area before the crash, so there are no details about what actually happened?

The bike guy used up one of his 'nine lives' (not that he has anymore chances left now..):I hope it scared everyone enough to learn to Slow Down and Enjoy the Ride.

A Higher power was looking out for the person on the bike,imo.

i put stupid big hayabusa /R1 brakes on the vmax to avoid having those arse clenching moments realising you arent going to stop when the lights change
now i can stop in a stupid short distance ( cpmpared to a stock vmax anyway , they do weigh close to 600lbs) i get those arse clenching moments wondering if the car behind me is going to stop aswell.....

Just before the van starts  to turn  into the intersection , a huge dog crosses the road behind the white van.
 Cars whizzing towards dog as he crosses the road.......it's about  2 or 300 feet past the intersection.

they were racing. They could've killed innocent people . If either one of the car occupants or biker would have bought the farm, too bad..
