Yes, apparently there's a motorcycle in that van......   

"A Suzuki motorcyclist was riding so fast that he rammed into the back of a moving minivan.
He hit the van with such force that his body propelled into the vehicle like a missile.
And his body positioning was so fortunately precise that he shot straight between a husband and wife seated in the back in bucket seats.
"We were just cruising in the center lane when we heard a big ol' bang — and he's lying between us," Sammy Cannon said."

The motorcyclist was critically injured.

Jeez!!

Somehow I found their last name, "Cannon" a bit ironic.

Germany or Florida?

 Obiviously .22 year olds should not be allowed to ride without some kind of speed restrictor on their bikes, seem like a lot of the crashes we're hearing about are young, stupid "wannabee" hotshots riding like total buttheads. I guess that's one way of thinning the herd of the bad riders out there that make all of us look bad.

There are plenty of idiotic 51 year olds out there, too.  Should we make new laws restricting what you can and can't do simply because you happen to be the same age as they are?

[tramp]

if you play the age game you have to play it all the way through

[bluezboy]

 okay Gordon you got me there, you are so right!

I have to agree with bluezboy to a degree, the statistics for 17-25 year olds here in Oz are terrible, they are in a hurry to kill themselves.
I rode fast where appropriate when i was young but these days all common sense seems to go out the window with the majority of young riders.
