Guest Tony_K Posted August 25, 2004 Report Share Posted August 25, 2004 Yeah, that does suck. In addition to the stupidity of the motorcyclists, this unfortunate accident also highlights the importance of SEAT BELTS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nitrousbird Posted August 26, 2004 Report Share Posted August 26, 2004 Garbage article. "OMG, they reached speed of 80, 90....maybe even 100 miles per hour." Ohh the horror. I bet I hit 80MPH in my work van at least once a day passing on the freeway. Overdramatic article. Let's not forget that it was the Explorer that put the Suburban in the embankment. For all we know (and there's a good chance this is the case) the soccer mom behind the wheel overreacted to what the motorcyclist was doing, and just swerved without knowing what was next to her. But let's forget all that, the big, bad "stunt boys" will kill us all on the road. Now I'm not supporting what they were doing at all, and doing stuff like that in traffic is dangerous and stupid. I don't mind the quick/dirty message you can get from the article (don't be a retard on a bike) but disgusted by the way it is portrayed. For the record, I've never done any bike "stunts."

How about everyone involved is an idiot. The idiots on the motorcycles, the idiot that swerved without knowing what was around her, and the idiots in the surburban not wearing seatbelts.

SupraGlue Posted August 26, 2004 Report Share Posted August 26, 2004 You have to love how the media considered 80mph to be "fast". Considering that several states have speed limits as high at 75mph, 80 hardly seems like the realm of "daredevils". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave1647545494 Posted August 26, 2004 Report Share Posted August 26, 2004 hell there are places where the speed limit is 80. nothing like gettin passed by an 18 wheeler doin a 100mph its enough to wind to blow a small car clean off the road. most people have no concept of what fast really is. 80 mph is commuting speed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
