max power Posted May 21, 2012 Report Share Posted May 21, 2012 Saw this on the news last night. They sent homicide to the scene as he had a hole in the back of his head and witnesses heard a loud pop before he left the road.Weird. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pokey Posted May 21, 2012 Report Share Posted May 21, 2012 No helmet equals......stupid. So sad when "choice" can make the difference between living or dying in some situations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
max power Posted May 21, 2012 Report Share Posted May 21, 2012 A helmet is no guarantee of living, it just helps your chances. The higher you rate of speed, the less it increases your chances Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't get me wrong, I won't ride without a helmet, but I don't have a false sense of invincibility with one. You go off into trees at a high rate of speed, helmet or not, it won't end well.

05candygrand Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 why all the bullet comments? am i missing something? says he hit a median and flippedBecause the news indicated that he had a puncture wound in the back of his head. It was unclear whether or not this was from the accident or from possibly being shot thus causing the accident.You know OR, just like the IP Demo crash thread, people take a speculation and run with it until it becomes a perceived fact.
