SWing'R Posted July 14, 2012 Report Share Posted July 14, 2012 RIP.Curious. The story says he tried to pass a car that ended up turningand he hit the side of the car. Guessing either it didn't signal or he justdidn't see the signal. But looking at this pic, how did the windshield geta head shot if he hit the side, you can clearly see the side impact spot.Unless that's not a head impact on the windshield and just how the windowshattered from the side impact??

Had a deer hit mine once and it shattered the window similar to that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scruit Posted July 14, 2012 Report Share Posted July 14, 2012 Look at the handlebars in the original story; they are bent forward. The front wheel is kicked left and flattened. Looks like the wheel/forks hit the side of the CRV at the leading edge of the driver's door and his upper body continued forward - hips hitting/bending the bars and shoulders/head folding down and hitting the windshield.

hue jass Posted July 14, 2012 Report Share Posted July 14, 2012 RIPValuable lesson - if you encounter a vehicle going impossibly slow, you better make sure there are no turn possibilities before you pass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
