this guy hit the VW at about 155 mph, now on this particular wreck the VW pulled out in front of the bike, but before we blame the car think about it. you come to an intersection and look both ways and you see a headlight in the distance and it should arrive to you in say 30 seconds, well OK plenty of time to go across.....wrong the rider only had 2 seconds in order to react at that speed.
A similar accident happened here locally and at first the car was at fault until it was determined that the biker was doing 4 times the legal speed limit....
I am a biker the worst incident I ever had was when a car ran into me at a stoplight and totaled my bike and almost me too. the point is bikers need to be very very careful but also have common sense.

all 3 people inside the car died, one of them was the biker...
