Police have issued warnings to Adelaide motorists, who are reaching 180kph in order to see the ghost of a motorcyclist.

Allegedly, a ghostly bright light appears in the rear windscreen. This is purported to be the spirit of a 20 year old motorcyclist killed in a crash with a speeding driver three years ago.

"It's alleged that if you drive at speed in a dangerous manner, a bright white light comes in behind you and that's what they are calling the Lemon Tree Passage ghost,'' a police spokeswoman said, adding “There have been several phone calls that people are going out there and while attempting to get footage for YouTube these cars are travelling at excessive speed.''

In my case it's usually red and blue lights that appear...

Love the comments on the YouTube clip they are stating they are intelligent etc people. Sounded like a pack of whiny idiots on the video if you ask me.

Hit 111 m.p.h. and the ghost of a dead motorcyclist will appear in your rear-view mirror. At least that's what young people in a small Australian town believe, and are increasingly endangering their lives to prove.

Would it work for me? My motorcycle doesn't have a rear windscreen.

It is not often that there is no doubt as to whether something is Bollox or not.

The doubters just need to up their doseage slightly :no:
