Cheers for the reminder. The road is the road that is used by everybody else as well, afterall. This was posted before with out any explanation, so people thought it was hoax.

i already posted this one.. but I only had the pics emailed to me, didn't have any story. I think we came to the conclusion it was possibley a setup
Incredible. I pity the people that had to clean that one up, (or any accident for that matter) that would have been a nightmarish scene.
250 kmh = 69.44 metres per second. Not much time to react...
My daughter telling me like it is:"There is an old man in your face daddy!"
250 or 150 or 100. you're still dead.
Speed doesn't kill people.
Stupidity kills people.
Interesting. So, if the bike had been doing 100, you think that both folk in the car would have died as well, Lou?
The world is my oxter
Yeah, there was a bike v car just like that in Three Kings back in the '80s. The bike was doing around 100 - 110 k's. Killed both people in the car. Rider survived, somersaulted over the car.Originally Posted by jazbug5

In agreement with you. But it all depends on a number of factors, angle of impact, type of car, point of impact, etc etc.Originally Posted by jazbug5
Hmmm - as a person with a constantly semi-cynical mind-set, I wonder if they "tweaked" the position of the bike at all (as in pushed it further in) after the crash, because surely they had to get it out to get the remains of the car driver out?!
Still - that's pretty full-on! Not nice.
i feel sorry for the people in the car, the guy on the bike should not have been going anywhere near that speed if there was even a remote chance of something pulling out in front, or an intersection etc
waste of 3 lives and a chunk taken out of many more.
Shit, thats not good, hopefully some of us can learn from it
To every man upon this earth
Death cometh sooner or late
And how can a man die better
Than facing fearful odds
For the ashes of his fathers
And the temples of his Gods
100km/hr on an object weighing 300kg (rider and bike combined) carries a lot more kinetic energy that you you would imagine.Originally Posted by jazbug5
If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?
It is not just YOU that counts here. Others are dead as well. Sorry to close to the heart to not remind people of this fact.Originally Posted by Lou Girardin
Sadly that instance was not unique...
I know my bike wouldn't fit in the falcon.... Not gonna do 250 just to find out though.
thanks Pritch, I was thinking of posting that photo too.
I'm a little surprised at some of the 'its a setup' doubting Thomas' here. What do you guys think it would look like for real if thats a set up??
Its not like it could never happen when all you need is an open road, an overzealous biker trying to catch up to his mate and a sleepy driver pulling out of driveway lined with trees...
Didn't know if had been posted before Bugjuice, but glad I've added something to the discussion.
