Damn truck drivers...

Losing a riding buddy thru his own stupidity sucks. Been there, too many times. Doesn't matter what you hit....

Good message in the sarcasm.

Actually, fuck that, Truckies are generally awesome, Best cunts on the road.

Not like those pigs and their u-turns.

Eloquently put, Sir.

You're ok though, you're a cat.

Pity you had to explain it, Those that don't get it probably should have thought about it some more.

Those who don't get it, are generally incapable of the required thought...

React first, think later... The KB way!

Yeah it was sarcasm, anyone who actually watched the video should have realised that. I posted it up as a reminder of how vulnerable we are against large objects, and why we need to be pro-active about how we ride. I just lost a mate the other day in a collision with a van. People spoke ill of the van driver, asking whether he'll be charged etc. Well my mate did something (from what I've been told, from what I saw of his injuries, from what I saw of the crash scene) very very stupid that day, something that like the rider in the above video cost him his life. Nothing to do with the van driver ultimately. But he/she will have to live with it for the rest of their lives, as will the driver of the truck in the vid.

Wise up people.

Yes, well my apologies - at a bleary eyed 6am on a Saturday the sarcasm was somewhat lost on me
The rest of you can get fucked!

At the end of the day, regardless - still a timely reminder for everyone to ride safe. At least I was wide awake when I hit the road later that morning, more than I can say for some I witnessed...

Featured here on kb many a time. Much to everyone's disgust and indignation when the "s" word is used in relation to it.

I smell a conspiracy.
Why else would you have your camera rolling on a minor road following a truck that is neither speeding, nor driving dangerously?
Definately a set-up!

Yep, they're professional drivers and I'd rather them than a thousand SUV owners off on holiday
