OK, so maybe being a bitch isn't working.

It's sad, but simply staying on your their side of the road would probably have saved most of these people.

I usually don't ride in the weekends. Too many people in too much of a hurry just not paying any attention to what's going on around them.

Re the Jury accident - stock agent's Commodore was t-boned in the driver's side B pillar - fairly hard to avoid that when some fuckwit in a cage either u-turns or pulls outa an intersection without seeing the bike........why oh why is it never a bloody truck they 'don't see', instead of a bike!!!!

This accident makes me seriously consider chucking my bike on trade-me, especially given that my other half is also on the back of my bike 80% of my riding time. Some of these shit for brains pillocks that we share the roads with are beyond belief sometimes........

RIP Tony - if ever there was an award for just being 'a good bastard', you'd have a shed full of them. Family, friends & clients will definitely miss you.

Trucks are a bit bigger than bikes, hey...

And yes, I've recently observed that this really can and does happen to the best of us. Eternal vigilance is the price of freedom, etc, I suppose.

Sorry mate, I wasn't commenting about this particular incident. Just an observation about the number of head on accidents that seem to be occuring at the moment.

[HEADACHE]

Blame the government for not requiring better driving standards. An idiot should never pass a driving test but plenty do and then innocent people die.


Use the road at your own peril.

[4Ducati]

Ahhh yes, but current breeding program being used would ensure we just get a 'better' idiot.........

[Swoop]

I shall continue to smack mirrors of dickheads that STOP in the middle lane of the motorway when they can't get into the left hand one. I don't fancy seeing someone get squashed when someone behind can't stop in time.

I shall also continue to kick the shit out of vehicles that try and squash me.

i will also berate those cunts that block the right hand lane on the Terrace offramp because they want to get into the left hand one. I will also block said cunts from ever getting in the left hand lane and make them drive up the terrace instead of Boulcott st.

I will also try and stay alive by treating everyone on the road as if they are blind, stupid, and/or suicidal.

Good stuff mate!

Just been chatting to the Print Manager at work. His beloved Ducati was totalled that same weekend. He was lucky to walk away with very bad bruising. He was coming into Whangamata and some bitch in a volvo did a right hand turn across the road in front of him and he had nowhere to go. Dunno if he was one of the cases mentioned in that link cos it won't open for me at the mo... (cos its old news?)

He is gutted but got some satisfaction from the fact that her car was munted enough that it had to be towed from the scene.

The police have charged her on 2 counts.

And yet again... speed not a factor in the crash.... RIP Tony.

Motorcyclist tried to miss car

By JONATHON HOWE - Manawatu Standard Last updated 12:00 27/11/2009

Pahiatua businessman and motorcyclist Anthony Jury died while attempting to avoid a car that was doing a U-turn in front of him, a coroner has found.Mr Jury, 47, the owner of Tony Jury Motorcycles, was killed when his Suzuki Bandit motorcycle and a Holden Commodore collided on Makomako Rd, near Mangahao, on November 30 last year.

Mr Jury's wife, who was riding pillion, was injured in the crash. The driver of the Holden, Richard Fraser, was not hurt.

Hastings coroner Chris Devonport said Mr Jury was travelling south when he rounded the left-bend where Mr Fraser was pulling a U-turn, using a farm accessway.

"Mr Jury applied the motorcycle's brakes, with the rear wheel of the motorcycle locking and the motorcycle impacting with the Holden motor vehicle in the south-bound lane," Mr Devonport said.

Mr Jury died at the scene from multiple injuries to his aorta, chest, pelvis and left leg.

Crash investigator Senior Constable Les Maddaford said the road was dry but long grass and trees may have restricted Mr Jury's view.

No faults were found in either vehicle and speed was unlikely to have been a factor, Mr Maddaford said.
