Moonlover Posted October 14, 2019 Share Posted October 14, 2019 The real cause of this sad accident is the fact that a funeral is taking place along side a fast highway with no traffic control at all and it is inevitable that there will be slow moving traffic arriving or departing. And appears to be the case. There was a very slow moving vehicle at 8 secs into the video which appeared to be searching for a parking space. The impatient pick up driver (aren't they all?) tried to pass on the left and struck that vehicle from behind. I think this talk about 'racing a big bike' is just witness's fantasizing. A very sad incident on an already sad occasion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I attended the start of my father-in-laws funeral rites at the family home on Saturday... after closing the coffin the obligatory meal was provided along with alcohol.. by the end of the evening most were inebriated, jumped into their respective vehicles & drove home.

JulesMad Posted October 14, 2019 Share Posted October 14, 2019 Even a slow 'big bike' is faster than the average sportscar... Pick-ups are slow by definition, most Honda Waves have faster acceleration up to 40-50 km/h When coming across would-be racers (normally equipped with small dicks!), just let them 'win'... It is just not worth the trouble Real problems start when 2 small dicks want to race ???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strange that the only Mbike in the video at the time was a little Plastic rangadangaling along. He'd certainly get an ego boost, to be blamed for the racing...

Stargeezr Posted October 15, 2019 Share Posted October 15, 2019 The video of this accident show lots of vehicles along the road and some going by at a fast speed. Looks like a place waiting for an accident to happen, then it did. Third world country with a third world accident and result. I do hope the pickup driver gets a long time in a jail cell to think about his actions. Geezer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
