Fatal motorcycle accident

That's horrible, the poor man!

I've only ever seen a motorcycle wreck once right after it happened. My dad pulled over to see if he could help but the guy apparently had been going very fast when he wrecked because his helmet had slid across the pavement and just wore away leaving no protection for his head. I still shiver when I'm around a motorcycle now.

I wasn't there to see it, but when she called here while waiting for the police to take their statements and gave the brief details of the incident, my stomach just turned every time I thought of it. I can't imagine having been there and seeing it. I bet she'll have bad dreams. I might and I only heard about it. I did see her afterwards, but I didn't really get to talk to her about it. I just heard bits and pieces of her firsthand account. She was pretty shaken by the whole thing. I can't imagine having an occupation where that is something you encounter often, like state troopers or EMTs.

Motorcycles scare me. If any of you ride, please, please use protection and caution each and every time you are on one.

That is really sad, RIP to the motorcycyclist. I hope your sister and husband are okay that would be really upsetting.

How sad for your family. I've witnessed a couple of motorcycle accidents commuting. I never had to respond to one but my husband has as a voulunteer fire fighter. He said some of the worst accidents he has seen have involved motorcylces.
