Bike Accident on 25th

So what your basically saying is that she was an offensive driver. Don't they teach you to be a DEFENSIVE driver so stuff like this doesnt happen? Any driver with 1/2 a brain will know what 30mph looks like. Now I see someone going far beyond what looks to be 30mph. Pretty sure the first thing a normal driver would think of is to just sit there and wait instead of risking an accident. Obviously she failed at that.

so... if you were trying to get out into traffic.... you can always judge how fast a small object is moving?

You don't know what happened. You are basing your assumptions on heresay.

Exactly. So why are you basing your arguments/statements on information that is hearsay or assumed?Again, is that not what the rest of these people are doing?
All of you want to put blame on the biker. I'm pointing out the other side for those of you that have a massive case of tunnel vision.

So seriously now.... did the 15 year old break up with you or are you mourning the thought of not having the dead kids dick in your ass ever again??
(not ripping on dead kid)

80mph looks a hell of a lot different than 30 mph.Just because it's small doesn't mean it's not blatantly obvious that this 'small object' is flying down the road.
Defensive Driving > Offensive Driving
you should work for nasa.....so you are telling me if you are in a hurry to get out into traffic and you glance over to se if someone is comming, you would clearly be able to see that an object is moving in excess of the speed limit?

she started pulling out a few seconds after the light had turned green (based on traffic flow...didn't see the light)...I witnessed that because that is the road I take home and I always check to see if it is quicker to go to the light or just wait out traffic....anyway...he canned it around Gate City (maybe a hair before) I know I'm going to use the wrong term here, but he basically pulled the wheel up while accelerating hard (if you've ever seen a bike launch at the track, that was what his bike looked like upon acceleration). Up until then, he was going about 35 mph...I feel he more than doubled that speed in the distance between gate city and holiday...then he found out just how fast he can go from 70 to zero. I'll go on record saying if that were 10 minutes earlier, he may have crashed into me, because she was doing the EXACT same thing I do every time I cross that street... Look left for distance of traffic...then look right to make sure you can fit into spacing in vehicles to merge. I'm assuming she figured that anyone who driving in rush hour isn't going to be going APPROXIMATELY 70 to 80 mph....40 to 45, maybe, but she would have EASILY made it through if that were the case.

Yes. If you can't, get the fuck off the road. Plain and simple.
zbrown - Considering I have not a clue who this girl is, I would assume that answer is a no. And considering I have no idea who the guy is (as in I've never heard of him before), I would assume the answer to that is a no.
If your going to go that route, i will too:
Zbrown, did that 15 yr old spread her legs for you last night so you could get some pussy for once. Is that why your defending her? Cmon man, I'm sure you can do better than that....

But at the same point, they teach defensive driving for this very reason. You can still see somebody going "APPROXIMATELY 70 to 80 mph" pretty clearly. If you can't should I fear driving anywhere in the area of you on the interstate? That is 75 after all. Are you going to not see me because of my rate of speed? Shit, I could be doing 90 and I hope to god you can see me.
Better yet, Can you see Dave going down the track at 8.6 @ 159 mph or w/e he ran it at? Pretty sure you can.
Thats DOUBLE what this biker was doing and yet you can still see daves car? How come you can't see this biker?
Ok ok.. your going to use the "it was a small object" card on me.
So be it.
My answer to that is:
Can you see the rockets at the track going down the track at 130-150 mph? Pretty sure you can.
Now my question to you all is (before I get whored some more):
Why would you pull out in front of someone that you can see is going at an excessive rate of speed for the fear of your life or someone else's? -

Parker, you still have yet to provide me with a decent explanation on why seeing a 'small object' moving at 80mph is so hard to see.
