I heard they were filming an ad, the guy in the car got pissed at them hogging the lane or something... disturbing.

Yeah I seen that last week, Big-boys.com pulled the video because apparently the one guy died in that crash and there is a court case open on it. Apparently they didn't have a permit to film the commercial and they were driving in the wrong lanes, Motocycles, courier and trucks are suppose to use the outside lane only.

Good Lord! That's one of the worst and most senseless accidents I've ever seen. It's made even worse if one of the riders did in fact die in the accident.

If they'd been in cars, they probably wouldn't have died or even been seriously injured. Is it really worth risking your life just to ride a motorcycle?!?

From what it looked like to me, the driver of the car intentionally hit those guys. How could you miss all of those tail lights? I dont think it had anything to do with motorcycles as it does with someones complete lack of respect for human life. And if that was in Mexico.. that driver is El screwed.

I will have to make sure my wife does not see that vid, at least until after I get my bike. That was pretty messed up though, it looks like the lead bike almost got it too, but I think the driver lost control before he got to him. I hope they unleashed some street justice before the cops got there.

Part of the responsibilty of owning and riding a motorcyle is the awareness of your surroundings. You have to be prepared for anything anytime anywhere. I enjoy the freedom and sensation of riding a motorcycle. You just have to understand the consequences.

To ask is it worth your life to ride a motorcycle, I ask is it worth your life to drive anything but a semi? Is your life worth even leaving your home? Is it worth taking a bath? Life is full of choices. We still live in a somewhat free country. If you don't want to ride, don't. The rest of us will.

I've had it with the way people drive. Especially women in SUV's and Minivans. Add old people to the list. I only ride in the country.

Those guys didn't have a chance, no matter if they were aware it was coming or not.

You can tell. That driver ment buisness. That's really sad though and I do hope they did beat the piss outta the guy before the cops showed...I woulda.

People driving now is crazy... I do it sometimes, we all do, but a few do it just so bad... I mean, today, getting on the onramp to the highway, this idiot was paying more attention to his cell phone then driving. I honestly wished my car would magically grow a 5-speed just so I could drive right next to him with the muffler going full out so he couldn't hear ****.
