It's a significant problem in the Cambridgeshire fens - if you fall off one of the back roads there are very deep ditches with many feet of
water at the bottom. Many car drivers and bike riders have died in them... 
It's not until you drive along one of those back roads that you realise just how scary those ditches are...
Anyway - I'm glad he was found, but it doesn't sound like he's in good shape at the moment - hope he recovers OK.

Mate of mine went through a hedge on his bike (still doesn't remember what happened) one afternoon. He was lying trapped under his bike
unconcious. He was found when a passing motorist noticed his tail light in the field that night. The exhaust had burned through his boot and down to
the bone of his leg.
Tell them about the bent treacle edges!

If I'm going out cycling (mtb, so could be way off beaten track) I use Sportstrack Pro (other similar things available) which can upload a
realtime live feed straight onto internet (overlays google maps to within a few feet) which wife can see at all times.
Hope motorcyclist makes full and speedy recovery.

A few years ago a nurse from Adenbrookes hospital went missing, about a week later she was found in her car having gone off the A10 at Waterbeach ,
through a hedge and into a lake . Only a few feet from a very busy road
