we had a case a few weeks ago where a car pulled out in front of a 900 cc triumph, which was stolen and going very fast, it T boned the car and the
passenger died at the scene, the motorcycle rider was seriously injured but lived, although last i heard was going to lose his arm. The car driver had
moderate injuries. Typical, if it was me on my bike i'd have been dead, the sh1tbags always seem to survive........

I once did that but ended up going over the bonnet of the car, how lucky was I, really makes you think.
I spent a lot of money on booze, birds and fast cars. The rest I just squandered.

similar thing happened in town yesterday actually, road was closed from 10.30 - 4.30.
ex-copper (recently retired) was caning it along the main road, round a gentle corner, don't know how fast exactly, but took the car to the
garage which is on the corner, speaking to them in there, reckon about 50-60mph on a 30mph road
meanwhile, other side of the corner, older man in a merc looks, nothing coming so turns across the road into a side street, bike comes out the corner,
can't do anything to stop, whacks the front of the car, comes off, and straight into a skip left at the side of the road...
biker is apparently 'alright' but his legs were mangled, reckons he won't be walking again.
silly boy...

Moral of the story? Don't trust anyone not to jump out in front of you, and don't drive faster than you can stop
