what happens when an R1 and a 4WD collide?

this:







"...a female riding a friends R1 had the rear step out on her due gravel and then highsided into the path of an oncoming 4WD. The 4WD managed to avoid her but had the bike go underneath and then explode. She went off the edge of the hill and rolled down the gully. Speaking with the rider last night she's gotten off really well with just a broken collarbone. Here are a few pics of the aftermath (taken by the people in the 4WD)..."

...

...

these people think they can ride bikes but end up nearly killing themselves. When will they learn, the Government takes speeding points off car driver's licences when we knock over a bike rider

...

an R1 for those that might not know:

damn

jezus

easy there, tiger

speed may or may not have been a contributing factor! she lost it cus of gravel being on the road! one doesn't have to be going fast to lose it. slight inclination on a bike and you can go head over arse.

I didn't say she was speeding. I said the government removes points given for speeding when car drivers knock over a bike driver

Gravel my arse anyway, she lost it because she wasn't experienced to ride it

Ahh man thats gotta be horrible to watch

woah.

stupid thing to say. i've lost count of the number of idiot car drivers i've passed who were talking on the phone, who have cut me up cos they didnt see me, who have forced me to stop quickly as they were too stupid to realise i had the right of way at a roundabout and just pulled out. the average bike rider is a lot more intelligent than any car driver, cos if they arent, they'll end up seriously injured.

feel sorry for the guy who's R1 was returned to him in an ashtray
