I just was an eye witness of a bike crash!! It was so anexpected and terrifying. A young man drive with his motorcycle with hight speed and sudenly a taxi driver pass the stop whitout even slowing down. The motorcyclist hit the brakes but he just going to fast. He ram into taxi front and fly above the car for around four meters. Thank god he was wear a helmet and some nice bike clothes. He was alive but the taxi and the bike was destroyed. So always wear a helmet and seat bell.!!

Wow I wonder why no body wants me to ride a bike. They tell me they are too dangerous and you have a less chance to survive than if you were in a car. I am happy that the bike man didn't die though. I hate stupid drivers that cant follow the rode code.

I promise myself when I get older I am going to buy myself just one to cruise around with. A big bike but just to cruise around with, no big excitement.

I can't imagine how bad seeing that would be for you. Here in MA there is a helmet law and you will get a ticket if your caught riding without one. I also use seatbelts whenever I'm in someones car.

Here in our country motorcycle accidents are almost happening everyday. It's just sad that despite these occurrences many motorcycle riders particularly younger ones seem to be kings of the road once riding a motorbike. I'm glad that these past few days authorities had strictly implemented the wearing of appropriate helmet and imposed fines on those caught without one or wearing substandard ones along busy highways.
