I agree with saint, but to a point.
The pictures are (in a sense) a good thing. It shows what exactly a motorcycle can do to you when not handeled properly. I intend on getting my motorcycle licenes this spring, but I have riden before (78 CB650). I would never, ever ride something that dangerous that fast. Moreover HE WAS RUNNING FROM THE COPS. Many people will never ever get a point unless you show them the results. Thats why many commericals for weight loss ect show real skinny people.
I agree with who ever said that they feel bad for their family; I do as well. Its got to be a terriable thing to out live your kid (I'm assuming hes somewhat young).
IMHO, many people feel as soon as they get onto a sportbike, they feel they have to go fast and race it all the time. I remember one time (back in the day when I had the camaro
), me and a bunch of my buddies were driving down to Seaside (going right past the jackson outlets). And out of nowhere, these ******** come speeding by me at least doing 100 MPH. Keep in mind there was on coming traffic, they had people on the back of their bikes, AND it was almost night. WTF is wrong w/ people?!?!?!?!
