another motorcycle crash....
on my way home tonite i see a MVA car vs motorcycle. i get a little closer and i see its a friend of mine thats on the bike.
there was like no traffic, he was stopped at a red light. he was looking in his mirror at a durango gettin close and not slowing down. he tried to jump off the bike but only got like halfway off when it plowed into the back of him and sent the bike flying out into the intersection. the guy gets outa the durango n was liek are u ok?? do we really have to call the cops?? blahblahblah... anyway my friend calls the cops obviously, they popped the guy for a DUI and impounded the durango. my friends ok but goin to get his knees checked out at the hospitol right now.

Wow, close call. Glad he had his wits about him and watched the Durango approach. Good lesson for everyone, on 2 wheels or 4.

Damn, good thing your friend was paying attention! Hope he's OK, and he can get some decent restitution outta the deal.

Jezzz...good thing your friend was paying attention....Sounds like it woulda been a lot more serious if he hadnt attempted to get off the bike. Glad that he is ok. I hope they lock the guy in the Durango and throw the key away!! I hate drunk drivers!!!
