Buddy of mine was killed last night on his bike..
Found out a couple hours ago. The muscle cars and the crotch rockets all seem to be friends ...most of the guys with the crotch rockets got a muscle car..be it a vette or a stang.. Guess the group was making their way to the local hangout...hitting the main streets to show off...hit onto the street where I live (which is a main street..in an apartment) and two dumbfucks in their little..hondas..acuras..whatever were racing down it.. Smacked my buddies bike...killed him. Turns out the dude was drunk as well..

Dunno just frustrates me from what I just heard on the news the dude took off and the cops found the car burning, extinguished it and then found the guy at about 7:15 this morning, still drunk.
Ya know, its hard to feel sad when you're pissed off. This is the third guy I know to pass away on his bike. The second who wasn't at fault..

Sorry to hear that man. I lost a buddy last year to a bike accident. It really hits home. I sold my bike after that....especially around the Tucson area....it's really dangerous around here for any kind of motorbike. It's a tough thing to go through.

I totally understand, and I'm sorry too. My uncle lost his leg after a drunk idiot hit him from behind on his bike. It's the crappiest way to go. I just hope that guy gets to be somebody's jailgirl for a long time

I'll echo Wombozi's statements. As a firefighter, I've been to more than my share of fatal accidents that resulted from street races, drunk drivers or people driving well beyond their skill envelope.

Well, toxicology reports are in, my friend was not under the influence of any sort of drug/alcohol. (Doesn't suprise me the muscle/bikes don't drink and drive)
From what I have heard the guys charge list goes from murder/hit and run/dui/ something having to do with lighting a vehicle on fire/ and continues further down to misdemenors.. EVERYONE is pissed about this, and is trying to get this dude fried. Apparently his story is "I just thought I hit him, so I took off, I didn't know I killed him" Guy is in his 30s
