Accidents

Receiving Motorcycle accident news from around the country every day and seeing the remnants of a MC accident this weekend I wanted to post this.

Out of 11 reports from Friday and Saturday this weekend, something struck me. The breakdown:

From Saturday: six accidents reported, ALL of them the driver loosing control hitting trees, parked cars, and ditches, all dead.

Friday:
Three of the five reported, same as above with only two accidents involving another vehicle with one of those involving a CHP officer on a call and is in critical condition

The accident I saw Saturday near Mohican River area in Ohio, a bike laying against a guardrail, on a curve, the fate of the rider unknown.

Nothing in common with ages, helmets or not, just seems for whatever reason riders aren't paying enough attention to what they are doing or being careless. Pay attention and Ride safe!!!
