Motorcyclist rams into back of tractor trailer going 120mph...

[LTC8K6]

Motorcycle airbags are worn by the rider, I believe.

I have seen them somewhere.

Yea it's too bad his airbag didn't deploy.

Looks like +2 for Darwin.

EDIT: It is possible that accidents like this happen to innocent people, but it looks like we won't have to worry about that in these two cases.

Did the airbag deploy?

4 more kills and he's an ace.

Surprised there wasn't more damage to the motorcycle and that he didn't splat more on the truck.

Hey, he was wearing a helmet 😉

 

[Pocatello]

I wonder if he found anything of interest inside that trailer, considering he paid with his life.

I think the close-up pictures were removed due to complaints.

[marvdmartian]

What'd one trucker say to the other one, driving through Oklahoma??

"Hey, bud, helluva mudflap ya got on your trailer there! Looks like one of 'em fell off, though....." :roll: :laugh:

 

[theprodigalrebel]

That's mighty disturbing. It's not gory but trying to visualize what he must have felt like in those last seconds...brrr. /chills

 

[Mucho]

For those of you asking about airbags on a cycle. It's supposedly a world first by Honda.

Who knows, might have saved this guy.

Airbags wont be making it to sportbikes anytime soon (which is what this guy was riding). Hell, most of them don't even put dampers on the forks still.

This article was all over the motorcycle forms a couple months ago... its a shame, but hopefully some squids see this and think twice before riding like asshats.
