i dont think the pranksters were counting on a motorcycle coming through. I doubt they even though about that. They were probably thinking it'd be funny to see some car driver freak out right before he hit it. Probably just a variation on the whole "saran wrap on the toilet" trick.

Reminds me of the time when some pranksters stole a stop sign from an intersection. Later on, a car driving through the intersection was plowed by an 18-wheeler; all the passengers were killed.

The idiots were eventually tracked down and charged with manslaughter.

Agreed.

How do people not the plastic wrap that's placed on the toilet for a prank? It's not even 5 feet away from you and you don't even have to look out for other traffic in the bathroom.

So you're trying to tell me that one layer of saran wrap is going to cause an accident like this?

It was not 1 layer and even so, hit a large enough 1 layer saran wrap wall on a bike esp if over the screen and it's not going to be good. Saran wrap is pretty tough for it's thiness.

A good swat on the nose with a rolled up newspaper will do the trick!
