My prayers go out to them and it doesn't matter about lights I found that out last week. I had led high beams and foglights on at the time the #$&# drifted over right in front of me. I ended up going headfirst into a curb with my right side following. I'm in strict agreement with Snoking1127 assume everyone on the road is a hired assassin out to kill you.

Terrible...prayers to their family, friends and those who witnessed this tragedy.
IT IS, WHAT IT IS...

Condolences to the family. When I was in the military and I arrived overseas, one of the first things I had to do was complete a defensive driving course. All these years later, I use the techniques I was taught in the car and especially on my Spyder. When I am on the Spyder, my mindset is that those on the road with me will do the opposite of what they should prudently do!

 Baloo is my name. Spyders are my game. Well, it's a doo-bah-dee-doo, yes, it's a doo-bah-dee-doo, I mean a doo-bee, doo-bee, doo-bee, doo-bee, doo-bee-dee-doo. And, well, now. Ha ha! What have we here?

My prayers for the family. Today on the way to work I had a gal pull out of a convince store on a four lane road. And pull in front of me on my vespa scooter. She pulled int the inside lane, I was only going 15 mph. I hit the brakes hard and went for a slide. I work for KDOT and was wearing a bright yellow shirt and orange cap. She came over and apologized saying she didn't see me. I have road rash on my arm and knee. Went to hospital in an ambulance.
Put a down payment on a 2019 spyder limited last Saturday. Will pick it up from the dealer next Friday. This happened in a small town in Kansas. Alway be alert!
