i think stupidity factor just went thru the non existent roof.
i didn't hear about it on the news this morning, wonder why.

We can guess all we want, but we'll never know the cause. I've never been perfect behind the wheel, and without knowing circumstance it's a bit presumptuous to assume recklessness. Stuff happens, and people make mistakes, even when driving responsibly.
Judging by the damage to the van and T-Rex, I don't think the was going that fast.

From the looks of that picture, it appears that the motorcycle had spun and slid backwards into the van. Or am I not seeing it correctly..........my Kindle Fire won't enlarge that page for some reason.

He definitely backed into the Van. Judging by the condition of the rollbar: he shifted the entire rear of the bike over to the right by quite a bit.
Could he have been spinning donuts in the road, and had the last one get away from him?

Is there another article? NY has a helmet law, and that's a pretty easy one for them to enforce. I can't recall anyone riding without one over the years I lived out there...they wouldn't make it far with the police presence out there.

We have the helmet law here yet the slingshot drivers seem to overlook it quite often and if loaned they see it as a car...
