Don't get all pissed off at me now,,,,. I rarely post morbid stuff, I just thought those who were wondering, like I was, how the riders helmet came off might want to know how it happened.
I still have several friends who are active in the department I retired from, so I hear about a lot of stuff that goes on. One of my friends is a 40 something motor. He is all excited, as he got his new BMW a couple of months ago. He is a test subject for the bike, as they have mounted a M4 on...
Okay I have a question. What the hell is wrong with this forum? It won't let me edit my posts and every time I try to navigate the forum it sends me to some advertisement page???????????
Okay TRIICK. You made your point. If my post offended anyone, that was not my intent.
YOU must understand that after 28 years in a career that exposed me to the worst atrocities ANY human can see, except a solider in combat, I am a bit jaded and blood and guts no longer bother me! I could tell...
Remember the thread I started about three weeks ago regarding the Marine that was killed by the drunk turning in front of him? Well I talked with the investigating officer this week. The REAL reason the guys helmet came off was not due to his failure to secure the strap. What happened was the...
A sad day for sure. There has been quite a few motors killed or badly injured in So Ca lately. LAPD had one get crushed between two cars a couple of days ago. The officer is still critical and it does not sound good.

Yes. When the female who lives across the street came out and was FIRST on scene, the helmet was off the riders head about 10 feet N/W of him on the side of the road. Everyone I talked to states they see riders of all types with their helmet straps unfastened riding on the roadway...
Yea back in the 70's a tow truck driver I knew told me he had worked an accident between a slow moving trash truck and a M/C that was hauling ass and ran into the rear of the truck. They found the guys head still inside of the helmet stuck to something on the rear of the truck. A quick way to go...
To add salt to the wound, I'm sure the drunk has nothing to go after, no house or property. And if he has insurance, I'll bet it's the minimum. So I hope the rider had high uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage!!
