It's a weird thing. When it's your time, I guess it's your time.
I've had a few close brushes with death and it makes me wonder sometimes.

I hope the guy didn't suffer. Prayers for those left behind.

i was on a highway in my celica left lane.
from the right lane a car started rollin in reverse from the right lane, at an arc directly toward me.
i slam on the brakes and hope for the best .the cars left rear corner comes to a stop against the barrier, about 6' in front of me.
the cars behind me are piling up, crashing into each other.

RIP rider. As a safety professional, I always look at crashes to see how they could be prevented. Fact is every sinlge crash could be prevented. Of course it may have taken the rider sitting home on the couch to prevent this one. It seems randomly freakish and uncontrollable, but there must of been something the rider could do to prevent it. I'm always looking far, far ahead for unsecured loads and steering clear of them. Pickups, trailers, etc. You never know what could come flying out. Harder to do when the unsecured load is in the oncoming lane, but it's good practice to think about what you would do in this situation. Ride safe everybody.

99.99% could be prevented... sitting at home is not preventive, it is ignoring life...

Don was taken out by a purely random act of aggressive stupidity performed by a complete social outcast.. Might want to look at his final posts... funny how ironic life is some times...

RIP brother... sorely missed this weekend by all at the track.. we raised a glass in your honor!

Gotta watch out for dry wall~!~

It seems to be the most dangerous item dropping out of the sky around here...saw two sheets fly off a pick up and across the windshield of the vehicle behind it, vehicle ran about 100 feet down the back on the grass.

I've seen this happen about 3 times now, but only one that I actually saw strike another vehicle.

Good to see you Randy~!!~
