I've been pondering for a while whether to do this "list" article. I'm dead-set against rubbernecking and glaring at pictures of deadly crashes, specially those of motorcycles, but seeing crashed motorcycles is often a way to make you think a bit. And thinking and realizing that this could happen to you is actually a good thing.
Bold bikers don't live to be old, so it's a question of knowing that anything can happen out there, and to be prepared. Specially when you read something like this in the news (notice from the photos, that many accidents involve cages):

The car's driver, Carlos Ramirez Bobadilla was arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence after he slammed his car head-on into a group of motorcycle riders celebrating their club's 10th anniversary, killing four motorcyclists and his companion, authorities said Sunday. It is unclear if the driver's alleged alcohol consumption contributed to the collision and is not being held responsible for the deaths based on evidence collected so far. (AP Photo/619Media.com) |
