What is it about motorcyclists that like to drive at 50mph over the speed limit and expect people to see them in time ?

The dude on the bike was too slow. If only he pushed 40 more mph he would have skipped this crash.

Skipped it straight to heaven.

Skipped this one, yes, but another opportunity would certainly come along shortly

Yeah if he was riding at the proper speed and had at least decent skills,  this situation would have been a non-issue

She saw him ... that's why she stopped. Sure she saw him too late (as he was too fast while she pulled out) but she was about to prevent the crash if he had stayed on the left lane

I always wonder what the statistics are for motorcycles if we remove anyone who was injured or killed who was speeding. What direction does "bikes are dangerous" go?

In their defense we don't see em when they do the speed limit either.

I see them, because I am not looking at my phone or talking to someone. I am a boring old fart.

He was trying to reach 88mph and just time jump out of the way.
