Motorcyclist killed by motorist's stupidity

This may have already been mentioned on or around the day it happened.

The news story at the included link: https://www.cnn.com/2011/10/23/justic...?iref=obinsite, while dated Oct. 23, 2011, shows that even motorcyclists are not immune from idiot drivers. The fact that the guy was a Hells Angel member, doesn't justify the motorists stupidity.

"Based of the initial accounts of the witnesses, they are saying it did not appear to be an accident," he (Lt. Lemmon) added
I guess this may not get the single witness suicide swerve treatment that dead cyclists generally receive. Back when I lived near the site of that death the cops would have been investigating the other death. The Hell's Angels just aren't what they used to be, and that is probably a good thing.
