prayin the rider is ok
Thank you for your prayers. We truly it. I’m his aunt & we’re at the hospital now praying the same. God is always good no matter what. Blessings
im his sister. He didn’t lose control of the bike so I don’t know why that was written. He has some pretty bad injuries but thank God he is alive. Thanks all <3
Maybe the police officer was hasty in initial statement? Nonetheless, main point is the well being of the injured person, so hope he’s able to recover speedily.
That’s the script when car drivers cause the crash.
Well looking at the picture, looks like an open shut case for the police. The car exiting a minor road unto a major road, should use all care n caution. Didn’t even look like driver of car saw bike, because car didn’t make it across the centre line.
Thank goodness rider of bike wasn’t seriously injured.
Words say rider lost control of the bike. Picture says a thousand (different) words.
To him and his family and friends. I hope you are doing ok, praying for a quick recovery for you.
it seems the car driver’s fault!
Yes, the rider lost control of the bike after the car came out into his path! Praying for a full recovery and grateful it wasn’t more serious. Thank you Lord!
giant cars on bermuda’s roads
Thank you all for your prayers. He’s doing better …
Thank you so much for your concerns and prayers. I broke my left Femur and dislocated the left side of my Hip. Currently I’m in very good hands and slowly but surely recovering. Once again thank you all so very much for your concerns and prayers. May God bless you all and have a wonderful weekend.
So glad to hear that you are ok (with the exception of the injuries) Enrique. Take care and hope you recover from the injuries without any further damage.
I am so relieved to hear you are on the mend—the photo looked terrifying! Your Guardian Angel was doing his job! Best wishes for a speedy recovery with no lasting effects! You have lots of living left to do!
It’s obvious the car was at fault. I can see quite clearly behind the car that there is a STOP order painted on the road surface – and by deduction would state there is an octagonal free standing sign before the junction.
I hope the rider recovers quickly and suffers no lasting injuries.
After looking at the photo – one can only draw 2 conclusions!! Very careless driving or under-the-influence!! What else could possibly cause this accident?? Be honest with your reply!!
People are still NOT following the rules and laws of the road – and unfortunately people are going to be killed or seriously injured!! Can you imagine if the speed limit was 50 /60 MPH??
It is what it is!!
First of all I wish the injured young man a speedy and complete recovered.
It’s always amazing how people can look at a single photograph and automatically conclude what caused an accident such as this. MAKE MY DAY has even concluded that one person was either very careless, or driving-under-the-influence (at 5.15pm in the afternoon). Must be a real Sherlock Holmes!
Looking at this photo we have no idea whether other vehicles were in the immediate area, or what speed either the car or the bike were travelling at, nor do we have any first-hand accounts from witnesses. I suggest we wait until the police have conducted a full investigation, interviewed witnesses etc. before we rush to judgement.
Maybe the car stopped to let somebody turn and the bike decided to take the left- inside lane??
maerk….you are 100% wrong and there were multiple witnesses to back this up. So your conclusion is as stupid as it is wrong. Making assumptions will get you nowhere!
It’s good to hear there were multiple witnesses so the Police can fully investigate the cause or causes of this accident, and as Scores says, making assumptions get us nowhere. In the meantime wishing the injured man a speedy recovery.
ok heres another conclusion , i can already look at the back fender and see there are drag marks on it from popping…..
there is no other way ur fender would get eaten like that from this accident…. and now if u like to pop,u speed and are reckless…
and all these ppl saying god bles, sorry medicine heals not prayers.
i break my leg im not gonna go to church ,im gonna go toa doctor
again i really must say this i dont know you, and i am glad yoou are ok….
im just trying to be an outside perspective and look at all the evidence
first off i would like to state the im glad your alive and havent suffered life changing injuries.
but coming from a mechanical standpoint, the damage caused to both the car and bike did not happen at anywhere near the recommended speed limit or the 50-60 most people drive. i am not trying to downplay the fact that both people r more then likeley at fault…. i myself have been in quite serious accidents , AND HAVE LOST TOO MANY FRIENDS!!!!!
but from the picture you can only assume that you were in a hurry, car didnt see you and pulled out….
also i love how not one person has asked/wondered about the fact if the driver was injured at all
he doesn’t do no damn popping and the official police statement claim the rider was in no way at fault. So shut ur stupidity hole and learn the facts before u add ur unwanted 2 cents. And furthermore ur late as ever on this article so ur posting completely outdated trash and u can ask the authorities involved themselves if u so wish to. People like u need not comment.
