Travel safely people. Be cautious!!
Slow down and live. Pay attention while driving.
People take too many chances while driving.
They think that they own the road.
Excuse me. That is my son and it was not his fault. So dont be judging – you dont know what actually happened!
Were you there? Perhaps you’re at fault as well.
To be fair, if you look at the picture and read the information given, he wasn’t in the wrong. Rider was west bound, car was negotiating a right turn meaning they were eastbound. They crossed into his path to enter the driveway. You always give way to traffic on your right. I’d guess they thought they could make it and he suffered for their lack of judgement.
Ok so what happened? When I drove past it looked like 2 bikes who were riding together collided with each other?
Its actually pretty easy to see how this happened but that’s all I’m saying about that. After the lockdown the driving habits here have been at an all time low. We all need to slow down and pay more attention.
I hope your son is ok and wishing him a speedy recovery.

If that aint the truth , nothing is !
The sheer lunacy I see every time I risk going out on the roads is mind blowing. I can’t believe that the Commissioner hasn’t seen it when he’s simply out and about in an unmarked car and hasn’t ordered the ‘service’ to step up .
Why there isn’t at least one road fatality a day here is a mystery to me.
It’s madness. I now know why TCD makes you weave through the cones. It’s practice for driving through town because people think putting on their indicator or hazard lights gives them the right to block the road. Had a guy behind me the other day going nuts on his horn behind me making the turn from church street on to par la ville by 24/7 because I gave way to the traffic coming from the rosebank side. Funny thing is their light goes red and our side gets a green arrow to make the turn. All you have to do is…wait 30 seconds? I gave him the benefit of the doubt and assumed if his car sat still for too long his d!ck would fall off.
