Now how did this crash happen? A straight bit of road, by Bermuda standards. Don’t even see any potholes or trenching to throw a biker off course. Yet two of them still occupy the same bit of road at the same instant.
One, or both, caused this crash.
The carnage continues. Sympathy goes out to the first responders who have to deal with this everyday.
“were travelling in opposite directions along North Shore Road …”
Nothing said about overtaking or excessive speed. How odd.
Two motorcycles on the side of the road all the cops are doing is standing around looking at each waiting for the accident investigator. Just take bloody pictures, mark the road where the motorcycles landed so we can get the traffic moving for crying out loud! It seems we are going backwards in this country.
