Although we don't know who was at fault in the motorcycle/car accident, the rider ends up under the car with the bike and car on fire. Watch the video, some brave folks stepped in to help this trapped cyclist survive. I know some folks would stand by and watch, thank God there are those who will step up to the plate and risk themselves.   cooldude

Isn't good news wonderful.  That was great.  So glad the rider was not killed.  Didn't say anything about the driver, but I assume driver was fine.

I love good news.

Fantastic job by the bystanders.

Although I think they thought he was dead, becasuse they left him alone after that initial rescue.

Dangerously close to a burning mangled mess.

Good news comes from some weird places sometimes.

Looks like he's going to make it... Just a few broken bones and burns on his foot.  All should heal well.  Could have been worse and he's thankful.   cooldude
