Then 1 that was involved, backed up, turned left and drove off..

I only watched it once, but it looked lke both bike riders were it by that vehicle.

No one gives a flying F about the first guy lying off to the left.

Looks like the boy racers pushed it a little. Sad

From the looks of it, I suspect that the rider of the first scooter was dead.

RJ, from what I’d read of your post, I don't want to assume that you feel that the black car was in anyway responsible for the accident.  Those two bikes obviously were going a tad too fast for the turn and in no way should the drivers of the two cars be held responsible for the actions of the cycle riders.

The first car was halfway across the center line, possibly pullin a left.  The biker tried to avoid the car and laid it down. Second biker hit first bikers bike.

First bike was far to the right shoulder, you could see he was in a tight right turning bank leaning hard right, seemingly to be going down before the car started to cross the centerline.  The two scooters traveled over four times the length of the first car in the time that the first car traveled twice it’s own length.  You can see that the wiper blades were on, telling me that the roads may have been wet. 

Funny how the lady gets out of the car caring an infant and checks on the cars damage before anything else.

As a cycle rider, it is my responsibility to ride in a safe manner, and to be prepared for road conditions, let alone knowing my limitations and controlling my own speed. 

And yes, you can tell people cigarette’s can cause cancer, but you can’t force them to quit. 

I feel bad for the bikers, but you can’t blame the gun manufactures for someone killing themselves with a gun…..

The car was halfway across the line before the bike shows in a frame.

Neither car had anything to do with this wreck. He is already going down in the first frame, before the car was ever a threat.
