I'm guessing his underwear and seat were casualties.

I like how he just keeps right on riding along afterwards. He probably was still in shock and did not know what to do so kept right on riding along for a little while.
That is why I 90% of the time ride on the right side of my right lane about 2-3 feet over from the right shoulder line, basically where the right side tires of the car in front of me would normally be.
A few years ago I had someone coming at me who crossed the centerline coming right at me doing 60, me doing 60, and he was near 1/2 way into my lane missed me by a few feet is all. Scared the crap outta me.
I do not see how HD riders (mostly among other group riders) ride side by side all the time with the cyclist hugging the centerline if not over with the hwy. pegs or mirrors. Just asking for trouble. O.K. I guess to ride staggered somewhat left to right/right to left, but never side by side. I will always be the one on the right side shoulder of my own lane just in case.

Had similar incident years ago in my car. Stopped at a light. Turned green I proceeded through intersection got just in oncoming lane to my right when I heard a crash, my rear window blew out from debris hitting my car and I saw a vehicle flash by behind me. Pickup truck came through a closed gas station hit a planter and bus stop seat went airborne ended up in parking lot on other side of street taking out 4 vehicles driver ended up being cut out of pickup truck mangled so bad. He went airborne never touching street till he hit parking lot across 2 lanes. If light was 5 seconds longer he would have hit me going over 80 MPH or more. I would have had to been squeezed out of the car like a sponge. Never know. drive safe everyone. |

Reminds me of a football running play. As you run right at the #2 hole and take the hand-off, the guard takes out the middle linebacker, and you just blow through the hole. Course that's on paper; sometimes the guard misses, and the middle linebacker knocks your dick in the dirt.
Ordinarily, I'd be a little irritated at a truck overtaking me in a single lane. On this occasion, I'd probably visit him in the hospital and shake his cast.
