I feel sorry for the fireman behind the wheel, but DAMN if you're gonna hit someone...

My cousin Mike had this kind of head on a passing incident Christmas eve 20 years and lost his life. Left behind wife and 2 kids. Ouch.

I ride and just can't watch things like this. I know it happens and was also taken down by a car ( 90 year old man) and barely missed death. I love to ride and will never give it up. I just cant watch this kind of stuff.

jokingly says...

I was way more impressed when I thought he was going 500mph. Damn my aging eyes...

Moving this video to nanrod's personal queue. It failed to receive enough votes to get sifted up to the front page within 2 days.

First responders arrived quickly.
