motorcycle vs. flatbed I-80

wow..

I feel sorry for that flatbed driver. He was just at the wrong place at the wrong time. Now the question is, did they list it preventable or non.

 

Sad story.

I remember back in high school, I had a KZ175 dirt bike. Young and dumb I took it out on the highway. A trucker passed me and they will suck you in. I remember having to fight to counteract the vacuum. That was my last time on the highway. I still run the back roads.

 

So its true huh? About the vaccum sucking you in??? I saw a lady some years ago who worked at a TA service desk who said that happened to her. She had a really bad limp, so i HAD to ask what happened. Her husband, who also worked there just had this aweful sad look on his face.

Turns out they were merging onto the interstate and the wife got too close to a big truck, got sucked in and wiped out. Sad to see her limping around like that. But she was smiling still. Greatful to be alive i guess.

 

A small lightweight bike will be blown all over the road. The heavier the bike the less worries. When a truck passes me or I pass one; them blowing a tire is what worries me....
