shit news about your dads mate, yea i no it's not always car drivers but the last few instances i've heard about have been i'm not to sure on what happened to my mate that passed away i don't think a car was involved.

one time i had a mate overtake a car at high speed on a hump back bridge, i honestly thought i'd be picking him up off the pavement that night, i didn't ride with him much after that i couldn't be arsed with the stupidity.
