The Honda rider was traveling at such a "very high speed", his reaction time was not sufficient enough to avoid this accident. Swedish Police estimate a speed of ~250 KM/h (155mph) before the bike hit the slow moving car side-on at an intersection. At that speed, they predicted that the rider's reaction time (once the vehicle came into view) wasn't sufficient enough for him to even apply the brakes. The car had two passengers and the bike rider was found INSIDE the car with them. The Volkswagen actually flipped over from the force of impact and landed 10 feet from where the collision took place.
All three involved (two in car and rider) were killed instantly. This graphic demonstration was placed at the Stockholm Motorcycle Fair by the Swedish Police and Road Safety Department. The sign above the display also noted that the rider had only recently obtained his license.
At 250 KM (155 mph) the operator is traveling at 227 feet per second. With normal reaction time to SEE-DECIDE-REACT of 1.6 seconds the above operator would have traveled over 363 feet while making a decision on what actions to take. In this incident the Swedish police indicate that no actions were taken.

Not sure I agree with the police's decision to use something that 3 people died in as a display though it certainly gets the point across!

So every accident involving a bike is the bikers fault?
Is that why the government spends shitloads in campaigns like smidsy and think bike to educate dumb ass fookin car drivers is it?
I stand by my previous statement

Ok, there are plenty of accidents due to rider error but the majority of accidents involving car and bikes are smidsy's because car drivers are looking for cars and don't see bikes.
I'm only alive because I've learnt to assume all car drivers are fucking morons.
And no one is disputing the fast that the rider of the bike pictured above was a fuckwit
Generally (<---key word) motorcycle riders are more aware and more skilled than car drivers because they have to be.
Don't hate us because you lack the skills and balls to ride a motorbike

Learn to spell, learn to ride a motorbike, then you will be a man my son
