155mph bike crash... (not graphic)
 
:eek:

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.

Take note of the can and hrc stickers, it may be a hrc lump. My mate is building a vfr engine using hrc internals, reckons it will be good for 80 bhp at silly rpm :eek:

Old as mentioned....but sickening all the same :(

if that was a true 155mph, there would be nothing left of the bike at all - i'm going on around the 100mph mark for that impact :clap:

As said, done and dusted.

It's an VFR750R RC30 and I don't believe the impact speed personally either, I'd guess at nearer 120mph.

I found another site claiming 200mph :cry:

But to befar im a Lorry driver and some of the things people do in cars realy shock me :roll: They pull out in front of me thinking "he's going to be driven slow im not waiting for him" ect I mean a bike there so easy to miss at the best of the time but with some of the car drivers on the road these days its surprising theres not MORE accidents :roll:

But thats imo ;)

Hay i got bikes i never said it wasn't the car drivers fault, the thing is bikes are harder to see and they don't always make it easy for them self aswell. i always move over for them, i thinks it stupid them capping the bike noise at 75 Decibles think how many more will be killed since u can't hear them.

Here my getting some Air Time
