so what do you think happens now? the person that ran the red light is probably going to be sued for millions, right?

The guy didn't make it unfortunately. He was hit because he went as soon as it turned green and someone ran the light. RIP
Sad news.. That is why I always wait a second or so before crossing a light when it just turn green.

I want to get a bike also, but during my commute i see to many cars/trucks not seeing or paying attention to bikers coming and allmost clip them.

I allways give as much room that i can to them when i see them coming.

That sucks to hear. I just finished my msf course a few weeks ago and should have my M1 license by tomorrow. Don't know when I'll go riding though.... theres an accident on my block every month or so.

Its true that motorcyclist shouldnt be an offensive rider becasue of the size difference and protection difference between a motorcycle and a car but a car running a red light in a very crowded intersect in a school zone is very unpredictable
