Default A man die before my eyes on Friday

Sup everyone,

This event happened on Friday when I was driving home from work. I was the car IMMEDIATELY behind the Lexus RX330 that they're talking about in the brief article. I've never seen a man die before my eyes and it was quite an eye opener for me. The article isn't very detailed, but I caught the whole thing with my eyes, an image I really can't shake. This motorcycle (going over ~80-90 mph) T-boned the car in the outer lane, which was to my right, and was ejected from his motorcycle into the car in front of me. At this point I didn't notice the body, but I did see the bike on the floor with coolant flowing out and smoke being emitted. About a second later I see the man fall to the ground, under the car in front of me. The Lexus RX330 in front of me, not knowing exactly what happened, drove over him with his rear tires. The man was seriously like a rag-doll that was completely limp and lifeless. I feel horrible for the two innocent drivers of the cars. They must be completely tramatized, because of this irresponsible biker.

To all you bikers, keep safe please

-Jeff

Oh, what really sucks is that I drive by there everyday to get to the 405-S. Today I really did dread driving past there, because of the images it brought up.

A true reminder that life is fragile - keep safe.

Anyone with additional information was asked to call (949) 724-7024

Well, did you call? Sounds like they're looking for witnesses.

I'm so sorry you had to see that Jeff.

Count yourself as a victim since you have also been severely traumatized as a witness.

This will wear off with time.....but it will take some patience.

damn, that sucks.

did you stop your car to check what was up if he miraculously had breath still, that would have been my first reaction, even though he was obviously killed. i would have stopped anyways unless there were already people giving aid. or call 911 or something.

i once saw a kid on burbank blvd near the golf couse get nailed by a toyota tundra. it was the kids fault cuz he crossed when he shouldn't have and didn't give the tundra time to react. the kid made it alive though, but he did like a matrix like spin 7 times in the air before he hit the ground.

Sorry to hear that. People running lights, that's just foolish.
