One thing for sure is that a large pickup truck offers way more protection than a 500-lb motorcycle. Motorcycles just look really cool & dynamic even when standing still ..... they are like a work of art, driving machine that hooks people onto riding them.

Once you is dead ..... that's all there is .... the end. Is riding a motorcycle worth the high risk? ......

If the Fallen-7 had been riding in five different Subaru's and not on Harley Davidson's ....... there would have been much much less death for evryone. So's maybe you Harley riders want to go trade in that Harley and go get yo-self a Subaru!
Well respectfully I find your post pretty narrow minded. I both drive and ride and I do expand my zone of awareness hugely when riding. That being said this kid was drugged for sure and even if one rider was also "drugged" on drink that was his problem. The truck driver had much more to be responsible for as he was driving a tank versus a bike. It matters little than one or two bikers were also legally over the limit, this kid was totally stoned out and I think his license was also removed before for cause. he is guilty and needs to serve time and never drive again.
