At least three people died after a dump truck slammed into a group of motorcycles at 27th Drive and Carefree Highway in north Phoenix.
Eight motorcycles carrying at least nine people were stopped at a stop light when the large truck apparently hit them from behind. Three bodies were pinned under the truck.
Jesus H !!! Talk about the wrong place at the wrong time.
Not sure it’s the sort of thing we need to hear before the weekend though :blink:

Poor bikers… hope the remaining ones are ok and pull through. Dump truck driver will have to live with his actions forever, not an easy thing to do…
Not a bad thing to post before the weekend. A lot of people are rusty and this serves as a reminder to stay sharp!!
