REALLY nasty Swedish - not a joke

A picture is worth a thousand words.

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 (155 mph) 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.

That`s what i call a big crash.

Nasty:doze:

The text is boll0x though. You’d never get an NC30 to do 155mph

'kinell :blink:

And not making a decision is STILL making a decision, or so it would seem.

Best wishes to the family of his victims.

I can’t work out what’s happened here.

If the car had pulled out of a side turning into the bike’s path it would have been embedded into the other side of the car as they drive on the other side of the road to us:doze:

I can’t work out what’s happened here.Errrrmmmm…the car was crossing a juction SLOWLY from the left hand side:w00t:

Do all cars in the uk only emerge from the left or do they also merge from the right??? Did when I was there last-

Hope this clears up this confusing matter for you;)

Thank you for your patronizing comments much appreciated.Yes cars in the UK do obviously emerge from the right but if they were turning across the lane the bike would normally hit the rear quarter rather than the side of the car.The only way i can see this accident happening would be on a cross roads.

Its a set up obviously, do you really think the fire brigade left three mulched bodies inside the car for the exhibition… what you’re seeing is a bike carefully “replaced” into the body of the car, and as its designed to “scare” people into driving more carefully, there was probably a touch of the artistic “No, Sven, push it in a bit more, it looks more brutal that way…”

I love this idea that “this is how the bike appeared was found by the police…” … right, you haven’t cleaned the blood guts and brains out before displaying this to children… sure Sven, whatever you say…

My thoughts entirely Tobes… It’s a set-up:w00t:

Tell that to the families involved…As to the car having been cleaned and the whole thing put back together…kinda obvious they would clean it up really;)

BTW Chunky - sorry if that’s the way my post came over - wasn"t meant that way and I apologise if it did.:slight_smile:
