I hope the rider fares well.

Likewise, I hope the driver is able to deal with the emotional stress of being involved in a major injury accident.

OK, I’ll play devil’s advocate. Someone driving too slowly might have caused this accident.

Yeah when semi trucks are passing you your trying to hard to be safe.or entering the freeway doing 40. Not safe. Dmv says you should be doing the speed limit when entering. I see wishful ignorant people do stupid shit all day long. Also you do not have the right to try to slow down anybody. You are not supposed to interfere with traffic. But I watch stupid entitled people doing it all the time also.

Motorcycles and vehicles don’t mix very well. I am really hoping the rider will make a complete recovery from his injuries. I pray the rider will make it to the hospital and receive the needed care, which hopefully will make him as good as new again. I can’t lay blame on the cause of the accident because I was not there. The rider and vehicle driver will remember this accident for a long time. I wish the very best for both of them.
