Hello Beeler bloggers,
Memorial Day weekend is upon us. Take so time this weekend to memorialize & remember those who paid the ultimate price for our freedom.
Also, please take time to exercise extreme caution on the road ways. This post is about a driver who was talking on a cell phone and didn't see on on-coming motorcycle. You can see the entire story by clicking here

Can you see the motorcycle? |
How bout now?
The Honda rider was traveling at approximately 85 mph. The VW driver was talking on a cell phone when she pulled out from a side street, apparently not seeing the motorcycle. The riders reaction time was not sufficient enough to avoid this accident. 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 20 feet from where the collision took place.

All three involved (two in the car and the bike rider) were
killed instantly. This graphic demonstration was placed at
the Motorcycle Fair by the Police and Road Safety Department.
Please think twice about using your cell while driving. |
Until next time,
Chris Beeler
