Womp Womp
Wow
I hear them from my house ALL the time, speeding down I-75!
Karma got that one!😳
Agreed – Karma truly is a wonderful thing. So many of these motorcyclists have an entitlement mentality whereby they can do what they want when they want. This one is likely out of the food chain for good!
You are sad. How dare you say that about this young man. Karma does not even apply to this and is terrible that you would say that.
Lesson learned – you can’t always outrun Karma.
🚙💥🏍️
Karma…really your and idiot.
I can spell though.
Maybe you should do more to stop the incessant misuse of motorcycles by some instead of condoning it.
as he’s only of my family members gods got a special place waiting on you.
Prayers that others will learn from his misfortune… and that law enforcement may one day soon take these incidents more seriously, before more lives are lost or ruined.
I hope he survives, being young at one time myself, I realize that young people tend to see themselves as immortal and take risks that are stunning in their lack of thought. Prayers for his recovery.
Ya ought to hear em here on 301 at the Clay Co line. It’s a friggin drag strip it is.
All night long nuthin but racing. Cops can’t catch em so why bother.
Regardless of how it happened. All motorcyclist are human beings. Shame on all of your negative comments. Not one person deserves anything like this. May he recover fully and be blessed.
So sad to see the lack of empathy for a human being and their wellbeing especially when you do not know him or the situation. This is a 19 year old who had a terrible accident. Witness confirmed that this was simply a change of lanes that did involve higher speed in order to pass as you do the same in a car. He was not speeding to speed or driving erratically. What does it say about your character that you say negative things and wish bad upon another human being. Shame on you. We are all humans and ALL of us deserves understanding and empathy. Karma and thankfulness for this situation is simply ridiculous. You should be ashamed of yourself.
That’ll learn him.
