Nom, what do you class as a "probable fact"? I'm intrigued.

"A cager probably ran the poor guy off the road" is as bad as "the motorcycle was probably speeding or weaving through traffic".

I cringe every time I hear of any accident that involves the loss of anything. Here's hoping they can stitch you back up, whoever you are.

I'm guessing this is this guy:

Man dies after motorbike hits tree - ABC News (Australian Broadcasting Corporation)

Died in hospital last night.

That was an incredibly short article.

Quote:
A 24-year-old man has died after a serious motorcycle accident in Perth's northern suburbs yesterday.
The man was travelling along Marmion Avenue when he lost control of his motorcycle and hit a tree.
He died in Joondalup Hospital overnight.
Anyone found any more details anywhere? Doesn't say anything about speed, road surface, other drivers involved etc. I find it hard to believe that someone can just lose it on a nice straight road like Marmion.

Such a shame, RIP rider

Oh...Look. Carl O'Callaghan is looking into installing 'one way spikes' for freeway entry and exit ramps to curb the number of incidents that have occurred with drivers going the wrong way.

OI! Dickhead.....what about motorcyclists that are being run down by drunken drivers? (Not suggesting that this is the case with this incident).

But...on a stretch of road like Marmion Ave, that is traffic light controlled every 5kms, and of good road surface/condition, what went wrong?

RIP rider. Another unfortunate, untimely, un-needed loss of life. Sincere condolences to family and friends.

Are we sure it's the same guy? Did he hit a tree or a sign? Or was it really bad and had two accidents on same street in same day?

RIP.

It does appear to be the same rider.

Bloody hell, please ride like everyone's out to kill you. Which sometimes isn't far from the truth anyway.
