Default Motorcycle Hits Semi-Truck (Graphic)

Sorry if this is a repost but it bears touting again. Be careful folks....it's not the speed that kills you, it's the sudden stop.

This happened back in April of this year. Story behind the pics:

Tulsa - A Broken Arrow man was killed early Tuesday morning after a motorcycle accident on Highway 169 near 81st Street .
Witnesses say the cyclist was going faster than 100 miles per hour when he crashed into the back of a semi truck between 81st and 91st Street at about one o'clock Tuesday morning.


Investigators say evidence shows the cyclist was going about 120 miles per hour at the time of the impact. It took the truck driver more than a quarter of a mile to come to a stop. When he did, he stepped out of his rig and found the motorcyclist dead at the back of the truck.


"The truck driver was not hurt," says Captain Matt Kirkland. "He said that the impact was so strong that he thought he was hit from behind by another truck."


Officers said there was no indication that drugs or alcohol played a factor in the accident.

if you look at the picture close, you can see that the helmet got wedged at an angle as the body tried to drop back down. the strap is holding his head
into the helmet. Its the helmet thats actually stuck in the truck.

the pics are real
