An accident involving a auto with a few motorcycles happened yesterday morning that ended up with a Mexican TV star (http://www.santafemods.com/images/Other/edgar_ponce_3.jpg)died.
News Story (http://news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&u=/nm/20050506/tv_nm/mexico_dc_1)
The guy came head on without stopping, as you can see from the video he had no intention of stopping. Although its been stated that the guy was drinking, it was not determined if he had gone beyond the alcohol limit. He actually got out of his car and started to call someone very calmly that he just got into an accident. He wasn't limping or anything, b ut when they took him down to the station, he started to limp.
Now even though the motorcyclists did not have any headgear, by the force of the impact regardless if they had helmets or not would not have help them. What I find stupid is that the producer did not (with the help of the local police) close off the road for the shoot of the video. Unfortunently it costs the life of a person.
This is the video, its shocking, so view at your own risk.

That sucks... I have seen numerous MVC's involving motorcycles and cars... never really had turned out good.
My wife works at the Trauma Center here in Philadelphia and she tells me of the crazy ass stuff that she has seen with motorcycle accidents.
If you have a bike BE CAREFUL. Wear your helmet... granted in this case it probably would not have helped... but you never know.

I half expected the driver to have had a seizure or heart attack or something...any other excuse is just unacceptable.

That looked and sounded exactly like something out of GTA. Car running down the motorcycles and crap... I saw a motorcycle accident while I was still in high school a while back: A pickup started crossing a busy intersection and I was walking out of the restaurant for lunch and a bike just SLAMMED into the side of the pickup. I saw the driver kind of hit the cab and slide across the hood all awkward. Killed him. Trucks fault. Pulled out when he shouldn't have. Can't criticize though, I've gotten into 2 accidents doing exactly what he did. It's just too bad it was a bike. Car and the dood wouldda been alive.
