    The deceased rider was doing 97 in a 60. The driver of the car making the turn was convicted of careless driving.

    My wife had a similar wreck a few days ago, she was hit by a Jeep Wrangler (modified) and totaled our CRV Honda (car). She just didn't see the oncoming speeding Jeep who was in the fast lane hiddon by median trees and shrubs. There were quite a few factors that the oncoming driver did wrong. It may go to court so I cant say much about it. But headlights and proper speed on a motorcycle are your friend. Accidents happen, we have to do our best to prevent ourselves from becoming a statistic.

    I also ride with a Gopro to and from work on the bike. You should see some of the videos ! Had a car head on into me in my lane yesterday morning, she was texting ! I had to ride in the bicycle lane and blow the horn and yell. Her eyes went blown up into basketballs when she seen me finally.

    Moving and sad. Ride safe everyone, ride at speeds that you can find a way out. And never ride faster than your guardian angel can fly.

    In FLA. not sure the car driver would have been charge..... possibly for improper turn, but the bike going 37 mph over the speed limit would relieved the car driver of most liability ,,,,, just sayin
