    Wow that sucks all around. I would blow up my car if I ever hurt a motorcyclist with it.

    That sucks, but I agree with the charge. Here in the states they'd just give him a cookie and send him on his way.

    You begin your riding career with a bag full of luck and an empty bag of experience. The trick is to fill the bag of experience before you empty the bag of luck.

    This sucks, but at least it was on 10m (~30 ft) and not DOWN THE ENTIRE STREET at LEAST a MILE, with the dragged person SCREAMING for his life, leaving blood and guts down the street. (http://www.theblaze.com/stories/horr...o-tow-her-suv/)

    I can almost understand someone in a Semi trailor backing over a bike at a congested traffic area (toll booth) but at least this COULD have been a total accident.

    I mean, shit happens, as terrible as it might be, but at least this was actually an ACCIDENT and there wasn't anybody being ignorant or retarded.
