From what I heard on the news there were no skid marks. Texting?

According to some reports he was late trying to get somewhere and was hauling ass. He obviously became very distracted.

A perfect title for this thread. For, when I heard of the accident on the news, I turned to my wife and said, "He's rich, why doesn't he have a driver?"

I got hit by a car while I was a child. I was on a motorcycle with my father. I got spanged off the bike and slid on my face. Compound fractures upper and lower leg, skin peeled off on the backs of both hands and arms as I protected my face.
I crawled out of the road on all fours and sat down on the curb to wait for the ambulance while my father pushed the bones in to try to stop the bleeding. The skin on my hands and arms hung off.
At the time, I never felt a thing. This was 1967, in Athens GA, and my father was a professor at UGA. The UGA football team doctors saved my legs. At no time from when I got hit until the put me under at the hospital about an hour later was I aware that anything had happened except that I had fallen off the bike. I kept apologizing for being careless.

So Keven, do you still ride? Not a trick question.

And miles to go before I sleep,

Yep. Ever since I got my license at 16. My mother thinks she must have dropped me on my head at some point.
But I never forgot one thing my father said - he saw it coming and reached down for more power to get out of the way but the little bike didn't have it.
Since then, all my vehicles have plenty of power. My bike is a six cylinder Valkyrie.

You are a fortunate man, Kevin.
