Motorcycles dies in crash with cager.

Careful out there guys. In this case, a car slowed to turn left apparently with no turn signal. Bike passed and car turned into him. Take an extra second and guess the worst possible thing the cager could do.

this is why 1. I dont pass when a car randomly slows down and 2. always wear a helmet whether it is required or not

a full face helmet probably would have saved his life...
i don't pass at low speed unless its a complete traffic standstill. the cagers reaction time and visibility are minimized since he's mostly concerned about making the turn.

sucks... Poor decision by the motorcyclist ended poorly for the motorcyclist, and scarred an innocent car driver for life.
