I'm not saying that all motorcycle rider are the same, but there are some that just get on my nerves especially the ones with those sporty ones, they think they are in a speedway track and they're not. I've come across some idiots that cut you off that in that moment you wish them the worst, sorry but is the truth.

Salvador was one of my closest friends. I knew him for 19 years. He was an amazing person and more than words can say, he was a brother to me. He left behind a wife and 4 kids. May god take him into his grace and may his family remember him as the great man that he was, just like those who knew him do. There will never be enough words to describe or paint a picture of what an awesome guy he was.

REST IN PEACE BROTHER, WE'LL ALWAYS REMEMBER YOU.

P.S. I ask that his memory be respected as one would like theirs to be. We his family mourn our loss and please respect that. Thank you.

Ride a bike on the streets long enough and crashes will happen, it's inevitable.

Sorry for your loss.

You've obviously never been anywhere near a bike because you don't drive a bike, YOU RIDE IT. If you pay close attention he swerved around slow traffic and when a rider is lane splitting (which is mostly done when traffic is slow, hence accident happened at 5PM = traffic) some car DRIVERS don't look at their side view mirror and just blindly change lanes clueless that there may be a bike next to the car. A car may have done just that and he "swerved around slow traffic". I do admit that there is also irresponsible riders as there are drivers. So, you can't just assume that he was going fast because FYI a 30MPH wipe-out can kill.

My thoughts and prayers go out to Salvador's family.
I've been riding for almost 3 years and i understand both sides: careless drivers and careless riders.
As a favor to us bikers, if you see a motorcycle "splitting lanes" please open up when possible It is always GREATLY appreciated. I personally try to do so every time i'm drifving my truck. If you dont get a "thank you" from the rider Its not that we're being punks it's just a little tricky to let go the accelerator or clutch to do so.
When splitting lanes I try to warn cars that are too close to eachother by reving the engine and making the pipes roar. some people find that super annoying,(I was one of them till I started riding). I'm a firm believer that loud pipes save lives. Riders be safe and curtious to drivers and drivers thanks for sharing the road with us.

whom ever u are lets not forget that what comes around goes around. By the way I knew the guy very well and I think that u should be a bit more respectful because u never know when its your turn to go. What if you one day never make it to your dinner date or wherever your going. Also, he was trying to avoid being hit by a car that changed lanes without looking!!!!! I'm surprised u didn't choke on your food that night. The devil must really like u!!!!

Daily Horoscope for January 4

Pisces

Family, friends and in-laws are all hard to please. It is better to please yourself for once, dear Pisces, than to bang your head against a wall. You need to relax and get in touch with your own feelings. Do not hesitate to speak up for someone you care about. Someone may try to curtail your freedom. Set them straight and do not give in.
