Default Here is an accident situation that pisses me off...

Motorcyclist dead in three-car crash near Deltona
Sarah Lundy | Sentinel Staff Writer

A motorcyclist died Saturday night in a three-car crash on Elkcam Boulevard near Deltona, according to the Volusia County Sheriff's Office.

The man's name has not been released pending notification of next of kin.

The wreck occurred shortly after 10:15 p.m. on Elkcam near Montecito Avenue.

A GMC Yukon was heading east on Elkcam when a vehicle in front of it turned to the right. At the same time, the driver of the Yukon attempted to turn left on to Montecito. The Yukon turned into the path of the motorcyclist, who was going east on Elkcam.

The impact caused the motorcyclist to hit a Honda Civic stopped at a stop sign, according to the sheriff's office.

The driver of the Civic pulled forward, running over the motorcyclist who had fallen off his bike. He died at the scene.

The crash is still under investigation.
My take? Charge the driver of the Yukon for striking the motorcyclist in the first place. Then charge the idiotic driver of the Honda Civic for murder for pulling forward and effectively killing the biker. Why the heck would you pull forward after something or someone hit you? Morons...

Not being there I can't answer that. It's a shame it happened.

I heard that. Happened not too far from where I live. I'm on the side of town where UCF's located, so there's lots of these little Civics with drivers who can't drive.

Must have had a helmet on cause they didn't say anything. If the rider didn't have one they'd be sure to mention it.
