"It's not my fault! I was adjusting little Johnny's seat belt and then the cell phone was ringing. When I went to answer the phone the road curved. Who designed a road with a curve there, anyway? And those motorcycles shouldn't have been there....."

IDIOTS!!

Be careful out there, they really are trying to get us.

No kidding. Apparently, it WAS on a curve. How'd you know ?! I ride with the attitude of "who's out to kill me today ?" No word yet on charges

What! People are held accountable for their actions in Canada?!?! Or is it that charges will only be brought if it was some kind of intentional act, like in the U.S.?

Bikes and cars tend to get cited for single-vehicle accidents, at least in CA. Then, if the perp causes damage or harm, the civil suits fly, but not much penal impact on the guilty....

Great way to operate and survive! Avoid all contact (eye and body parts) 'cause they won't pull in front of you 'til they see the whites of your eyes. Their eyes won't pop your "Bubble" but their bumper sure will.

Wonder if staying right would have helped these guys. I bet it would, at least some of them, judging by the number of bikes (5) hit by the car. Single file right, I'd imagine two or three at the most, simply due to increased spacing and lane margin. Don't ride like a formation of bowling pins, especially in the curves, in case of bowlers....

Good point. The road is a 2-lane and the turns are more sweeping than sharp. Buncha guys on an easy ride < 5miles from their destination
