The Endless Font of Useless Knowledge...
Sorry to hear about this tragedy... my condolensces to the family and friends of the victim...
A similar incident happened about a week ago to a guy who works for my company... he luckily survived with some minor broken facial bones (was only wearing a brain bucket) and some road rash... totalled his Goldwing though.
I've got a safety presentation to make at our next all hands meeting... it deals with why motorcycles are invisible to most cagers, causing eerily similar accidents where the car turns left in front of the biker. The "explanation" for the "I didn't see him!" cases is the brain's visual filtering mechanism.
