"Police say speed is to blame for B.C.'s 26th fatal motorcycle crash of 2004.
Quesnel RCMP say Gregor Anslow McCrae, 59, of Quesnel, was travelling at least 120 km/h in an 80-km/h zone on the Nazko Highway when he failed to negotiate a sharp left turn with an advised speed limit of 60 km/h. McCrae went off the right side of the road and down an embankment. He died at the scene.
This year has been especially dangerous for bikers. A total of 33 motorcycle riders were killed on B.C. roads in all of 2003."
according to the report, he was doing 120km in a turn marked 60km? that's pretty fast.. maybe he hit some debris, maybe he was drinking, who know's. In all, be careful.
Saddened by the loss of so many for so little
Fate does not have be this way
If he was going *at least* 120 km/h in an 80-km/h zone and failed to negotiate a sharp left turn with an advised speed limit of 60 km/h then prudence was absent. Sadly some training can’t corroborate prudence, that is more attitude than skill.
