During the Harley Crusing the Coast rally here in SC back in May there were two instances of riders getting rear ended and killed. One was two motorcycles stopped at a light with a car in front of them. A woman in an SUV plowed into them and the car. Both bikes were destroyed and the riders killed. The second instance was a bike with driver and passenger came to a stop to make a left turn when an 18 yo girl slammed them from behind. I heard she was texting. The driver was killed and the passenger survived.
I wish there were a way to prevent texting in an automobile while the enging is running. There are just too many accidents now days caused by cell phones that it's getting very unsafe on the roads for cages no less bikes.
