Watch out for those speed bumps

Looks like the MC cop was ok but it could have been much worse.

He's lucky he didn't get crushed by the bike. Pretty scary if that's a regular size speed bump, something else to watch out for.

Re: Watch out for those speed bumps

It's a good thing he had a helmet on if you watch how many times his head hit the ground. Too bad they don't wear a full face as that last hit when he stopped was right to the kisser.

Looks like a good example of not looking where you are going.

Re: Watch out for those speed bumps

I found the vid on Youtube and it says they were part of the Presidential motorcade which would explain all the cops on the sidewak. He certainly wasn't aware of his surroundings hitting the bump that fast.
