March 14th 2010: BUSHNELL, Fla. —  Four people on two motorcycles have been killed in western Florida after a pickup truck struck both bikes.

All four motorcyclists were ejected and one victim was thrown through the windshield of another truck.

According to the Florida Highway Patrol, a truck driven by 45-year-old Paul Sermons was trying to pass a slower, westbound vehicle on Saturday night near Bushnell. Police say he didn't realize how close the motorcycles were in the eastbound lane of the county road. He says he wasn't able to slow down and hit both bikes.

The names of the motorcyclists haven't been released.

A few lines from "Life Is A Fragile Thing":

"Life is a fragile thing
And it can change within an instant
Nothing is safe from the effects of change
No person or possession we're given

The only things we can hold forever
Are the memories in our hearts
The loves we share upon this earth
Before it comes our time to part

So choose a pathway that brings you joy
Take time for quiet moments each day
Appreciate the challenges that strengthen your soul
And the blessings God sends your way

Don't let your heart be ruled by anger
It's just not worth the stress
For the tumult will only expand in your heart
And crowd out happiness

Live each day with wonder and gratitude
For the beauty that surrounds you
And share your abundance generously
It'll ensure future blessings will surround you

Meekly accept that life's journey will include
Unexpected, soul-wrenching heartaches
That will bruise your soul and alter the course
You always imagined your life would take

And when that happens you'll have the choice
To embrace hope or hopelessness
You can't avoid grief, but you can refuse to accept
A lonely future of bitterness

So choose to be grateful for each moment
With the loved ones you've been given..."

Senseless deaths.  Riders that are stopped and still hit is just too unfortunate.
