Distracted riding......it'll get you every time.

Just last week a CHP report found a Sacramento County Sherriff's deputy to be going 107 mph at 1:00 a.m. with no lights or siren when he ran a red light and hit a car (permanent brain damage to the innocent victim).  His in car camera showed that he was looking down at his computer as he approached the intersection.  Told the CHP officer on the scene that he was only doing 70 mph.

What was so urgent at 1:00 a.m.?  Drunk driver?  Nope........stollen bicycle report. :nixweiss:

Yes, he's still on the force and no suspension.  The dept. will not disclose if there was any other disciplinary action because it's a personnel matter.

Many years ago when I had a Road King I run my front wheel off in a sink hole doing about 50mph. Had my feet on the highway pegs. The back end jumped up like that and stood me up putting the windshield against my chest. Next thing I know I'm flopped right back down in the seat!  :o No damage just scared the chit out of me!!  8)
