"CORAM, Long Island -- A 49-year-old motorcyclist has been killed in a collision with a car on Long Island.
Suffolk County police say Gregory Staab of Middle Island, was driving west on Route 25 in Coram when his motorcycle collided with a car. Police say that Coram resident Bogdan Zajkowski was attempting to turn left in his 1993 Buick when the vehicles collided.
Staab was pronounced dead at the scene."
Another left-turner. Hopefully he died quickly. Hopefully I'll die quickly too when someone turns left on me...

Don't even say that! :shock:
Just always be smarter and more alert and more cautious than this poor guy. I've had close calls, but never gone down and I don't intend to, either! :wink: 'Cuz I'm a caution freak. :grin:

A few weeks ago the same thing happened here. I Baton Rouge Motorcylce cop died after a car turned in front of him. He also died instantly.
The Baton Rouge Police riders are known for there riding skills as well as having won a few compititions. I know we're all human and make mistakes but these guys rarely do. Sometimes there is no amount of skill in the world that can save you from a unalert cager. It's one of the accepted risk of riding that we all sign up for everytime we swing a leg over out 2 wheeled passions.
Having said that ...my codolences to his family and friends but he died doing something he loved. Best way to go in my oppinion.
