I recently received this from one of my readers.

Remembering hearing a picture is worth a thousand words.  

After reading this, I hope it will get people to think about how dangerous it is and what can happen when using a cell phone while driving.

We would like to know what you think. dan@goldcoastchronicle.com

  

This is a true story….

 

The Honda crotch rocket rider was traveling at approximately 85 mph.

  
 The VW driver was talking on her new cell phone when she pulled out from a side street, apparently not seeing the motorcycle. The rider’s reaction time was not sufficient enough to avoid this accident.  

While looking at these photos see if you can find the motorcycle?

The car had two passengers and the bike rider was found INSIDE the car with them.

The Volkswagen actually flipped over from the force of impact and landed 20 feet from where the collision took place.  
   
All three involved (two in the car and the bike rider) were killed instantly.

This graphic demonstration was placed at the Motorcycle Fair by the Police and Road Safety Department…  

You need to pass this on to your friends, especially those that drive cars and  motorcyles.

Parents you need sit your teens down show it to them especially if they have a cell phone and will be driving for the first time.

 

Save a life…

Stop talking  and texting on Cell phones while trying to drive.  

The life you save may be your own…or mine.
