A shocking experience (motorcycle accident)

This happened last night while me and my daugther was driving along Imelda Ave.

We just came from a swimming party and I decided that we should go because I had to go to work the next day. I was driving along Imelda Ave. and I was going to make a right turn to Pasig Greenpark Village. Before I was able to make a right turn, there was a truck on the other lane. A blazing fast motorcycle was trying to put himself in a tight situation that ended in drastic accident. The motorcycle was at the right side of the truck (6-8 wheeler ata un) then I think he miscalculated and hit the tires. He catapulted to the other lane (which I was in) and dropped dead. Blood was all over his mouth the helmet stayed on the other lane where he hit the bus. The dead body was sitting in front of my car. The guy was lifeless. My daughter who was sleeping slipped because I had to brake hard (good thing brake pads and tires were practically new) and my car had a sudden stop. I saw the dead guy laying on the street. If I was in high speeds, I could've ran over the guy as well (which may lead to my demize) and put me to jail. My daughter asked me what happened (which I did not explain further). My foot froze and hands were cold as ice. This is the most drastic, morbid and shocking accident I ever saw and I hope I would never see it again.

This serves as a warning to motorcycle folks who tend to try being daredevils in the streets. Speed is fun but then use it responsibly. Sorry I don't have pics and I would never intend to take one because it was really nerve racking.

Dapat ganyan din siguro yung lapida nya kaso dapat XRM. XRM ata yung motor nya e. RIP

Imelda ave in Cainta Rizal is a wide street so temptations abounds when there are less vehicles hence you feel you practically own the streets...good thing for you didn't ran over the already lifeless body....may this serve as a warning to our fellow motorists to observe road discipline and practice defensive driving.

a very shocking experience indeed! good thing hindi na-witness ng daughter mo yung accident

May his soul rest in peace.

Just last week I was on my way to Tiendensitas and saw an accident in c5 involving a truck and a motorcycle. The truck seems to be positioned correctly turning right on one of the streets. The driver of the motorcycle was lying facing down (still with his helmet on) and there was a pool of blood surrounding his head. I don't know if he survived the accident.

I also saw this. This was around 4:30am. The accident already occured when I arrived. I work in Tiendesitas. He died unfortunately.

Its sad that these type never and will never learn, next thing they know they're dead already...

RIP to him.

A bit OT but what makes me quite irritated is that the truck or car drivers would be hit by a case of reckless imprudence even when the motorcycle rider was at fault. Even without the case, they would have to shoulder the medical expenses and even absorb the insurance expenses as the motorcycle rider has no money or insurance.

bakit ganun? naka helmet naman pala sila e dumugo pa ulo?

malamang substandard yung helmet... just to merely comply sa traffic rules para hindi hulihin pero offers no protection at all... sadly they'll never know now... RIP

[MyDestiny]

Just curious. Did you help the lifeless body in front of your car? Sometimes kasi mapapaisip ka if tutulungan mo. In your case though, I would assume tinulungan mo kasi sa harapan mo na mismo iyung na accident.

At any rate, sorry to hear about the incident.

The blood may not necessarily have come from the head trauma. Blunt trauma to the abdomen or chest can result in massive hemorrhage that may cause blood to regurgitate up and exit through mouth, thus expaining the spillage across the face

I friend of mine driving his van also suffered the aggravation of a motorcyclist cutting him in front as he made a left turn at low speed, then demanded he pay for PHp 150k in hospital bills! The police fortunately had no other conclusion than to say that the cyclist was at fault. The point is the piling kup of motorcyle related accidents should prompt motorvehicle and traffic officials to explore ways to screen motorcyle drivers for fitness. Add to this the use of motorcyles for crime (miurder, robbery etc). Each time I see a motorcyle now, I either feel afraid they will cause an accident as too often they squeeze in between cars not only on the sides but even cutting you in front I have yet to see a policeman apprehend a motorcyle driver for recklessness.

Bubuhayin ko uli ang thread na ito kasi my blog is related with a motorcycle accident along Quezon Avenue a while ago . . .

Kaya pala grabe ang trapik kanina sa Quezon Ave, at around 3-4pm, kasi may MC rider na naipit sa ilalim ng tanker na nasa larawan. Allegedly, the MC tried to beat the tanker before the U-turn slot by passing thru the left side. Fortunately, when we passed by the scene, the rider is still moving from waist up. I hope and pray that he'll be OK.

Mapa-biker man o cager , lagi po tayong mag-ingat sa pagmamaneho. Ang maling desisyon sa loob ng ilang segundo ay maaring pagsisihan habangbuhay.

Ooppss..... AFAIR, malakas din ang ulan that time - madulas ang kalye, mas delikado.

Something similar happened to a good friend years ago. He was speeding in a bike during a heavy rain. He hit a deep puddle, slipped, and skidded on the asphalt right into an 18-wheeler on the opposite lane. DOA. No chance whatsoever. It was also a closed coffin in his funeral.

I was just getting comfortable with a crotch rocket at that time. His death was traumatic enough to make me quit and stick with cars.

buti na lang sir hindi talaga nakita ng daughter mo yung accident... that would be a traumatic experience, lalo na bata pa.
