A man on a motorcycle was killed in Forest Cove on a residential street (Forest Cove Drive, I think) a.bout noon today. A White pickup was smashed & turned over on its side.  Not sure how it happened. Does anyone know the details.The disturbing thing to me was the guy that was killed was laid out on someone's yard with a sheet over him & his helmet and backpack beside him.It reminded me of how fragile life is. 4951

@Camelot: As much as I enjoy riding I still realize that every time I leave home there is a good chance I might not make it back. I have been hit once and had several close calls involving rude drivers. Being on a bike is like being in traffic on foot . I don't know what happened in this case but some drivers rarely yield to motorcycles or other cars for that matter. 4951

@uneasyrider: On the flip side, you have some, not all, motorcyclists that run the roads like maniacs without any regard for the vehicles around them. I see it almost every day on both my morning and evening commutes: guys on motorcycles running faster than they should, weaving in and out of traffic, not signaling, etc. I'm trying to do my part, they should too. Like I said, it's not all bikers, but there's plenty.

@djchavez0921: Unfortunately I have to  agree, in fact the last bike accident I witnessed was the result of a biker weaving in and out of traffic, on Hwy 290 no less. I'll pass a slow moving vehicle but only after signaling and making sure I have room to pass. For the most part I stick to country roads and avoid traffic as much as possible.

As a former motorcycle rider, it is sad.  No motorcycle will win in a vehicle crash.  We don't know the details, but if the white truck was smashed and turned over on its side, at least one driver was going pretty fast. 4951

We saw it today too but had to turn before we actually got there due to the backup.  We were wondering what was in the yard. Very sad to know.  4951

The person who was killed is our neighbor across the street.  His name is Chuck Coble, with a wife and 2 grown children, and a daughter-in-law.  Of course, the family is in shock.   4951

@malinnsaxe:
 
I was there right after the accident so I didn't see what happened but I stayed until the PD got there. Such a tragedy. My heart has been heavy all day. Please send the family my condolences and tell them I prayed for him and for them in this time of need, while I was there. So sad. 4951
