No irony. I'm speaking from experience which many of you all haven't even entertained which is he could have done something to either avoid or minimize the damage. You can't deny he was moving at a good clip to hit that car and bend the forks the way he did. Especially when they were going in the same direction which meant his closing speed was pretty substantial.
You'll see it your way and I'll see it my way. I learned a long time ago as a rider I can't keep blaming everyone for situations that happen when I can do something to minimize those situations from becoming an eventuality. If you take a step back and consider thinking with this mindset for just a moment, you might start seeing things a bit differently. But it's up to you.
All the same, ride safe out there as it's definitely a Mad Max world on the road.
