And the point is? Accidents happen. Its a horrible thing. I feel for the family and the other rider who has to live with this. People die in cars everyday.
I dont get it, why point this out?

I think he's just trying to give the victim some recognition. Don't read too much into it. May he R.I.P.

No hostility at all. Why tempt fate? Doom and gloom?
Post what you want but why dwell on the dark side? I certainly feel for the family and said so.
I could walk out the door tomorrow and get hit by a truck.

That is really tragic, condolences for them. Maybe its a silly question for AC1967 but what is a concession? Is that like a freeway?

I think the point here is that you posted a link to a motorcycle accident and gave no other information. We can google "Motorcycle Accidents" and fill the forum with links. If it was someone you knew and wanted us to say a prayer then that's different. Posting a link does not let us know what you are trying to get across to us.
