Default motorcycle accident

I had a friend riding home from work on friday night. He stopped and pulled off on to the shoulder to put his rain gear on. And some lady crossed over the white line and hit him. It sounds like she was aressted on the spot for drugs. Unfortunatly he didn't make it.

Condolences on the loss of your friend. RIP.

This is exactly why I always tell people not to stop on the highway,&nbsp\\;it's safer to just get off at an exit and do&nbsp\\;what you need to do there.
