Default Man down... Maybe he deserved it...?

A mate got a text from his Mum yesturday, saying your Dad's had a bike accident but he's ok.
After speaking to her he finds out it was on Saturday, the guy had been drinking a lot and rowing with his wife and daughter (mate's mum and sister of course) they went out because he is a tw4t when drunk, like my mate really!
They later found out he had ridden out and misjudged the m25/m23 sliproad and come off hard.
He remembers nothing because he was so ****ed and the police will be prosecuting as soon as he's fit enough. Fortunately he had a good jacket on, but shorts, old gloves and a flip up helmet resulted in heavy road rash on his legs, hands and face. No broken bones though
Don't know what condition the bike's in but it's an old BMW so it doesn't matter really...
As much as I am concerned for him, and especially his family I totally believe he deserves everything he gets sorry it's harsh but what would he expect to happen?
Oh yeah and his daughter's getting married in a fortnight so guess who WONT be giving her away...

If you're aware enough to make it to a motorway junction you're aware enough to know it's a stupid idea to be getting on the bike

Hopefully he is OK, I would wish death on very few people, I feel more sympathy for his family

I would hope he'll lose his license for a long time and have a while to think about how daft he was

I can see where you're coming from but harsh to say he deserved it. I wouldn't do it myself (I hope) but anyone can make a mistake.

I'm sure it will be a painful lesson to learn, smashing up his bike, smashing up himself, not being able to give his daughter away and more than likely ******* his family right off. I'm sure it will be quite thought provoking for him....

Hmm not sure about deserved, but it was inevitable.....

Would have been better if he had been stopped and then disqualified without the hurty-bits, but hey, Speed Cameras are all we need to police the roads......
