I love the language in the report - they were going over 40km/h to suggest that they were speeding.......

not being racist but if you watch to the end you can see the lady is wearing a white nijab - this may have hindered her view of the traffic - I doubt this would have made any difference as she didn't even make any motion to stop and look - wonder how Allah would view this accident?? lol

the motorcyclists may have had more chance if they moved to the left of the lane to increase their view of traffic from the right - don't know if this would have helped though...

this report has a nice photo of one of the riders doing a burnout...

I notice that the offending driver's view of the oncoming traffic was mostly blocked by 2 adjacent SUV's. It just as easily could have been a truck that T-boned her and she would not have seen it coming.
