The original report of the accident in question makes no mention of the van turning right from the wrong lane
Well it is in the very first post... so unless the poster is wrong which he could be since he said "I think what happened..."

I assumed there must have been multi lanes if he was overtaking the van. I'm oh so terribly sorry for getting the facts slightly wrong.
Its not like I gave out personal details and his address so everyone can come visit, its just another anon rider to everyone on here unless they know the guy... I don't see the problem really.
My off appeared on here as well without me posting anything by word of mouth, it really didn't bother me in the slightest.

True on both counts, Saf was given a pretty thorough interrogation that evening. I made my post at about 3:30am, so i'm hoping i can be forgiven for a slight grammatical error

.
The street along which this happened_wasn't_multi-lane. The van couldn't've turned right from the wrong lane.
All i know is that he got taken out rather effectively :-\.

Mina mate there was probably more accidents per rider in the past "cages" are better behaved now(i know you will find this hard to believe), road quality is MUCH better n bikes/tyres/safety gear is also much better. Just no one spoke about it as it wasnt newsworthy n no net of course.
