linky.
Guy on a 1300 zuki (busa?) hits a bonnet that comes off a trailer.

Strike 1: Not securing a load
Strike 2: failing to stop (ffs you woulda noticed SOMETHING, at least i hope you would
Strike 3: I can't think of a strike 3, aside from possibly molesting some black cats underneath a ladder.
Hope the guy pulls through ok.

Not unlike the poor bugger that was killed by a Tradies ladder on the M4.

I once had a refridgerator box come flying at me out of the back of a dumptruck (unsecured load)

It was brown trousers time! It missed me by a foot

I ploughed through a sheet of Gyprock that had come off a truck going in the opposite direction on the Ipswich motorway... :lol:

I was in a dodgy commodore company car luckily :lol:

Had a sheet of gyprock that was on the road come up off the road after a truck went over it (the air blast pulled it off the road and flicked it towards me), left some nice little light scrapy marks on my cars bumper. Least i wasnt on the bike, else it might not've been pretty.

Going down the ring road and the 4 wheel drive had a bike rack with three bikes on it break and slide across 2 lanes :shock: missed it by 2 feet and the swirving car by 1 foot :shock:

I had a queen size mattress (not too bad) and bed frame (bad) come off the top of a van at 100km/h I was following. I left a good gap but the one metal side of the bed frame did a good job of cartwheeling down the road towards me, I managed to avoid it but it couldve ended up being quite a nasty incident. Was on my mates Duc 748 at the time which I was riding to his wedding (he wanted photos with it) so I didnt have time to stop. Which was probably a good thing as I was foaming at the mouth with anger and not sure if I wouldve kept my temper.

People who dont secure their loads properly sh!t me to tears

I had the bar end of Mick's (ProblemChild) GSX come flying at me on the highway a few years back. It clipped the mirror, a bit of the fairing then my forearm before I even realised something was coming at me. Farking hurt my arm and put some gouges in the bits of the bike it hit, but it all got fixed after the Granya Rash.

It was only when he noticed it was missing at Eastern Creek that we even figured out what had happened.

Then there were all the bits falling off the Pearl on the same trip a year later :lol:
