[from the article]...."no actions were taken"....
WTF? On WHO? they HAD to dismantle this wreck, retrieve the victims, and reassemble it. Just a guess. Hell of a stench, had they not....... this is borderline revolting. Imagine this scenario before the clean-up. No....don't.

Just to play devil's advocate:
The motorcycle rider easily could have fallen off before impact, or been flung over the roof of the car. The driver-side door is completely gone, so it's quite conceivable the driver of the car was thrown free as well. I'm sure they both died, but not necessarily inside the vehicle. |

They would have had to remove the motorcycle in order to remove the passenger (and the rider) because the passenger would either be under it or in the back seat between what is left of the passenger door and what is left of the front of the motorcycle. They may have removed the cycle and then replaced it after cleaning. There are companies that exist that specialize in the cleanup of bio materials. They find themselves on the scene of murders and acccidents such as this. When the dude accross the street from us killed himself in his house (then sat there for almost two weeks before anyone reported him missing), one of these companies showed up with a collection of chemicals designed to breakdown biomaterials such as blood and other oozey bodily fluids.

warning: graphic description.
Having seen the results of a very high-speed collision in the early 90s, my guess is that the damage to the victims was severe enough to allow cleaning of the interior with a hose. It's basically the same thing that happens to a bug on your windshield. There are a few larger pieces, but the majority is reduced to red jelly. The incident I'm referring to was a head-on collision between a drunk driver going 100+ m.p.h. in a T-bird and a couple in a Nissan or some such. He hit the couple (and their dog) head on and pushed them back into a big oak tree. The engine block of the T-bird was in the front seat of the Nissan. The paramedics found the male victim, who was obliterated from the torso down. However, they didn't know there was a female victim until an hour or two later, when one of the cops saw a couple strands of long blond hair poking from the place where the dashboard had met the (back) seat. People should be more careful in their cars. You get a really false sense of security from things like seatbelts and doors and such. Your body isn't made for impact with things harder than you. |

On a website, somewhere in 'Netland, I recently saw some photos of the aftermath of a 150 mph collision of bike vs tree. Tree 1, Bike 0...
The rider was literally torn into *pieces*. The only thing that really held those pieces in any semblance of together were his clothes. Very nasty pics. In looking again at the carbike pics, I do think that the passengers in the front seats of the car were probably blown completely out of the vehicle, probably at such a velocity that their various parts had little chance to stick to anything. I would not have liked to have seen the drivers side pavement outside of that car afterward. It probably looked like a chunky paint balloon had hit and splashed away from the car.

Mrs. Dar worked in an ER admitting room during high-school. One night they brought in a motorcyclist who had been going too fast on a rainy night. You know how in cartoons Wily Coyote, for instance, runs into a cactus or something face-first with left arm and leg on one side, right arm and leg on the other and face planted in the cactus? That's basically what this guy did with a telephone pole.
My wife was called in to help cut the guy's clothes off. She had to ask what the soccer-ball sized thing was in the guy's lap. The doctors told her it was the guy's scrotum that had swelled up from the injury. In a way, I suppose it was merciful that the guy never came out of the coma.

You show me a guy with nuts big enough to noodle a fish that weighs more than he does and I'll show you a guy destined to live a short exciting life.
