I'm waiting for the picture of him sitting in traffic and either:
A) randomly falling out of the driver's seat onto the pavement.
or
B) The car randomly falling over and resting on the drivers door. #chevycamaro
@Scandinavian Flick: Swooning is a state of ecstasy or rapture. I couldn't swoon over a Camaro, a Jaguar, Brad Pitt.....but, just maybe....well, you know. #chevycamaro
Who the fuck cares. I hate this TMZ shit. If it's someone famous and they get hurt or cause injury to someone else, then maybe it's news but seriously someone dumping their bike (which happens to everyone who rides at one time or another) is not. I don't want to see Brad Pitt taking a dump or Hillary Duff getting a parking ticket on Jalopnik. Is there a filter for that? #carcrashes
@weatherman: Yeah...dumping a bike is embarrassing enough, but it happens all the time. Crappy luck that Brad had to deal with his getting caught on tape. The whole Hillary Duff getting a parking ticket was a bit weak as well. It's better than watching E News because at least it's car related, but still...that's pretty low on the car news totem pole I'd think. #carcrashes
So it starts with A Driver Runs Through It and quickly turns into The Curious Case of the Been-Jammin' Button. Due to Inglourious Caster, he finds himself Burned After Riding. Now the Lotion's Relievin' and he plans to Meet Shoei Black before doing this again.
Thankfully he wasn't driving a Se7en. Just saying. #carcrashes
For those of us video-disadvantaged at our workplaces, can someone please tell us what make/model of bike he was riding? I also can't see the helmet from the pic to know why it's being cited as another element upon which Mr. Pitt needs to improve.
I will say that they were accurate in Motorcycle Safety classes when they told us that most incidents happen in low-speed situations. I've laid my bike over exactly once - when trying to back out of a parking spot in a rolling/uneven parking surface. Things were fine rolling backwards. But when I went to give it gas and engage the throttle, I started to topple. And once the weight of the bike passes that certain angle, you've got pretty much no chance of catching it - especially when your feet aren't on level ground. I pounded the foot peg down and rode on my way - no real scratches to bear witness to my folly. #carcrashes
@Racin_G73 - dirt track legend (some day ... maybe): Other than one time I was sideswiped on the freeway (guy did a 2x lane change to make an exit) the worst injury I've erver suffered on a bike was when I pulled to the side of the road to check directions and put my fut down on some remnant gravel left over from the previous seasons snow/ice storm.
Made the mistake of trying to catch the bike before it completely hit pavement and wrenched my back and dislocated my shoulder. #carcrashes

Nice, as always, Ash. I woulda gone for "Meet Joe Blacktop", though.
No?
Fight with the Pavement Club?
