Motorcycle Builder Billy Lane Kills a Man

From what we've heard from our friends in the custom-bike world, Billy Lane's a good guy. But even good guys do dumb things that leave others dead. Lane pulled out over the double yellow to pass two cars and slammed headlong into a motorcycle ridden by park ranger Gerry Morelock. Dodge Ram versus motorcycle? You can guess the result It's the second wrong-lane incident for the Discovery Channel bike-building celeb — earlier this year Lane was busted for a DUI and scoffing at helmet laws after being caught in the opposite lane riding riding his bike sans skid-lid in North Carolina.
