Tragedy in Paradise
Motorcycle slams into water
truck on Rickenbacker Causeway
The speed limit on this strech of road
is 45 mph. Some think of it as a suggested minimum speed.
The City of Miami Homicide investigators
vehicle in the background is a hint that the driver of this motorcycle
did not walk away. Yes, traffic
going off of Key Biscayne has been awful and it seems that drivers take
on
a 'race' mentality. We did not witness
what happened before this picture was taken yet it is self explanatory.
The water truck, in the passing lane may
have been watering the plants on the median or who knows besides
the witnesses? Maybe the driver
was just being a typical Miami driver and poking along at a snails pace
in
the passing lane. One thing is for
certain and that is that the motorcycle hit the truck hard and that the
truck
bumper hit the rider hard. This
is a very sad reality and unfortunately the second accident where there
was
a senseless loss of life on or around
Key Biscayne in the last few days. The other involved a scooter running
a red light in the middle of Key Biscayne
in broad daylight. There was even a Police Officer yelling at him
to stop.

and into the Oasis Fence? Only egos were hurt. Click
