A sad story but the last line really caught my attention. "The driver didn't appear to be intoxicated and wasn't immediately arrested pending further investigation, police said."
Arrested for what?
To: antidemoncrat
Not sure he needs to be worried about further punishment.

In general, avoiding San Bernardino sounds like a good plan.

Like the Nazi’s used to do in WWII. We started welding wire cutters to the front of Jeeps.

The driver of the Ford Taurus who hit the utility pole was not arrested or intoxicated they mean, rather than the motorcyclist.

This is a very poorly written article. I think the comment about the driver not being arrested was referencing the driver of the Taurus not the victim.

rider has been decapitated - wasn't immediately arrested pending further investigation
I believe the pending investigation will head the police in the right direction.

Arrested for what? Operating a motorcycle without a helmet?

No offense to anyone here on FR who rides a motorcycle, but I think you really have to be insane to operate any kind of motor vehicle that leaves you so exposed to the elements like that.
Every couple of years we have a fatality in my neck of the woods involving a motorcyclist hitting an animal. The usual culprits are deer, but a few years ago we had one involving a motorcycle hitting a wild turkey.

Losing his head while operating a motor vehicle?

A couple of years ago a guy down the road from me hit a strand of fence wire while he was tearing through a field on a snowy night on his snowmobile.
Same outcome as the subject of this article.

Austin Powers: Not the time to lose one’s head.
Vanessa Kensington: No.
Austin Powers: That’s not the way to get ahead in life.
Vanessa Kensington: No.
Austin Powers: It’s a shame he wasn’t more headstrong.
Vanessa Kensington: Hmm.
Austin Powers: He’ll never be the head of a major corporation.
Vanessa Kensington: Okay, that’ll do.
Austin Powers: Okay.

Someone should have called for a quick soccer match. But the ball gets to soft after a few kicks.

No offense to anyone here on FR who rides a motorcycle, None taken,
by NTSB statistics, one is 34x as likely to die per mi driven
on a motorcycle vs a passenger car
If one is not at peace with those statistics,
don't get on the bike
It's like any other high risk behavior
Oh yes, I'm a biker...

Not the first "decapitation" by downed power line........and doubt it will be the last.
Feel sorry for the family getting that kind of news about their loved one..........
