A petrifying video from a motorcyclist stopped at a traffic light in Malibu, California showed footage of a pick-up truck flying into him after being slammed into by a black SUV.
The horrifying crash took place on November 14 and was a fatal incident for the driver of the black 2017 Lexus NC - a stolen car, according to the Los Angeles County police.
In the clip, the unidentified motorcyclist, who survived the crash, calmly waits to make a left turn off of the busy Pacific Coast Highway in southern California

Amen
I retired after a tourist from Alabama made an illegal left turn on red in Wash DC, and I ate his front driver side panel.
He had a cell phone glued to his face.
And in New Hampshire, riders who don’t wear helmets are called brain donors.
Better him than the innocent parties.
Too many times the perp survives and others are killed.
And that is a LOT of them.
I got hit in the face with a bird once going about 60. Glad it was only a sparrow.
Only a few days ago I read an article about flying cars coming soon to a city near you.
Flying trucks would be much more hazardous to Earthbound vehicles.
Yeah, PCH through there is scary.
I did a hard stop for a red light there once followed by some dumb bitch slamming to a stop to the right of me where there was no lane.
I can only guess the bitch was following me too close and had to veer around me.
That and further north towrd Mugu rock where there was sections of two lanes that narrowed to one. Another dumb bitch (I could see here face) just kept coming on the wrong side of the raod after the lane had ended. Narrowly missed a head on.
Worst I had was a yellow jacket flying down the neck of my riding suit. It got me three times before I squashed it.
I know you can see the truck bed, but that ladder scares me the most.
Don’t care
Pacific Coast Highway near Corral Canyon Road in Malibu is where the former Bruce Jenner was in a 4-car smack pile that killed a woman in 2015, before he became Caitlyn. That's what — a mile or two east of the OP crash?
I was about to post the same thing..
Had a yellowjacket go down my shirt when I was going on leave from Colorado to Texas (on a motorcycle), and it was hard to keep control until I stopped to get it out.
Should have been wearing his brown pants.🤪
Why so negative, Sir, if you don’t mind me asking.
I used to live in Malibu, just a short distance from Kanan-Dume, which was the N alernative to Malibu Canyon to go over the hill to the Ventura Fwy.
It is pretty steep at the end to PCH. There used to be a runaway truch catch at the end but it looks like they removed it.
Then why are you even on this tread
One day when I was heading into work, I looked up at my visor (full face helmet) and wondered “ How is that spider staying on at this speed?” :)
… and I’m glad the felon who caused this lost his life. Sometimes life is fair.
