And his going 70 was okay?

[silverleaf]

nope, he is dead- nothing is OK about that

Laying the bike down at 70MPH is a lot more dramatic and lifethreatening than laying it down at 35MPH, depending on what you slide under and hit

But want to bet the pedestrian would have jaywalked and killed them both, whatever speed he was doing?

My BIL was probably doing less than 30mph when he died
