I was rear ended last fall by a yellow cavalier with a female driver, it was not her first accident. When the sheriff asked if she was texting, she said no and then deleted all her messages when he went back to his car.
Fuck i hate seeing this kind of stuff :(. all though Id love to ride a bike someday, my life is just too important to me to risk it. Even if your riding your bike responsibly and safe, bad shit will still happen to you. Ill never step foot on a bike. I love my cars and your much more protected and safe in one. RIP to the biker I feel for their family.
Bottom line, I’m not going to speculate a cause until they at least say how fast the bike was going.
But +1 to Maxwell. Same reason I don’t ride anymore.
RIP
I am no expert but that does look like a high speed crash.
^^^This is true
Speculation here, but like I said before, there is no way he was doing 35. The girl is still at fault, but if he was traveling at the speed limit, he’d probably still be around to tell the tale. RIP.
I disagree. The skank mobile is damaged mostly in crumple zones. The front tire is still on the bike. I think assuming an approximate speed of 37 at time of impact is very reasonable.
I guess it also depends of your definition of high speed. I hit a van (on purpose) at 15 MPH and that was enough to knock the wind out of me and cause bruising from the seat belt.

Oh, and here’s the said skank Alicia Misiak
Freek, I guess you’re right… i’m certainly no expert.
That fucking girls life is over. Shitty situation all around.
35 mph would be the equivalent of a 42 foot fall.
If you dropped a bike from a 42 foot height onto a sheet metal would expect the damage to be more or less? (You can see that the driver door bar is intact)
If you jump face first out of a 4 story building wearing a bike helmet onto a car how would you fair?
and yes i cheated: http://www.wallaceracing.com/free-fall-math.php
Ok, since you guys seem to be confident in your crystal balls, how fast was the bike going BEFORE impact? How long was it braking for before the crash?
Again, all speculation. Somebody died, a young girl’s life will never be the same. I’ll stand by my waiting for the accident investigation before blaming either side.
That is a dangerous area. I used to live right by Main and Youngs and I have been rear ended on my bike at a red light by someone not paying attention twice on Main St with some idiot looking down and letting go of the brake. That and everyone is in a hurry and will cut anyone off to get to where they need to go.
Sad to hear a biker lost their live due to another persons carelessness.
Sorry, my crystal balls only works for the shit in the future, you should have asked me yesterday.
Besides, I left no conclusive answer in my first post.
I know how fast it was going AFTER the accident if that counts!
Rider: Michael Graham, 30, Lockport
Driver: Alicia Misiak, 18, Cheektowaga
bike is 2001 suzuki and the rider was 20 not 30 according to buffalonew.
it looks like this bike i saw the other day, helmet is close too.
This fucking idiot kept swerving in and out of cars, lane splitting WITH CARS and doing wheelies RIGHT NEXT to cars.
He almost hit two people going down transit alone, and then got into the center lane of southwestern and hauled ass all the way down to milestrip and almost hit someone turning from 20a.
I sincerely hope this is the one who got killed, he fucking deserved it.
