A fiery crash and a lesson in perspective
Returning home from Detroit late Saturday night on westbound I-96, Sharon and I were stopped in traffic and I was grumbling about the inconvenience.
The next morning I learned that that same back-up had caused a multiple-fatality crash. A semi truck barreled into the stopped traffic, killing four people and injuring 17 others.
We figured that we avoided disaster by about 20 minutes.
Then Sharon saw a Facebook post by a neighbor who was also on I-96 Saturday night. She was less fortunate than us, but more fortunate than others. It said in part:
“My dad and I were two of the lucky 17 who were transported to the hospital yesterday. We were lucky because we didn’t lose our lives ….
“We saw the traffic stop and at least 5 more cars line up behind us before a semi-truck plowed into the cars behind us at 70 mph, rammed them into the rear end of my car, then struck us on the driver side before hitting a guardrail and exploding into flames.
“We were able to get out of the car with just a few bumps and watched as the fire grew to engulf my car and at least 10 others in flames within 20 minutes.
“I am posting this for a few reasons:
“So people know we are okay. We experienced trauma I never thought I’d experience, but survived.
“To emphasize the importance of seatbelts. I’m certain we would both be in much worse shape if we hadn’t been wearing ours.
“To emphasize the importance of keeping your eyes on the road. I do not know what caused the semi-truck driver to drive directly into our vehicles, but have witnessed plenty of other accidents caused by cellphone usage.
“To remind everyone that we are all humans who need help and compassion. I witnessed people from diverse ages, races, and genders work together to help each other. I do not know the political stances of any of the people I encountered. In that moment, we were all just people helping each other because it was the right thing to do.”

Powers and Abilities
Aviation: Hal Jordan is a natural and highly skilled pilot, able to fly a wide variety of planes and jets due to his job as a test pilot for Ferris Air.
Amateur Martial Artist: Hal was trained in martial arts during his days in the Justice League. Though he isn’t particularly skilled, he can defend himself without using his ring.
Indomitable Will: Hal is incredibly willful, which made him a candidate to be a Green Lantern. He is highly resistant to mind manipulation and control, though he isn’t completely immune.
Equipment
Spectre Enchantment (formerly): Hal was once possessed by the Spectre, God’s Vengeance. This gave Hal powerful abilities to strike vengeance on sinners. Although, Hal attempted to turn the power into acts of Redemption on sinners.
Immortality: The Spectre makes its host immortal, they cannot be killed by conventional means. Even most technology and magic cannot kill them.

Reality Alteration: The Spectre can change reality itself on a whim, enabling it to punish people appropriately.
Nigh-Omniscience: The Spectre is always aware of what is transpiring in the Universe, enabling it to know if it is needed.
Divine Law: The Spectre is bound by the Laws set by God and Heaven. The Spectre is bound and limited by God if it needs to be. This can also extend to those who carry God’s Word.
Weakness to the Spear of Destiny: The Spectre is weak to the Spear of Destiny, due to it being used to kill Jesus, God’s Forgiveness.
Green Lantern Ring (Pre-Ion) (formerly): The User has the ability to overcome great fear. This has earned them a Green Lantern Ring:
Green Energy Constructs: Users of a Green Lantern Ring can create energy constructs by willing them into existence. The User’s constructs are influenced by the User’s personality and mental state, an artistic User will have more stylized constructs while a soldier would have more militaristic constructs. Constructs are limited by the willpower and imagination of the User. Constructs can be manipulated to allow certain people or objects to pass through them, become transparent or opaque, or radiate certain wavelengths like Kryptonite. 
Kryptonite Generation: Green Lanterns can have their constructs generate Kryptonite if they know the proper wavelength.
Force Field Generation: A Green Lantern Ring can generate a force field around the User to protect them from harmful environments.
Energy Blasts: A Green Lantern Ring can fire blasts of energy. The energy are typically lasers or plasma in nature. The Energy blasts can be attuned to different wavelengths.
Phasing: A User can phasing through objects they normally cannot pass through, this takes considerable effort and energy from the Ring’s battery.
Universal Translator: Green Lantern Rings will automatically translate spoken word into language the User can understand and translate the words of the User.
Energy Absorption: The Green Lantern Ring can absorb a variety of energies; from technological, magical and alien.
Scanning/Playback: The Green Lantern Ring can scan the environment in a variety of ways and playback recent events as energy constructs.
Wormhole Generation: The Green Lantern Ring can allow the User to enter hyperspace to travel great distances in little time, this takes concentration to maintain the wormhole and emerge unscathed. If multiple Users use the same wormhole it becomes easier to maintain.
Limited Cellular Regeneration: The Green Lantern Ring will automatically attempt to heal it’s User if they are damaged. However, it can only do so much.
Pocket Dimension: Green Lanterns can access a pocket dimension inside their rings to store items. Living beings cannot be stored here.
Yellow Impurity: Users of this Green Lantern Ring cannot affect the color yellow, save for dire circumstances where their will is strong enough.
Recharge Protocol: A requirement of this Green Lantern Ring is charging it every planetary rotation. On Earth, this means charging it once every 24 hours.
Earth-96 Story
Hal Jordan. He is considered by most to be THE Green Lantern. Mostly because whenever there’s a new Green Lantern thing, it’s more than likely Hal taking the lead role. Granted, it’s not farfetched. Hal is the one who introduced us to the Green Lantern Corps, he is the one who helped founded the Justice League with Flash, Aquaman, Martian Manhunter, Wonder Woman and Black Canary (and maybe Batman and Superman too. Retcons are weird).
In MY OPINION, Hal is kinda oversaturated. And too cocky nowadays. At least for a main character. I will admit, him descending into madness and becoming a supervillain was a nice change of pace. Better than completely killing him off for a year and then reviving him. This is what I want to focus on for Earth-96. 
Rather than having the blame shifted from Hal because of a retcon saying Parallax possessed (which doesn’t really make sense if you think about it), Hal is definitely the one who came up with and attempted the Zero Hour. Now, this doesn’t mean he can’t have a redemption arc, that’s kinda what Final Night and him bonding with the Spectre was for. 
Now, you may be wondering, ‘why do you think Parallax possessing Hal doesn’t make sense?’ The reason I think that is because it’s not consistent with how we’ve seen the Emotional Entities use hosts. Yes, Parallax has possessed Kyle during the Sinestro Corps War and Ganthet in Green Lantern: Rebirth, but Sinestro was Parallax’s host for a time and still could control his actions. Why can’t Hal? It makes more sense if Parallax simply influenced Hal, whispered in his ear about what to do and how do things. Like remaking the Universe?
Parallax would remain bound to Hal even in death, having latched onto his very soul. This would forbid Hal from entering any afterlife, he would be stuck in Limbo until he is needed to be the Spectre’s new host. This would allow him for a redemption arc as the Spectre would attempt to purge Parallax from Hal’s soul. After Parallax is sealed back in the Green Lantern Central Power Battery on Oa, the Spectre’s job is done and he leaves. Hal would get a moment to say good-bye to his friends and loved ones before going to the afterlife, due to my ‘Characters Stay Dead, Mostly’ rule.

About Hate Speech...
As You all know Tumblr is not a place for the faint of the heart, as every opinion You share can, and probably would get some kind of hateful, harmful comment. And as many of us here, I accepted it as a price for freedom of speech, since everyone is entitled to his or her opinion, regardless of how dumb, angry or hate-filled it may be.
At least until I saw how hate speech can spill over to the real life.
But, some context is needed, since I doubt people outside of Poland would know about this. 
Not to mention the fact, that political situation in Poland is now such a cluster#uck, that even living here I sometimes have problems with grasping what the hell is happening.
So, prepare for a very uncoordinated, and fragmented rant...
For the last few years political climate in Poland had been slowly becoming more and more toxic, to a degree that leader of the ruling party is calling people not supporting him "worse sort of Poles" as well as "traitors", "communists and thieves" and other nice things like that.
Tumblr media
Sure it could get nasty before, with members of two biggest political parties in Poland, right-wing Prawo i Sprawiedliwość (Law & Justice) and centre-right Platforma Obywatelska (Civic Platform) were taking verbal shots at each other, but not to such a degree, and not with such venom.
It all went downhill in 2010 with Polish Air Force Tu-154 crash in Smolensk, which took the lives of 96 people, including President of Poland Lech Kaczyński and his wife Maria, as well as the former President of Poland in exile Ryszard Kaczorowski, high-ranked military officers, president of the National Bank of Poland, and prominent politicians from Law & Justice Party.
Tumblr media
Which was a huge tragedy for everyone in Poland, regardless of their political sympathies, but since Chairman of the Law and Justice Party, Jarosław Kaczyński was president's twin brother, and took it very personally, supporting multiple conspiracy theories claiming that the crash was a political assassination ordered by Russia and / or his chief political adversary former prime minister of Poland and the President of the European Council, Donald Tusk.
Tumblr media
Since 2015, when Law & Justice had won parliamentary elections "assassination theory" had became an official explanation of the Smolensk Crash, with special Parliamentary Committee of Investigation being created with the sole goal of proving it, even though despite their huge funds, and broad prerogatives they hadn't been able to find a shred of evidence pointing to the assassination.
Some political scientists even call it "Smolensk Religion" since it has markings of a cult, with deifying the "martyred" president, and vilifying Donald Tusk and his supporters as pure evil, with instances verbal and physical violence against "heretics", and promotion of an idea that if a person does not believe in assassination, then he or she is automatically a traitor and/or Russian agent. 
Tumblr media
Banner reads: “Before President was murdered in Smolensk, he was betrayed in Poland”
Thus, we got to the situation, where hate speech and outright death threats to the members of the opposition were dismissed as being of "no consequence", while any form of criticism against Our Glorious Righteous and Catholic Government is a serious offence that can end with person being prosecuted and dumped into jail.
Tumblr media
Above: Right-wing activists “hanging” portraits of liberal politicians as “traitors”, and “fake Poles”.
I know it sounds dramatic and kinda dystopian, but let me give You an example.
Ever since Law & Justice gained power, they had been trying to overturn judicial system and make it subservient to the government, by claiming that judges are "elite class" that should be purged and replaced with "proper patriots" that would understand that "national interest" is more important than "some laws".
Their actions include government sponsored hate campaigns against judges (!), and creating bills that make removing them a lot easier, even if said bills are non-constitutional.
This led to many protests from the people, and wearing t-shirts with the words "Constitution" printed on them became a rather popular way of reminding the government, that they are breaking the laws. 
Tumblr media
So, what Infallible Polish Government had done with that fact?
Well, they deemed such t-shirts and other accessories bearing the word "Constitution" to be a... hate speech, and wearing them in public can lead to being accused of... public disturbance. Yes, it is real...
And now, let’s get into crux of the matter.
In my country we have a something called Wielka Orkiestra Świątecznej Pomocy a.k.a WOŚP, roughly translated into "The Great Orchestra of Christmas Charity", which is the biggest, and most recognizable non-governmental, non-profit, charity organization in Poland.
Tumblr media
It was created in 1993 by a journalist, musician, tv-personality and a radio host Jerzy Owsiak, with a goal of "Protecting Health and Saving Children's Lives by Providing Medical Equipment to Public Hospitals", as during that time public hospitals were dramatically underfunded, and many of them lacked the funds to buy, or repair their basic, life-saving equipment, following the fall of communism.
Tumblr media
The first "Grand Finale" or a day-long public fundraiser accompanied by various events such as concerts, sporting competitions etc,  turned out to be a great success, enabling the GOCC to fund equipment for several pediatric hospitals, so it was continued every year for the last 24 years, earning 297,214,654.37 USD, becoming a cherished national tradition, and expanding to every place in the world that has even the tiniest polish community.
Tumblr media
Along with the GOCC's Grand Finales Owsiak also created Pol'and'Rock Festival (Formerly known as "Woodstock Festival Poland"),  a free rock festival dubbed "the biggest open-air festival in Europe", as a way of thanking all the volunteers for all their hard work in making their fundraiser work, which also grew to become a cherished annual tradition.
Tumblr media
Unfortunately, when there's success, there's jealousy and hatred. And The Great Orchestra is not an exception.
You see, despite being an icon of charity Jerzy Owsiak had always been quite controversial, as he has very liberal worldview, for example endorsing religious tolerance, LGBT rights, or bringing up controversial topics like abortion, or immigration in public media, making him Public Enemy #01 for the Far Right as a whole.
Additionally since Owsiak is a loud supporter for the separation of Church and State, quite a few influential clergymen in Poland try to paint him as a hedonistic, amoral heretic, who "steals money that should've been donated for The Church".
Which wouldn't be that much of a problem, even if Poland is predominantly a Catholic country... if not for the fact that our government is a Far Right nightmare I mentioned above, and they had done everything in their power to bring him down, for example pretending that GOCC does not exist on public TV, painting Owsiak as a greedy fraud, and creating laws deliberately targeting his initiatives.
Still, despite all that obstacles, and outright hatred from government's supporters, this year we had another Grand Finale in several big cities, raising over 90,000,000 PLN for hospitals, beating the last year's record, which should be the cause for celebration, and it was... until something happened that destroyed it all.
In Gdansk, The Great Orchestra was openly endorsed by it's long-time mayor, Paweł Adamowicz (Who had been re-elected for the last 21 years), so during the official finale of the fundraiser he was on the stage with several of his closest people, giving a impassioned speech about how people once again has shown that love and mercy win over hatred and spite...
Tumblr media
And then he was attacked by a man with a knife, who managed to stab him several times in the chest and stomach, also being able to grab a microphone about him being "Agent of Justice", claiming that he was "A victim of previous government" and "made them pay" by killing the mayor.
He was quickly captured, but wounds he gave Adamowicz proven to be fatal, as he died in a hospital a day later, despite efforts by doctors, making him first victim of politically motivated murder in Poland since 1922.
And yet, despite that ruling party and it's supporters immediately rushed to blame... the opposition, for "creating the atmosphere of hate", blaming them in general, and Owsiak in particular for the crime, with some people even calling Adamowicz's murderer... a hero, and gathering money to "buy him the best lawyer".
Tumblr media
[Andrzej X] Fundraiser for a lawyer for the man with the knife is in progress.
[Rafał X] I’ll give my money for that.
[Andreas X] I wonder whom he (Mayor Adamowicz) would call for his last rites. Priest or an imam? (Adamowicz wanted refugees from Syria to be allowed to come to Poland, which led to much hate from Alt-Right)
[Wielki] I wonder if there is a GOCC logo on any doctor or equipment in place he is now???
[Józef X] As they say... Karma always returns.
Tumblr media
[Radosław X] Was it the same Adamowicz, who sold himself to Germans??...
[Henryka X] They (The opposition) would tell EU that PIS is at fault.
[Rafał X] It was fight between gangs controlling the city.
[Jarek X] The guy who had attacked him is a True Polish Hero.
[Klara X] Nothing to grieve here, neither him, not PO as a whole.
Apparently they hadn't noticed any fault on their own side, and are content with blaming the others, and making everything work as it did before. And I dread to see what would happen next, since we already crossed that one line...
So yeah, now I see that “it’s only words, they don’t hurt anyone” argument is a bullshit.

Nader Rabie | Nhan  | Going After a Motorbike Accident Claim
You can ride more secure by adhering to these fast tips on motorbike safety and security:
  1. Always assume that you as well as your bike are totally undetectable to various other vehicle drivers.
  2. Leave lots of room in front and also back and also sideways from all various other vehicles.
  3. Beware of motorists turning left in front of you at crossways.
  4. Never consume alcohol or take medicines as well as try to ride a motorcycle.
Nader Rabie
5. Avoid riding during the night, especially late Saturday evening as well as very early Sunday when intoxicated vehicle drivers might get on the road.
  6. Be careful of taking curves that you can't see about. A parked truck or a patch of sand may be awaiting you.
  7. Do not attempt to 'get back at' with one more motorcyclist or driver by succumbing to road rage.
  8. If a person is tailgating you, either quicken to open up more area or pull over and also let them pass.
  9. Take a motorcycle safety and security course to learn what to try to find to prevent mishaps.
  10. Use safety clothes and a headgear.
  There is no New york city No-Fault insurance coverage offered to motorbike motorcyclists. This implies that in case of injury in a motorbike accident, private medical insurance need to pay the bills. If the cyclist wins a legal action, these bills should usually be paid back to the medical insurance carrier. If there is no health insurance offered, the issue of clinical expenses and also spending for treatment comes to be complex, indeed. Consult an experienced accident and also accident attorney.
Nhan Nguyen
As a legal representative and also cyclist who has held a motorcycle permit for many years, I have some certain ideas on this topic. But I would certainly like you to "stuff down" some stats about bike safety and security, which connect to crashes and also injuries, and also which I locate interesting:
  1. Approximately 3/4 of bike mishaps entail accident with one more lorry; usually a traveler car.
  2. Around 1/4 of bike mishaps are single automobile crashes involving the motorcycle colliding with the street or some repaired item in the setting.
  3. Car failure accounts for less than 3% of motorcycle accidents, and most of those are solitary car accidents where control is shed because of a slit flat.
  4. In solitary car accidents, motorcycle rider error exists as the cause about 2/3 of the time, with the regular error being a slideout as well as fall as a result of overbraking, or running broad on a contour because of excess rate or under-cornering.
  5. Road flaws (pavement ridges, gaps, etc.) are the crash cause in 2% of accidents; animal participation triggers 1% of mishaps.
  6. In numerous lorry mishaps, the motorist of the other automobile goes against the motorbike right of way and creates the accident 2/3 of the time.
  7. Drivers failure to identify motorbikes in traffice is the main resource of motorcycle collisions. The chauffeur of the other automobile involved in crash with the motorcycle does not see the motorbike before the crash, or does not see the motorbike till too late to stay clear of the accident.
  8. Purposeful hostile action by a motorist versus a motorcycle motorcyclist is an uncommon crash cause.
  9. One of the most frequent crash type is the motorbike proceeding straight as well as the vehicle making a left turn in front of the oncoming motorbike.
  10. Crossways are one of the most likely area for the motorcycle accident, with the other vehicle violating the motorcycle right of way, and frequently breaking traffic controls.
  11. Climate is not a consider 98% of motorcycle accidents.
  12. Many motorbike crashes entail a short journey related to purchasing, tasks, pals, entertainment or leisure, and also the accident is most likely to occur close to the place the trip started.
  13. The sight of the motorbike or other automobile associated with a mishap is restricted by glow or blocked by various other cars in almost 2 of multiple automobile crashes.
  14. Visibility of the motorbike is a vital factor in multiple automobile accidents, as well as crashes are considerably minimized by the use motorbike headlamps (on in daylight) and the using of high visibility yellow, orange or bright red jackets.
  15. Gas system leaks and also spills are present after 62% of motorcycle collisions. This implies that there is usually a fire danger.
  16. Considerably overrepresented in accidents are bike cyclists in between the ages of 16 and 24; bike motorcyclists in between the ages of 30 as well as 50 are substantially underrepresented. Although most of accident-involved bike cyclists are male (96%), women motorcycles motorcyclists are considerably overrepresented in mishaps.
  17. Motorbike motorcyclists involved in mishaps are essentially without training; 92% are self-taught or learned from friend or family. Bike cyclist training experience reduces mishap participation and lowers injury in case of mishaps.
  18. Practically 1/2 of fatal accidents show alcohol involvement.
  19. Motorbike riders in those crashes have difficulty avoiding the accident. A lot of cyclists overbrake and skid the rear wheel, as well as underbrake the front wheel, considerably minimizing the capability to slow down and also prevent the accident. In the presence of alcohol, the capacity to countersteer and also swerve are practically missing.
  20. The normal bike mishap enables the motorcyclist just less than 2 secs to avoid the collision.
  21. Motorbike modifications such as those associated with the semi-chopper or cafe racer are absolutely overrepresented in mishaps.
  22. The likelihood of injury is very high in bike crashes - 98% of multiple vehicle collisions as well as 96% of single car crashes cause some sort of injury to the bike biker; 45% cause greater than a minor injury.
  23. Fifty percent of the injuries to motorbike motorcyclists are to the ankle-foot, reduced leg, knee, and also thigh-upper leg.
  24. Accident bars are not an effective injury countermeasure; the reduction of injury to the ankle-foot is balanced by increase of injury to the thigh-upper leg, knee, as well as reduced leg.
  25. Making use of heavy boots, coat, handwear covers, and so on, is effective in avoiding or reducing abrasions as well as lacerations, which are regular yet seldom extreme injuries.
  26. Rate, alcohol participation and also motorbike dimension increade the injury intensity.
  27. Seventy-three percent of accident-involved bike riders use no eye protection, and also it is most likely that the wind on their vulnerable eyes contributes to disability of vision which delays hazard discovery.

Nader Rabie | Nhan Nguyen | Pursuing a Motorcycle Accident Claim
You can ride more secure by complying with these fast suggestions on motorcycle safety:
  1. Always assume that you and also your bike are totally invisible to various other chauffeurs.
  2. Leave a lot of area ahead as well as back and to the sides from all other lorries.
  3. Be cautious of motorists transforming left in front of you at junctions.
  4. Never ever consume alcohol or take medicines and also attempt to ride a bike.
  5. Prevent riding during the night, specifically late Saturday night as well as early Sunday when intoxicated chauffeurs might get on the roadway.
  6. Beware of taking curves that you can not see about. A parked vehicle or a patch of sand may be awaiting you.
  7. Do not attempt to 'get even' with an additional cyclist or motorist by succumbing to roadway rage.
  8. If a person is tailgating you, either speed up to open more space or pull over as well as allow them pass.
  9. Take a motorcycle safety and security course to learn what to search for to avoid accidents.
Nader Rabie
10. Wear protective garments and a headgear.
  There is no New york city No-Fault insurance offered to motorcycle cyclists. This means that in case of injury in a motorcycle accident, personal health insurance need to pay the bills. If the biker wins a lawsuit, these expenses should typically be repaid to the health insurance carrier. If there is no health insurance available, the problem of medical expenses and also paying for treatment comes to be challenging, indeed. Consult an experienced mishap and injury lawyer.
  As a lawyer and also cyclist that has actually held a bike permit for several years, I have some certain thoughts on this subject. Yet I would certainly like you to "stuff down" some stats regarding motorbike safety, which relate to accidents as well as injuries, as well as which I find interesting:
  1. About 3/4 of motorbike mishaps entail collision with an additional automobile; frequently a passenger automobile.
  2. Around 1/4 of motorcycle mishaps are solitary lorry accidents entailing the motorcycle ramming the road or some repaired item in the environment.
  3. Vehicle failing represent much less than 3% of motorcycle accidents, as well as the majority of those are solitary automobile crashes where control is lost due to a puncture flat.
  4. In solitary automobile mishaps, motorbike biker error exists as the cause regarding 2/3 of the time, with the normal mistake being a slideout and also loss due to overbraking, or running wide on a contour due to excess speed or under-cornering.
  5. Road flaws (sidewalk ridges, craters, and so on) are the accident reason in 2% of crashes; pet participation causes 1% of crashes.
  6. In multiple automobile mishaps, the chauffeur of the various other vehicle violates the motorbike right-of-way and triggers the crash 2/3 of the moment.
  7. Drivers inability to acknowledge motorcycles in traffice is the major source of motorbike collisions. The driver of the other car associated with collision with the motorcycle does not see the bike prior to the accident, or does not see the motorcycle until far too late to stay clear of the accident.
  8. Purposeful aggressive activity by a motorist against a motorcycle rider is an uncommon crash cause.
  9. The most constant crash type is the motorbike case straight and the vehicle making a left turn in front of the oncoming motorcycle.
  10. Intersections are the most likely area for the motorbike crash, with the other vehicle going against the motorcycle right of way, and typically violating web traffic controls.
  11. Weather condition is not a factor in 98% of motorbike crashes.
  12. Many motorcycle accidents include a brief journey associated with shopping, errands, buddies, entertainment or recreation, and also the accident is likely to occur near the place the trip started.
  13. The sight of the motorbike or various other automobile associated with a crash is restricted by glow or blocked by various other cars in virtually 2 of several lorry mishaps.
  14. Visibility of the bike is a critical factor in several vehicle crashes, and also accidents are substantially reduced by the use bike headlamps (on in daytime) as well as the using of high presence yellow, orange or bright red coats.
  15. Gas system leakages and spills exist after 62% of motorcycle crashes. This means that there is generally a fire risk.
  16. Dramatically overrepresented in mishaps are bike bikers in between the ages of 16 and also 24; bike cyclists in between the ages of 30 as well as 50 are considerably underrepresented. Although the majority of accident-involved motorcycle riders are male (96%), women bikes bikers are substantially overrepresented in mishaps.
  17. Motorcycle bikers involved in mishaps are basically without training; 92% are self-taught or learned from friend or family. Motorbike biker training experience lowers mishap participation as well as minimizes injury in case of mishaps.
  18. Practically 1/2 of fatal accidents show alcohol involvement.
  19. Motorcycle motorcyclists in those crashes have problem preventing the accident. A lot of cyclists overbrake and also skid the rear wheel, as well as underbrake the front wheel, significantly minimizing the capability to reduce as well as prevent the mishap. In the existence of alcohol, the capacity to countersteer and also swerve are practically absent.
  20. The typical bike crash allows the motorcyclist simply much less than 2 secs to stay clear of the collision.
  21. Motorcycle alterations such as those related to the semi-chopper or coffee shop racer are absolutely overrepresented in crashes.
  22. The chance of injury is extremely high in bike crashes - 98% of several car crashes and 96% of single lorry accidents lead to some kind of injury to the bike cyclist; 45% lead to greater than a small injury.
  23. Fifty percent of the injuries to motorcycle cyclists are to the ankle-foot, reduced leg, knee, and also thigh-upper leg.
  24. Collision bars are not a reliable injury countermeasure; the reduction of injury to the ankle-foot is balanced by increase of injury to the thigh-upper leg, knee, as well as reduced leg.
  25. Using heavy boots, coat, gloves, and so on, is effective in preventing or decreasing abrasions as well as lacerations, which are frequent but rarely extreme injuries.
  26. Speed, alcohol participation and motorcycle size increade the injury severity.
Nhan Nguyen
27. Seventy-three percent of accident-involved motorbike bikers utilize no eye protection, and it is likely that the wind on their unsafe eyes contributes to disability of vision which postpones hazard detection.
  28. Roughly 50% of the motorbike riders in web traffic use helmet but only 40% wear helmets at the time of their mishap.
  29. Volunteer helmet use by accident-involved bike bikers was cheapest for untrained, ignorant, young bike cyclists on hot days as well as short trips.
  30. One of the most harmful injuries to motorbike crash sufferers are injuries to the chest as well as head.
  31. Using the safety helmet is the single important factor in the prevention or decrease of head injury.
  32. Safety helmet use does not lower the riders capacity to listen to or see, as well as causes no fatigue or loss of focus; no component of mishap causation is related to helmet use.
  33. Helmeted riders as well as travelers showed dramatically reduced head and neck injury for all types of injury, in all degrees of injury extent.
  34. The raised protection of the full face insurance coverage helmet raises defense, as well as significantly decreases face injuries.
  35. There is no increase in neck injury by putting on a safety helmet; helmeted cyclists have less neck injuries than unhelmeted riders.
