    Just a bit of info for anyone travelling northbound. N11 is closed until 4pm due to a serious accident involving a motorbike and a car. Traffic is at a standstill around the area.
    Hopefully no one has been seriously hurt.

    Unfortunately, the motorcyclist was seriously injured.

    Anyone have an update? I was there 30 minutes previously. I fly up that road every day, sometimes you need something like this to tell you to slow down.

    Criminals get less of a punishment than he did.

    I don't believe there are many people out there that deserve to be killed or have their lives ruined through serious injury.

    Hopefully he will recover from the injuries but if it was wreckless driving he was doing hopefully that will teach him a lesson. Unfortunately its people who use the public roads as a racetrack that give bikers a bad rep. You have a link to the video or is it private? Just out of curiosity.

    If i can get it i will deffo put it up...and i guarantee NO ONE will say that he is/was a great pilot.....TBH it looks like a bike that was stolen..one part shows him mount the pavement to avoid a red light which he goes straight through, and goes down Bray main street at, i'd say at least 100 kph, he broke every red light...this was evening time , cars, people going about their business..sickening..

    Did anyone else on here see it ..???

    There quite literally are not enough words in the dictionary to describe how utterly careless and bloody selfish that driving is.

    He clearly doesnt care for himself or other roadusers and by roadusers you can include pedestrians , cyclists, cars van divers. People just 'living'

    Hes prepared to tear lives apart.


    What an absolute moron.

    It's his poor family that I feel sorry for, they must be going through hell.
    Thankfully he didn't hurt anybody else in last weeks crash.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,101 ✭✭✭Max Headroom


    I'd just like to post that i'm not 100% sure if this is the guy, its just what i've been told..so if its not this clown i apologise to the injured rider...just sayin..;)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 24,878 ✭✭✭✭arybvtcw0eolkf


    Holy sh*t.. I don't scare easily and have been known to be a stupid bastard at times but that displaying of riding on that clip is pure and utter f*cking madness.. Tbh, and I'd rarely say this about a biker but that guy deserves locking up.

    Absolute brain dead madness and a total disregard for the lives of everyone sharing the road with the prick..


  • Registered Users Posts: 453 ✭✭pclive


    Scary Madness!!

    Is there any way the Gardai can use this to prosecuted him for multiple counts of dangerous driving?

    Unlikely to prove who it was actually driving, even if you track the source of the upload.


  • Registered Users Posts: 23 devwa


    I'm not a saint, I tend to filter quite aggressively from time to time (or so I think) or drive above the posted speed limit but this is utter madness.

    As much sympathy I could have toward the family, I've none for a biker driving like this.
    Go on a bloody track !


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 24,644 ✭✭✭✭punisher5112


    It is a person who is trying to copy the Ghost rider in Germany.

    Can't remember but did the german one die?

    I have luckily very rarely seen that sort of riding here and glad because it is digusting.

    Riding like that through small towns/villages and running lights and riding on footpaths even where kids were outside Mc Ds in Bray.

    I feel bad for the truck driver and anyone else that had to witness his making.
    If this is the guy I don't wish him dead or anything but I do hope he never rides again.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 854 ✭✭✭dubscottie


    Sounds bad but I am glad he got was coming to him having watched that video. I was tarred with the same brush on my last bike because a few bellends liked to take the piss.

    I feel sorry for the family but its one less arse on our roads.

    He didn't die IIRC.. They were close to working out who he was so he "died" in an attempt to get the police to stop the chase..

    If it was a Rizla liveried GSXR then the clip was on the news or on the RTE site.

    Hope we see the crash video up soon........:P

    There was another lad (maybe the same one) that liked to hang onto trains over there going 186mph.. He "died" as well but the police still got him.

    When I say "died" people posted online that he was dead but was alive and well..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,003 ✭✭✭Zoo4m8

    Came on this accident.. The bike was blue, the levers on the bike in the video would match so maybe the same genius..too busy watching the traffic round me to get the make or model..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 24,644 ✭✭✭✭punisher5112


    I heard the rider died a few hours after the accident.

    Not sure if correct or not but someone else may know.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,101 ✭✭✭Max Headroom


    AFAIK the scum's still alive..............Terry Pratchett isnt..:mad:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,536 ✭✭✭Pataman


    Yep, he's alive. I heard he has a broken spine(and every other bone in his body).
    I also heard he is in a induced coma.
