I saw the tarp spread to cover… then I saw an arm sticking out and realized it was a body. Nearby the motorcycle and an auto with front-end damage.
Someone in Tucson was about to receive the call.
Tucson is a motorcycle town. Sunny year round.
2022, 24 motorcyclist died
2023, 34 motorcyclist died.
2024, ???
Common causes alcohol, immovable objects, lack of awareness, lane splitting, low visibility, and speeding, and rush hour.
97% of fatalities occurred in clear/sunny weather.
I rode a motorcycle for years; I loved it.
But motorcycles are quick, often unpredictable, vulnerable, and invisible.
Please be safe.
