A friend of mine gave up motorcycles because he t-boned a car, the bike
essentially went through the car, killing the driver, paralyzing the
passenger and my friend landed in a bush. He was standing up before the
pieces were done scattering.

i also witnessed an occasion where a motorcyclist doing about 70 t-boned a
car and it took the "jaws of life" to get the occupants out of the car.
the motorcyclist flew over the car, slid about 100 feet and five minutes
later was sitting at the side of the road.
