Wow, this thread seems to be going the wrong direction!

Madura, sad, amazing story, and totally believable in my eyes. I have three sons so I can tell you without a doubt that if they were on the bike with me and there is anything I could do to protect them in a crash, I would do it as reaction and without a second thought for myself.

Have none of you ever been in a car and had to slam on the brakes and instead of keeping both hands on the wheel you instinctively reach one hand over to hold the passenger back...even though the seatbelt is going to anyway?

I'm not an admin here anymore, I gave up those duties a long time ago but let's take a minute to look at the full story and think about what you would be willing to do to protect your kids before we go hollering BS and calling names huh?
