This morning a biker has died in huddersfield

The link;

https://www.examiner.co.uk/news/local-west-yorkshire-news/2013/07/02/motorcyclist-dies-after-huddersfield-ring-road-smash-86081-33556394/

Eye whiteness (me) break down;

A car cut up the biker, the biker then over took the car and stopped in the middle of the road, attempting to stop the car. The car then drove around the biker and sped off. The biker then gave chase to the car driver but in doing so crashed into a wall less that 20 yards later.

After suffering head injuries, the biker later died in hospital.

Keep your cool on the roads guys, and girls. It's not worth it!

This was out of my vision as it moved further down the road, it was not clear as to whether the biker lost control or if the car caused the crash.

I do agree, this could have been avoided at many stages of this incident.

A very sad ending to what could possibly have been shrugged off. I hope the newspapers gather and release more info about this.

You might want to unpublish this until the legalities have been sorted out.
