I will stand corrected if the investigation returns a different verdict, but it doesn't sound like the operator was laughing at the caller, at least to me. There's chatter and laughter in the background and that seems to be a plausible explanation as to what happened.

Agreed. :-)

Meh, not a Honda - no VTEC. Duh.

I'm going to wager that they don't have good insurance - probably just minimums, which will barely (if at all) cover the Lambo. And then there's the diminished value claim. He/she is going to have their hands full for a while.

I can see how this could happen, if you're really lost and if it's really dark. If they crossed Marina Rd. going 60 or 65, and hit the water at about that speed, then impact would have probably disabled them, since it's unlikely they were wearing seat belts.

They would have a good idea because of the VIN and/or license plate #'s.

I thought Humanity had evolved beyond this. It's a grim picture, to study ourselves from the view point of literature, entertainment and laws.

Why, yes! Yes there is. And it was turned into an episode on CSI.

You just need to understand what he's doing. New math, dude, new math.

That's just awesome.

Man, if I could get away with just 'several times a week,' I'd be happy man.

But if we treated all other news agencies like we treat Fox, then it wouldn't be fair, now would it? ;-)

I like magnets. But why is the bit on the right more rectangular than the bit on the left?

Me neither. Airline pilots carry on conversations with people on a radio, even during emergencies, and they're not distracted.

I actually tell them something similar too. When the bike leans over, the normal, uninitiated reaction is to think you're going to fall off, hence the tendency to lean the other way. I tell them to just say with the bike, upright. I can handle it from there. You can lean all day, drag yourself off one side, but if

Working against a passenger that's leaning against the direction of the bike can be difficult, but not impossible. It's actually more disconcerting than anything, especially when you get the bike under control and the passenger begins to work with you at about the same time. Then you've got to counter act against

Why did you play the race card? Race only matters when race matters.

Wowzers. As a biker, I gotta say "yep: you're doing it wrong." May have been a lot of fun, but doing it wrong.

Vinegar works great too, but it's very easy to use too much. Back in the 80's, I was doing this for a living. A gallon or two of water and a table spoon (or so) of vinegar is all it took. You'll know you've used too much vinegar if you get streaks.
