He went straight into the river... I saw them at the scene with the body covered up after they fished him out of the river. Didn't look very good and the bike was no where to be seen

think buddy was speeding? I drive on that road everyday and can't see an accident happening there without speeding. I didn't watch the news so I have no idea what happened.

I heard about another bike accident on Saturday. This hands down is the winner of dumbest human alive.

From what I heard on CFCN, some woman was driving her car westbound on Glenmore, took the turnoff onto Crowchild, realized, she didn't want to go onto Crowchild, and get this........made a U-Turn and started driving back down the exit ramp!! Anyways, some biker hit her or rather she hit him. I don't think too seriously though since I haven't heard about it since. U-Turn on an off ramp! I'm speechless, this truly is a person too stupid to live! She beats out that other woman who backed up down that off ramp on Deerfoot last year for stupidest human alive!

i drove past that. How fuckin mental can you be? She shoud be dragged behind the new bike the rider gets when he recovers. I hope he is ok. There was nothing but the bike the car, police and fire trucks there with the road blocked off when I got there. Traffic was so backed up.

are you fucking serious?!?!? was this a couple days ago? I remember driving off the offramp from Crowchild to Glenmore East and the offramp from Glenmore to Crowchild got sealed off by ambulences and cop cars.. I don't remember if it was 2 or 3 days ago.. I probably saw that accident then..

I wish I were joking yet people of this stupidity live amongst us! They showed the plate of the lady's car on the news, I should have posted it it so we can all stay as far away from this walking time bomb.

That is by far the worst I've ever heard of any driver in Calgary.

That driver should NEVER be able to drive a vehicle ever again

A while ago I saw something similar on Deerfoot... some person was driving south on northbound deerfoot near the McKenzie/Douglasdale areas.... where do some of these people get their licences? out of cracker jack boxes? lol
