Biker's 120km/h crash video
A gruesome video of a
motorcyclist hitting a car at 120km/h has been released by police to shock bikers
into slowing down.
The bike - doing more than twice the speed limit in
the 50km/h zone in Hamburg, Germany - ploughs into the side of a turning car
sending its rider flying through the air.
The biker somersaults and
slides more than 15 metres down the road before lying motionless in the
road.
Astonishingly the rider survived but suffered serious
injuries.
Hamburg police released the film from CCTV recordings to
publicise the release of traffic accident statistics showing 4,500 people were
killed on German roads last year.
