I hope all of my students will drive slower after seeing this. Don't forget how precious every life is.

1. This is a true story. A Honda motorcycle collided with a VW car. Police estimate the motorcycle was traveling 155 mph before striking the slow moving car side-on at an intersection.

2. Given that the average human reaction time while driving is 1.5 seconds …

3. That means the motorcycle driver, at 155 mph, would take 14 yards MORE THAN an entire football field length to REACT to the car and make a decision on what action to take!

4. Given that the average street Honda has a weight of 470 pounds… How long does it take the motorcycle to come to a stop, given that it travels 1 m in going from 69.2 m/s to 0 m/s?

5. Newtons to kg… Impulse-Momentum Theorem… Newtons to pounds… 114,268 POUNDS OF IMPACT FORCE!

6. What does that look like? See if you can spot the motorcycle in the photo…

10. PLEASE SLOW DOWN!
