Co-worker sent me a link to this article. (http://www.dailyherald.com/story/?id=177068) Definitely worth passing along.

Drunk mf'ers should be tried for attempted manslaughter, IMO.

Within seconds, a Friday night ride on his motorcycle turned into a life-or-death situation. A rear-end collision left Murray trying to prevent himself from being run over -- his helmet bumping against a spinning tire.
Fortunately for Murray, Tom Genge was there -- pushing against the vehicle to try to stop it. Staring into the driver's eyes, Genge pounded and hollered as if his life depended on it. In fact, that life was Murray's.
If not for Genge and other witnesses who jumped to his aid -- and a helmet he wore for the first time this year -- Murray knows he'd be dead.


Officers eventually arrested Omera Perez Roman, 25, of 272 N. Swift Road, Addison, on charges of obstruction of justice, felony aggravated driving while intoxicated, driving while intoxicated while license revoked and driving while intoxicated without insurance. He is being held in DuPage County jail on $300,000 bond.

Any cage driver who hits a motorcycle should be looked at very hard regarding manslaughter charges. A lot of those idiots are so fucking clueless behind the wheel, they're a threat to everyone.

A rear-end collision? Jeez! This is why you give space in front and check your mirrors even when you are stopped at the light.
