Ambulance Crosses LIVE Track During Motorcycle Race

[@scottlathrop66]

WERA has a history of playing loose with the rules and reality. I'm surprised they are still around.

There should be no such thing as a hot track crossing...sheeeze

[@mb4lunch]

This is worse than the drunk sport touring rider that entered a hot track the wrong direction on a street machine at Little Tally. And.... It was also a WERA event I think. Shit man.

[@Setzerpendence]

The real story is the "Ambulance beats racers to wreck" 😂, Glad those guys are all good

[@mb4lunch]

Very well explained.

[@castro6966]

Even if it was a miscommunication between the person who calls out the ambulance, or the ambulance going out without receiving a green light all this will definitely fall on the organizers

I was a United Safty Marshall at New Hampshire motor speedway and that would never happen on our watch

[@zachowens1412]

any plans to continue the between two wheels podcast?

[@zacharyfett2491]

Is a full course yellow not an option? This seems just nuts.

[@mb4lunch]

No. They need to throw the Red flag.... No guessing with a led sled in the riders path.

Freshly built R1 totaled by a careless act by both race officials and the EMS driver, who had plenty of time to realize there was a pair of bikes moving at Mach Jesus toward him. No flags were visible, which means the race committee never made it known to the racers that he was crossing, and likely never said the ambulance could cross in the first place. Most of the blame falls on the EMT driving it, and a good portion of the blame falls on the race officials for not communicating with the ambulance crew or the racers to coordinate a crossing. I strongly believe that the Ambulance company should be held responsible for their role, and the race officials should be reprimanded for not giving proper commands to both the EMT’s and the racers.

I forgot to clarify that there was a second rider involved who swerved right and removed the ambulances rear bumper. There’s a photo of the second bike that made its rounds following the accident with the caption “It’s a miracle he still has his leg”.

[@TezcatlipocaMountyRailfan]

Oh… he said that. This is why you watch the full thing before typing a comment 😂. Oops.

[@dannymcrae446]

So are they liable for any injuries sustained/ damages to the bikes? This is clearly an at fault incident?

[@brad3675]

WTF???????
