This is hard to look at. May the One shine his light on these families and protect us from this environment. May the State be given the lights and fortitude to ensure justice be done.

Several of those killed were members of the Jarhead Motorcycle Club and were on their way to an event at the American Legion, according to the station. The club's members include active and veteran Marines. Such a tragic loss.

So very terrible! So many rider with a love of life. Our prayers going to their families and friends.

It feels like we keep hearing more and more of death on the roads. I lost my restaurant manager and friend Thursday morning to the same type accident. Two killed old right. Life can be so hard at times God Bless us all.

Such a tragic accident. RIP to the Jarhead members killed, and prayers for the 3 survivors of the crash as well as the family, and friends of all those affected.

The truck driver escaped unhurt, somehow.

No charges on him yet, but the state is all over it even calling in the NTSB for assistance.

The truck driver is without a doubt at fault for crossing the centerline into the pack of bikes. Toxicology tests are still out/pending.

Hopefully he had a medical issue causing this vs texting or any other distraction that could have been prevented...

I talked to my brother in MN yesterday

A friend of ours was seriously injured when a Fed X truck made an illegal u turn on him

Of course the news played it up saying another Harley rider NOT wearing his helmet was injured in a motorcycle accident

My brothers band will be doing a benefit for him some time this summer

We can NEVER be too careful out there my brothers and sisters

We had a similar accident to a bunch of 20+ local riders. They were riding so close together that there was no room to get out of the way.

Thanks but I was hoping to find follow-up information about the truck driver and why he plowed into the bikers. That link doesn't have anything about or if it does I'm looking right over it. Something like what might have happened with the truck driver I suppose. I would think by now there might be more info.

 

[Fearless]

This horrible event from the news I saw the police are still investigating into what happened and will not say if anyone will be charged or not yet. keeping all involved in our thoughts and prayers tragic though.

Sad Day!

Truck driver ran back to Massachusetts after the crash and has been arrested there as a fugitive from justice.

When the time comes, he will face a judge for 7 counts of negligent homicide.

Justice moves slowly here in NH at times, but it eventually will catch up to those ner~do~wells who think they're home free...

Sorry but you'll have to copy/paste the link to see the full details here:

Just had an update on the local news.

He is currently out on bail from another recent incident in CT for operating under drug impairment or DUI. Guess he figured he'd never get caught again in CT.

Unfortunately for those he killed and injured, he might be carrying on in his nefarious history with impaired driving.

He evidently fled the scene after the crash, so an impaired driving charge will be difficult at best to prosecute in this case.

He deserves the maximum allowable sentence for this, especially if he was on his phone or otherwise distracted at the time of the crash...

I guess I want to know is why was he driving if he was out on bail for a driving offense like DUI or such

Why, Why you ask thats because people like that don't give a shit....What are they going to do to him...Take his drivers license away.....They already did.........

 

[peteg59]

In NH, if it's a first offense, the actual license is taken away upon arrest and a temporary paper license is issued that is good for 30 days. Once the court case comes up, it is either returned on a finding of not guilty, or the license is suspended for the duration set by the applicable law/judge.

Refusal of a breathalyzer or blood test is automatic 1 year loss of license. Do not pass GO, & do not collect $200.00!

Not sure how it works in CT, but most N/E states are similar nowadays.
