Clearly, people can’t tell the front of a motorcycle from the back, the orange part of motorcycle that is intact, is the front of the bike also intact, clearly he got hit from the back, this is a good COP coverup.. no matter if he was a crazy driver, obviously he didn’t deserve to be killed.
The impact was so strong to get him killed, the front of motorcycle would be demolished.

“Was ejected from the bike and sustained fatal injuries…” no where does it say the impact killed him. When you hit pavement or a guardrail at 75+mph your gonna get severely injured. We all know not one motorcycle on the parkway is doing 65mph…

Agreed. You usually see them go by faster than the speed limit. Sad.

From the first photo, It’s is clear the motorcyclist can into contact with the rear of the Police SUV. Now the only thing we don’t know is if the Police SUV stopped abruptly and forced the motorcyclist to crash into the SUV or the motorcyclist just misjudge speed and crashed into the SUV. At 67, I think the motorcyclist would know better. Either was it’s a shame someone lost their life. Godspeed to the fallen rider.

As a 69 year old motorcyclist who’s ridden since minibike days I find it impossible to believe this wasn’t done on purpose!! The point of impact to the right rear and quarter panel tells me he cut in front of the bike! This needs to be investigated by the DA!

Why did they need every state
Police officer at that accident.
The poor guy killed wasn’t a cop.

I take the GSP from Toms River (Exit 82A) to Tinton Falls (Exit 105) or to the Turnpike (Exit 129), to and from work 4 days a week. Every motorcycle I see is speeding and weaving in and out of traffic. It scares the daylights out of me! I wish they would prohibit them from driving on the parkway…😥
