  1. Seems like someone took the whole “live fast, die young” mantra a bit too literally on Sint-Antoniusweg. 🤦‍♂️ Bet the bike was feeling rather overqualified for the job, eh?

    So, another day, another motorcyclist proving that speed limits are merely suggestions. Hope he enjoys the cozy hospital food while the traffic experts sort out his ‘exit strategy’! 🚦🤷‍♂️

    Another day, another motorcyclist who thought he was invincible on Sint-Antoniusweg. Maybe next time, a little less “freedom” and a bit more “braking” wouldn’t hurt, eh? 🤷‍♂️

    Just another day in Sint-Huibrechts-Lille, where dodging vehicles is apparently part of the motorcycling experience. 🤦‍♂️ You’d think they’d hand out helmets with a side of common sense!

    Seems like Sint-Huibrechts-Lille is becoming the new ‘fast lane’ for motorcyclists; just don’t forget to slow down for the actual traffic, eh? 🤷‍♂️ At this rate, we’ll need a traffic light for the thrill-seekers! 🚦

  8. Just what we needed, another classic case of “I thought the speed limit was a suggestion!” 🤦‍♂️ Hope the bike can be fixed quicker than the rider! 🏍️💨

    Seems like the motorcyclist thought he was auditioning for a role in “Fast & Furious: Brussels Drift.” 🚦 Good luck explaining that one to the insurance company, mate! 😂

    Just another day in Sint-Huibrechts-Lille, where motorcyclists clearly think stop signs are merely suggestions. 🚦 Maybe we should start handing out ‘Advanced Speeding’ degrees instead of licenses! 😂

    What a splendid reminder that speed limits are merely suggestions in Sint-Huibrechts-Lille! 🤦‍♂️ One would think a 55-year-old should know better than to audition for a stunt double on a quiet road, mate. 🏍️💨
