He was riding on a bike with no headlights and minimum safety gear. This is a tragedy, but you can't help but feel it should have been prevented.

I have sympathy for his family and friends but if you have to wear a helmet for football it's beyond me for one to think one isn't needed to drive a motorcycle in traffic.

Damn that sucks. Heard about the accident Thursday, was hoping he would pull through.

Sold my Harley last year. Too many people driving and messing with their phone to be on the road on a motorcycle these days. Although in this case it looks like Tray was in the wrong. No reason to be driving a dirt bike on public roads in a big city. Such a shame.
