Explaining Terminal Ballistics with a motorcycle accident
Graphic video warning.
According to Google, Terminal ballistics is the study of a projectile’s behavior upon striking, penetrating, and interacting with a target, focusing on energy transfer, bullet expansion, and damage mechanics. It basically explains how come a itty bitty peace of pliable metal can do damage and the simple answer is speed.
And the aftermath.
The rear of the car is now not so neatly folded inside the vehicle alongside the motorcycle. Most of the bike is inside the car and it injured a woman inside gravely.
I have seen lots of videos of bikes rear ending cars at low speeds, both the car and the humans involved walking away from the accident. That both car occupants survived somehow is a plain miracle.



Speed is fine but stupid is final.
Racing at night, with no concern about other traffic or the red light ahead. And motorcyclists wonder why so many other drivers hate them.
