Why is this news? What about the bent utility pole, 4 tow trucks, multiple LPD cars and traffic backed up to Iowa near 23rd and Louisiana Friday?

Pfft. That's not news. That's just another day of drivers at 23rd and Louisiana.

Did she have a motorcycle license?

Bikes are tricky. Hit an oily spot or a puddle of antifreeze while braking and you have a good chance of going down. I has a CB1000 in my younger days and laid it down a few times. It's a little different than a car.

Was it a motorcycle or a vespa/scooter?

I don't think oil spots, anti freeze puddles, or any other possible road debris have a darn thing to do with it when a person "brakes suddenly to turn" and then "loses control" of their motorcycle. Sounds like an inexperienced rider, to me...lot of young gals (guys too) want to hop on the scoot&ride like they've got years of experience&many miles under their belt already. It ain't that easy. justfornow-you cracked me up! Sign me-an ol' Harley riding broad. :)

You may be right. 10 years after not riding a bike I took a friend's shadow for a ride and everything was fine until I had to make a u-turn.and it wouldn't turn.

Sounds like she was braking in a turn. Never brake in a turn on a motorcycle. It is the fastest way to go down. That is taught in motorcycle safety classes like Safe Rider and Rider's Edge.

poor girl, she drops her bike, and she draws so many comments here, multiple times the length of the article itself!
hope she's not too bruised up and her bike's okay.

when the horse throws you, the best thing is to get back on her.
girl, you can do it.
