When those stupid trees jump out at you
 

Yeah... can't say I'd be turning off my bike and killing the lights in the middle of the effing road... tree or not.

The car (I think it was a car, but could only see one brake light on the video) that hit the tree ahead of him seems to have the lighting situation covered.

He's lucky someone was ahead of him to take the hit, that would have been ugly to come up on without notice.

Crazy!

Aye.. and here I am overreacting about a plastic tote I almost ran into last week. I've vowed to throw the high beams on until I can get a headlight where I can actually see shit at night.. at least on the highways.
