So do you think it was the yellow lines that helped him go over? Slippery buggers. I bet ya he felt like a real twit too.

The fact that he crossed the double yellow is just another symptom of poor skill and judgement.

It looks like she may be about to lose a little more than some skin.

Yes jeans do shred on impact. I slid on the pavement at about 20mph and my jeans were toast.

I saw a chart somewhere once that gave ratings of different materials on pavement. I think it was some European standards thingy. I remember it said jeans have a .6 rating. Meaning jeans will shred within .6 seconds after impacting pavement.

I can only hope he succeeded in impressing her.

I guess the good news is that they were wearing helmets. They may have been stupid, but at least not completely...
