The day after the collision, the Bristol Post reported that his three sisters, Sarah, Mandy and Katie, had rushed to the scene, but Mr Bailey had died before their arrival.
The three devastated sisters then had the terrible task of returning home to tell their mother what had happened.
Mother Karen said after the collision: "The bottom feels like it has dropped out of the world, because he was our world."
Oh noes! Whatever happened?
Jamie Bailey, 29, was "screaming" down Murford Avenue at around 60mph as he mounted a pavement and lost control of the vehicle.
The unemployed father-of-two had no driving licence or insurance when the incident happened on August 26 last year.
The inquest confirmed he was not being tracked by police at the time of the collision, although police had received a report that the motorbike had been stolen.
Gosh. I don’t think there’s a violin small enough, is there?
At a hearing at Flax Bourton coroner's court yesterday, assistant coroner Terrence Moore concluded he had died as a result of a road traffic collision.
Really? Well, I guess they don’t
have a verdict of ‘he died as a result of utter stupidity'..
Following the accident, police returned in October to the neighbourhood where Mr Bailey was killed to warn people of the dangers of speeding.
The event, Operation Torque, was aimed at cutting down on anti-social behaviour and collisions caused by speeding and dangerous driving.
What an absolute waste of police time.
"What an absolute waste of police time."
ReplyDeleteA baited hook for the 'educatid', Julia?
The author of his misfortune is gone, leaving his family to suffer the torment of insensitive comment in a ripping example of poor taste.
Think once.
ReplyDeleteThink twice.
Think don't half inch a motorcycle when you don't have a licence or a helmet and ride it at 60 in a 30 zone up the footpath and into a lamp post.
Thank Christ we have hard-working police to deliver this crucial advice.
From the article:
Mr Bailey, of nearby Wroughton Drive, sustained serious head injuries in the collision
Surprising that he did not make a full recovery.

Alas, not eligible for a Darwin award.
ReplyDeleteEvery cloud has a silver lining.
ReplyDeleteOne less problem in that neighbourhood.
Perhaps the powers-that-be should free-issue Aprilia 125s to known chavs as a cost-effective means of ridding society of its dregs?

ReplyDeleteWOW! A really SHARP brain this bastard has, hay?
If he could have turned the verdict into "Died of rattle snake poisoning during a serious balooning incident" he may stand a chance of EVER reaching full coroner, instead of spending his entire career as a side kick.

ReplyDeleteOh dear how sad never mind.
"Unmarried father of two" : unfortunately he is not lost to the gane pool.
ReplyDeleteA baited hook for the pompous arse,Julia?. Who once again finds himself out of step with public opinion on the treatment thieving scum deserve.
ReplyDeletePerhaps Melvin you may find yourself less sympathetic if the lawnmower thief of old Huddersfield town kills himself fleeing from the police with his booty.

@ WC Jaded.
ReplyDeleteYour earlier stated need for a comprehension app was evidently sincere.
I have sympathy for the man's grieving relatives and for that reason reserved my feelings in the matter of his own demise.
Got it?
This incident cheered me up no end.
ReplyDeleteWhat concerns me most is that this will be added to the death on motorcycle stats to prove how dangerous they are.
ReplyDeleteHope he didn't have 3 sugars in his coffee before he set off....
Give the laptop back to nursey Melvin,it's time for bingo now.
