This was the Ellenbrook crash a few posts ago.
At the time, the driver claimed to have a "seizure"
It now looks like a "distracted" driver who then tried to flee the scene, but crashed into other cars.
The rider is still in hospital, but is OK and will make a full recovery

Theres often many things at stake for a driver to perform a hit & run.
Being deliberate is one thing but the fact that they may be under the influence of a drug or alcahol, being unlicenced or suspended, knowingly driving an unregistered & uninsured car would be prime motivators....this is scary to think there are those out there who are convinced the law doesn't concern them and we have no idea how many of these people pass us each and every day.
