Though it doesn't say in the article, the rider lost his head as he hit the back of the truck at 140+mph. He was part of a group that went around the truck, but he didn't make it around in time. Warren (who's a cop in that area) mentioned that "I should add that the truck was already moving with the flow of traffic, which is around 70+ mph on this section. The truck traveled another 1/4 mile, with the bike wedged up under the left rear tire section. The rider's body fell out into traffic, decapitated."
