A major accident involving a group of at least 15 motorcycles and an RV near Edmundston, N.B., has claimed the life of one person, and sent several others to hospital.

Lucie Picoton , a 911 dispatcher, said that between 15 and 20 motorcycles were involved in a mass collision with at least one RV. One person was confirmed dead on the site and at least eight others were taken to hospital.

A witness at the scene said a fleet of bikers were attempting to pass an RV as it was turning into the campground.

Holy Hell. I hope the RV wasn't too badly damaged.

RVing isn't as safe as people think.

Might be time to build that second road.

I think the important thing to remember here is that there are 20 less bikes on the road.

There's also one less balloon in the sky but that's tragic. They generally stay away from the roads and don't bother anybody.

Hopefully the RV didn't suffer a flat tire out of this. They are a bitch to change.

You're probably an okay cool biker. I mean the other ones. You know who I mean.

They probably hit a patch of ice and couldn't slow down.

Maybe somebody put a round-about in there and confused them?

We like to call them traffic calming circles.
