A man is lucky to escape a high speed crash on his motorbike at Kurri Kurri yesterday.
The man was clocked travelling at 160 kilometers an hour on the Hunter Expressway yesterday afternoon by Highway Patrol officers carrying out speed enforcement.
Officers tried to catch up to the bike in the 110 kilometre an hour speed zone, but were unable to do so.
A short time later they found him seriously injured crashing into a guardrail on Barton Street.
The 28-year-old was taken to John Hunter Hospital with multiple leg fractures.
He's yet to be interviewed by police.
