I haven't got time to watch it all, but even as an ex rider myself it just shows motor cyclists are idiots.

When I come off I was doing 130mph in a 40 zone. My fault lucky to be alive. We all need to realise its not always worth the risk.

I can't watch things like that. The argument of whose fault it is aside, some of those are horrific! It's a youtube video, but it's real people....

Bet there would have been some interesting footage after some of the crashes, some of them the cars where clearly in the wrong and looked like there was gone be some violence on behalf of the biker

I would disagree just because a car turns into a rider path does not put them in the wrong, riders under taking, cutting through traffic, speeding, all illegal which puts them in the wrong.

As for me being lucky with my crash, yes I was and I won't ride again. Showing off over took my mate, kept it wide open over took another car, as I was pulling in a hit a slight bump. You can't even feel it in a car, yet it was enough to throw me off. Luckily on to the wrong side of the road, with no cars coming the other way. Bike slide about 1000 yards, me about 500. Couldn't see my bike when I got up. All I had done is rip my thumb nail half off.

Lucky but made me realise how close I was to death, and I didn't want to die lol.

Oh, 1 more thing. All bikers will know what I mean, when your riding down a road (at the speed limit) a car comes to a t junction, he looks at you, he looks at you again............ Then he pulls out! Knob heads.

I was thinking more about the cars changing lanes on the motorways without checking blind spots/mirrors I agree with what your saying about people pulling out on you when they no they ate doing it its happend to me before, also when filtering through traffic and you get an arsehole closes the gap up really pisses me off

A biker should ride with the mindset that a car driver has not seen them. This means not squeezing through gaps between cars, undertaking, and just generally not riding like a prick.

I always drive expecting other motorists to do the absolute worst possible, if I see an indicator then I just presume that the driver hasn't cancelled it etc. Any biker vs car accident will always come out with the motorcyclist worse off, I just don't know why the majority ride like complete cunts all the time, as if the law doesn't apply to them!

I agree most are lunatics BUT it is legal to filter down a dual carriageway between cars I think anything under 20mph and it just pisses car drivers off because they have to sit in it so they purposely close gaps up when your coming down, this thread wasn't made to start a debate and I'm not sticking up saying bikers are all safe riders etc, but its like someone saying all them RS owners drive like lunatics wich wouldn't be true.

theburns1

Well motor cyclists know what to do when they pull over to the white line when they see you filtering through traffic...... By by mirror lol. Did it once felt ace
