How in the hell did that tool in the car manage to do that? : Good to see so many people come to the riders aid though.

I cant see it here at work but I assume it's the one where the chick on the black R1 gets cut off, almost t-boned by some ******** in a black car and a good samaritan with a grade-A pair of cans puts on a nice peep show? Thats happend a while ago, I was following the case and I wonder what happened to the guy as far as charges go.

Far out, the rider did as much as she could to avoid hitting the car. Hope she was alright in the end! Looked pretty nasty.

Thats nasty... Feel sorry for the bloke really. Hope he is ok. Have no idea what was going on the the car though..

But seeming that he seemed ok, sore but "ok". I can see the funny side.. I reckon he was faking it just to have a view like this?

Bloody hell there is a thumbnail for another accident (39 seconds length) where a car turns into the oncoming lane to drive into a servo and the bike rider flies for ever..... the chilling thing was that the cars behind the first car just drive around and keep going.......

Ur kidding rite???

We had a bike cam thing on our local news recently too. The guy was street cacing (hitting 180-200 in a 60 km/h) and ended up killing someone. (Hit caror the guy he was racing did or???).

I just found it ironic that the idiot (The idiot HERE I mean!) taped his own evidence and our cops are imagining all kinds of "street racing" offenses right now anyways!
