Check out this motocycle accident (vid)
 

What a fukin retard in the white car.

http://www.filecabi.net/video/SevereBikeCrash.html

I Hope the guy lived to kick the shit out of the driver.

:(

always reminds me of the night i got into my bike accident.

i think its time they passed a law banning cars altogether :2 cents:

Holy Fuck... that was brutal :(

Yeah, partly the driver's fault, but the biker was clearly going over the speed limit. Also the car was turning in so slowly that the biker could have seen the car from a distance, but looks like he didn't bother hitting the brakes.

It's almost as if the guy in the car wanted that to happen. I mean, before you turn don't you look to see what's coming at you. If a guy is on a bike traveling fast you'll see him and while he may be an idiot for travelling fast, I'd just wait until he passed. Jesus.

Would be interesting if the video had sound, we could hear how loud was the bike. Loud pipes save lifes.

umm i didnt see any speed limit posted.. he couldn't have "clearly" been going over the speed limit if we dont even know what it was..

Barring any unseen things, this is totally the cars fault.. you can tell there was no other traffic in the bike's lane so there was nothing to interfere with her/his view ( the cars view )

The person just pulled across, then looked , tried to stop , but it was to late they already had their bumper out.

Ok, not clearly over the speed limit, but cleary going fast, how's that?

whos to say that off to the left of the screen could be a blind hill, perhaps the biker topped the hill doing the speed limit right as the car was turning. No way to judge or know who was at fault merely by the small frame that the video shows.

that was clearly the bikes fault they were going over the speed limit

One of the reasons why I won't ride on the streets..dirt bikes are a little safer

I'd bet he survived

i agree with this assessment, if you look carefully at the speed of the video (people are walking and running about 2/3rds normal speed) the bike appears to be going about 50mph on the video, and probably close to 75mph in real time.

WAY too fast for residential area on a street with many areas of ingress/egress.

i am a sportbiker. this guy was a stupid sportbiker.

the car was turning left..... its his RESPONSIBILITY to ensure there are no oncoming cars before he turns into the gas station... its not the bikers responsibility to stop and let the car turn left... when you're turning left, you yield to oncoming traffic... not the other way around :2 cents:

Yeah, if you want to ride properly fast, watch some Ghost Rider videos. Here's one:

Ghost Rider, The Final Ride trailer (21 MB)

:error

it is if he doesn't want to get in a wreck.

i've been riding bikes for years and i can't tell u how many times i've had to be responsible for not getting in wrecks with idiot drivers like the one in that car

legally you're correct, but there are mitigating circumstances...

the biker was clearly speeding. so the person in the car sees the small object in the distance (not realizing that the guy is doing maybe double the speed limit) and starts the left turn.

and the biker is going so FUCKING FAST he can't react fast enough.

a judge will decide this one; normally true it is the car driver's fault, EXCEPT in this case the biker is speeding.

moral of the story---if you are a biker ride the bike to protect yourself, don't depend on the law to protect you from injury.

this biker was going too fast for the conditions.

Holy fucking shit.

This is why I wont ride a bike. There are too many idiots in cars who just don't see bikers.

True and a point that hadn't been brought up here, the biker was going way too fast for the car to probably even see him when he started turning left.

judging by the video, it doesn't look like hes going ridiculous fast obviously it looks a lot faster since he comes to a dead stop.... but keep in mind... even going 50km(30mph) to a dead stop you will fly quite the distance...

it's still the drivers fault, he should be aware of his surroundings... if the guy on the bike was going like a 100mph i could see why the driver would think he had a lot more time to turn... but it's not like hes travelling THAT fast..

i agree, he was speeding!

IMO, he was comfortably going above 60mph.

Ouch .... man who cares whos fault it is. The dude got jacked up period. Worry about whos at fault ... thats up to the courts.

The left turn caused the crash.

You should have chimed in here earlier dude, we were all wondering what had caused the accident. Case solved. :thumbsup

Thats much better , all motorcycles generally go "fast" so he didn't seem to be going extremely fast . most likely very close to the speed limit ( if it wasn't a school zone "

I would say he was going between 30-50 judging the distance travelled/time it took.

You can slow it down and look at the frame rate and guestimate the distance..

1 mph = 1.4 feet per second..

40 mph = 56 feet per second

so if he is going faster than 40 he should be going more than 5.6 feet per tenth of a second.. looks like he is going much slower than that..

guys ... 60-70mph on a road like that is not fast ... it didn't look like he was going any faster then i would in my car on that road ... it looks like the car didn't see him and panic when he did... the car stopped in the middle of the lane .. if the car would have continued with the turn the bike most likely would have been fine ....

Shit happens. More shocking is those other cars just driving by like nothing happened....hmm mentality....

Well when an accident like that happend. This is exactly what the cop told me.

The Biker has the right of WAY he is going stright. He can be going 10000 mph and it's his LANE but because there was no cop to see him speeding he is 100% in the clear. The Car was making a left turn. And did not fail to yeild to on coming traffic. As you can see in the video the car was in both lanes before making the left into the gas station.


Cars FAULT

Motocycle guy = dead


So who won?

hahahahahahahahahahahaha=
good, but use as a referent the speed of people walking and running in the video---these are speed that can be adjusted by tweaking the video speed so the people look "normal"---and then once you get the people looking "normal" speed, THEN do your estimate of the motorcylist velocity...

and you will see beyond a shadow of a doubt the guy is going WAY FAST for that suburban street.

all true.

Indeed ... :disgust you always should drive in a speed that could let you stop safe if some thing gets in the way. :pimp

yeah the driver of that bike had the priority the car that was trying to turn left did not give it.... :disgust

Fact: if the biker was at/under the speed limit for that area he would have time to react and brake in time to avoid the collision. Case closed.

the speed of people walking have nothing to do with how fast he is going.. them walking faster or slower doesnt make the bike faster or slower. Theres a timer in the corner of the video , i used that as a reference point, and the fact it corresponds with real time.. = he was going 40 or slower.. show me two frames a tenth of a second apart where he clears more than 4 feet

Good thing your not a judge... lol

What kind of logic did you use to come to that conclusion..

The guy pulled out in front of him , the only thing he could do is lay the bike down ( not adviseable )

HOLY SHIT!!!! the bike was fucking moving quick, that was one sweet vid.

ahahahahahahahahaha :thumbsup

What a fucking dumb ass in the white car. I hope the guy on the bike lived to, to fuck him up to.

what a fuck tard bike driver

if that is the case, i stand corrected.

and if so, you made the right call on this.

Well define "fast". That is such a relative term. In our part of the world the speed limit is 65 on most 2 lane roads and 70 in some areas.

He could have been going "fast", but compared to what. He was obviously ging fast compared to the stopped car he hit, but maybe not "fast" compared to the legal limit.

just my .02

Why you hatin' on the biker, man?

I think the biker went too fast.

But what was even more horrific was the other cars just slowly driving by and watching instead of offering some fucking help. WTF. :(

damn that has to hurt

the biker was way to fast....

Damn! Thats gonna hurt

Holy crap.. Dayam! The biker was definitely speeding.

ummm is it just me or did anyone else notice the cars behind just drive right on by??? holy shit what cold mofo's to just watch a guy go flying off his bike then drive on by as if nothing had happened!

i'm sure he survived...

just like that fat lady,,,shae was running around in circles
