bladerunner 0 Posted October 19, 2011 Yes we do need eyes in our asses. Unfortunately when this happens in the eyes of the law it's as much the bikers fault as the car drivers. Whenever I'm filtering down a line of cars I watch out for ANY signs that somebody might do just what happened in the video like look at the front wheels of the cars as they will move before the car swings out, watch out for someone leaving a gap in front of them to give them room to spin round,it might look like they've left the gap for you so be specially ready for that one. Also beware of cars that move over to the left it might not be a bike friendly car driver but someone getting ready to do a uturn. Finally try and look at the driver, either straight at him or through his mirror see what he's doing , you tend to develop a sixth sense over the years and can sometimes just see these things coming.

Guest Guest Posted October 19, 2011 No indicators. No mirrors. That biker was inside the white lines so wasn't an illegal move either. Thank grund they weren't doing more than 20mph! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I agree about the speed but the bike WAS on the white lines approaching the point of impact so I would have said that it was "an illegal move" so the biker must share some of the blame.I always feel very vulnerable out in no mans land like that so tend to proceed with EXTREME caution but I still feel that it could happen to me if in the wrong place, wrong time.My mate just had 6 months off work from just such a crash but he did get paid out eventually.

firehawk 0 Posted October 19, 2011 they are very lucky looking at the size of the dent in the door.On another note, reading the comments below the vid using a translator is keeping me quite ammused. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
haveugot1 0 Posted October 19, 2011 Very lucky no one was seriously hurt, but idont think the biker stood much of a chance as the car driver showed no intention of turning or did he bother to look.What would of happened if that were a police biker and they do filter traffic?
