A new road safety vid

I think we as motorcyclists do actually forget that perhaps the car drivers do not see us due to things like the previous video......

Yup, or had his headlight on fullbeam, or riding faster, or weaving about to break up the blind spots, or making some noise, or....

Ride around like an axe murderer and you have no problems, except other bikers staying away from you.. not such a bad thing either though.

ACC should buy that and screen it here (the second video in the thread). It would seem to fit well with their mandate for injury prevention....

Nup. It's a 2stroke, Suzuki...possibly a T250.
And yes, the rider was not well-positioned.

Just found this 30 second vid, and I think its' worth starting a thread about. Not much to discuss though. Just watch it.

But it is an extremely effective ad.
