    I can't even figure out where that car came from. I can't see it on the road in front of the truck. Perhaps it pulled out from a side road.

    But yeah, I would say the rider had little visibility of the oncoming traffic while overtaking a truck on the right hand side while going around a left hand corner.

    At least some good may come of it being on You Tube. Hopefully it will make someone else stop and think before attempting something similar, and save their life.

    I would say it didnt pull out of anywhere,was just driving along minding his own business until he hit the idiot on a bike on the wrong side of the road,the rider got nowhere near passing the truck,at best decided to leave his lane to have a look,fuckin knob.

    Since it was a left hand bend, looking through from the left side of the truck would have been safe. Even then, I wouldn't pass any vehicle on a lefty.

    Just saw the youtube poster (or whatever you call youtube users) claims it was him filmed and that he suffered no broken bones. Lady luck.

    hey, this is my cousins husband, hes lucky he isnt dead, the truck kept on speeding up and wouldnt let it pass, so leave the guy alone!
    WTF???





    Anyway, The rider should have had plenty of time to pull back into his lane, He wasn't even passing.

    That aside, I love the blue shade of the sky in that vid.
