    Thought Our Cagers Were Bad?

    Saw this. Honestly my jaw is still on the floor.

    Just watched it again. You can hear the Rider say "Thats Wrong" sums it all up really.

    Sure he was following too close, the car driver however still should've checked before overtaking.

    To be honest. I have my doubts the car was trying to pass at all if you know what I mean.

    Yep, didn't look like overtaking, more like ramming!

    Neither did the biker.

    Looks painful, but he's at fault. Didn't see any indicator light come on when he overtook, so tough luck.

    That's wrong alright.

    Still, I think they were both at fault.

    Equally dumb causing an accident that could have been avoided.

    Be careful out there!
    Keep it rubber-side down...

    Both in the wrong. Think the rider was a bit naive to think that the car wasn't going to pull out too.

    '1st cab in the rank' and all that.

    Agree. Bad riding and bad driving. When overtaking people that are also waiting to overtake you've got to be soooooo careful. Even when in a car I'm shit scared of overtaking more than one vehicle in case one pulls out.
    To split or not to split, that is the question

    Watched a few times and the red car is definately going to pass the car in front it, not a 'ram the bike thing'....the brake lights on the car are not for the bikes sake ie: back off, its because the car is following a tad close to the one in front, bike/car decide to pass within milli seconds of each other...neither indicated...so they are both wrong, biker lucky in my book...

    Either way it's another gixxer written off. Should make all the riders of other models happy.

    What brand are those gloves OAB?

    Another dead Gixxer is one less bike to overtake me and question my manhood.
    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    The car did indicate but only when he was pulling out. Both at fault really thou.
    Those who dont learn from history, are doomed to repeat it.
