    Last I checked they can't hurt you... They require an external force manipulating them to pose any threat/harm.
    Cause I could be wrong maybee there is a gun out there running round with AI of it's own. Actually there probably is, we are at a time when unmanned military equipment is becoming the norm...

    Alright then, it's like saying you can't be shot.

    My first clue was when he accelerated into the gap while the traffic apparently slowed.

    You could argue this until the cows came home but the fact of the matter is that powered four wheelers have a huge blind spot in the very area that lane splitting takes advantage of.

    Until riders realise this and act accordingly this sort of accident will continue to happen.

    "ride like they don't see you" seems both fitting and ironic here.
    And I to my motorcycle parked like the soul of the junkyard. Restored, a bicycle fleshed with power, and tore off. Up Highway 106 continually drunk on the wind in my mouth. Wringing the handlebar for speed, wild to be wreckage forever.

    Nah, riffer has it right. I learn't very early on that most accidents I had when I started riding where in fact my fault to some degree. Sometimes they were my fault cause I rode like a dick and sometimes because had I have been actually being paying attention to what was going on around me I could have avoided the incident all together. I choose to be careful now, I learn't my lesson!

    I don't know who the bigger douche-bag is, the rider or those on this forum who despite showing the ability to read and write still can't understand KM's message.

    It's like they say Fraser, you can lead a horse to water but you can't make it think.

    This is merely another rider making a video ... with the intended purpose of making the rider look good....

    But ... the actual result ... is the exact opposite ...

    Argued that myself. But then realised that the 'gently gently softly softly' delivery had no impact. Look who has got the most people talking about the 'issue'. Those that say 'oh that sucks bro, get well soon' or those that say 'do you think there was something you could have done about it to avoid it in the first place'? Sure, when you're banged up it's that last thing you want to hear, but in all reality it should be the only thing you pay attention to.

    I hear you and I would like to agree, but KM hasnt got the majority talking about the issues, he just agitates/trolls and pisses them off, then ducks out popping in just enough to keep himself in the frame. That isnt getting the message through, not if the message is his genuine purpose for posting
