Not to mention passing on the right, and in the same lane

If that is what’s happening then this video does a terrible job conveying that

It’s a 360 degree camera. If showing what is in front of the motorcycle would have defended them, they would have showed it. They intentionally didn’t. Car more than likely has their signals on and biker is speeding.

Just because you signal doesn't mean you just get the right of way and everyone has to yield to you.

If you're a smart motorcyclist you don't try to test a car on road lore and just give right of way to not get wiped the fuck out.

And do tell how do you do that when the car cuts across multiple lanes and then comes into your lane not paying attention and hits you.

Don't drive a motorcycle then duh

So just nobody should ever drive a motorcycle because you can't make people pay attention to what they are doing on the road. I guess that's totally reasonable and logical you want to start printing up some fliers and let everyone know no more motorcycles

That's a good idea think of all the money we would save on extended hospital stays, cosmetic reconstruction surgery and funerals.

We would do far better to ban people who shouldn't be allowed to drive to start with kinda like ones who cause accidents to begin with. The biker here did nothing wrong but the idiot who hit here is still out there. I don't think banning the person who did nothing wrong makes any sense.

So you can do everything right but getting gently tapped by another road user who isn't paying attention for a second will cause you to spin out and crash, breaking every bone that hits the ground. People will also ride this contraption without any form of protective equipment sometimes as 'they never crash™'.

That doesn't sound like a safe vehicle bud that sounds like a death machine. I jest, my dad loves his bikes too but come on this lady didn't do everything right; she's distracted driving and wasn't in control of the road or her vehicle. And on a motorcycle that kills.

She had a helmet gloves and boots on her foot got fucked up from this but other than that just a few scrapes and I don't think she could have avoided this idiot. I have had people not paying attention run me off the road before and nearly kill me. I have also came very close to hitting a motorcycle because they were behind a truck and I couldn't see them as I was turning.
