I don't know what the local laws and customs in the video.  But the riding style does seem awefully risky and dangerous to me.  Without knowing the background, I would say the guy got what he asked for (and lucky to live thru it).

Why the hell did he just run into that car? All those passes between two direction traffic, and he just runs into the back of a car when the other lane was open.  ???

Looked like he had some headshake right before that (which prolly prevented him from turning).  The headshake didn't finish 'til it was too late.  He gets on the brakes for just a moment and then slams into the car.

In the video I can't really see why he even bothered pulling back into the right lane, given his speed and what appears to be open tarmac ahead of him in the left and middle.

Yup. Brings it down from a wheelie juuuuuuust enough off center to give some head shake right at 4:32.

I can't wait until Marquez gets on his level and makes Jorge trip on his tampon string.

I find it disturbing that you're imagining me in a sauna, never mind the teletubbie aspect of it

That was dumb. Anyone who rides like an asshat eventually ends up in a situation like that.

Ride responsibly. Ride safely.

the worst part would be all the cars he passed at a million miles  per hour passing him as his bike is destroyed on the side of the road.  or i suppose that would be the best part if you were driving one of those cars he passed...  [thumbsup]

They got balls.  Can't take that away.  They just take the lane splitting that most of us do to another level.
I don't really understand the comments from bikers saying they got what they deserve.  That's an f'd up thing to say to another biker.  No matter what.
620M 2004 Dark i.e.; ~ 57K miles (all me);  Looking to swap out engine now.
Triumph Speed Triple 2006 (now ~ 44K miles bought @ 4K miles on 04/2010)
Honda Grom 2015 ~ 3500miles so far.  Love this lil bike

Sometimes I wish riders around here could wreck in such a way that would be painful, but not damaging in a lasting manner.

Because you learn more from painful lessons than painless ones.

I don't wish any of them harmed, just the universe's equivalent a slap across the backside. A "That'll learn ya!"

So I wouldn't be so harsh as to say they got what they deserved, but I would say they got what couldn't have been totally unexpected.
