You know...there's SEVERAL instances in there that show bikes running red lights.And stop signs."Distracted"?"hoping for the best"?Bunch of em didn't even apply brakes when running into the back of the cages.To be fair...there were a bunch of cage drivers turning in FRONT of oncoming traffic.Looks like mainly Russia and China...somewhere over there.Lots of drunk drivers in Russia.(including bikers).

Wait a minute! Who yanked it? The newbie police? Hellooooow! It is happening out there and not just to newbies. Even the most alert rider can be taken down at any moment. Don't think your invincible. Ride like nobody sees you cause it will save your life. Not saying be afraid or don't enjoy your ride. Just expect that you are the one responsible for you.

LOL...I look at these vids from time to time on youtube.Not for entertainment..but for stuff that can happen to any of us.There's a lot in these to apply to myself about what NOT to do.They've actually heightened my thinking while riding...in a good way.

This stuff they don't teach people in MC classes.These bikes we have can be HIGHLY volatile in the right situations.As we all know.Another H2 rider crashed just the other day(that's 'several' now)and was killed.I'm only hoping all of us will resist somewhat at certain times to 'plow on through'.PLEASE all...be watchful.

Fortunately most of those vids are out of other countries. But yeah, it's no shit every day that could be one of us. I'd say historically on this forum it's been about 20% accidents have involved another vehicle. Most have been loss of control due to rider error.

Probably the goriest pics I ever saw was a motorcyclist run over by a truck, and unfortunately was wrapped around the trailer tandem tires. Not sure probably not a bad way to die really, I'm sure it came quick. But they'd be finding body parts on that trailer for years.

Here is the mindset discipline... Go where they just were, they are not going to throw it in reverse and meet you back there so the mantra is to think about this move at all times. Someone comes out of a street and crosses right to left in front of you, your aim it to steer right.

A lefthander in front of you is to steer left. Got it?
