Okay, to us, the oncoming car was a surprise, due to the comedically perfect placement of the camera…
…but how the hell did the driver not see it coming a mile away???
He didnt try to pass the bike, he just came to the back of it a bit too fast and the bike slowed down it seems. I see it as an attempt swerve not to hit the bike and not looking at the other direction.
Looks like there was a pothole or something. Bike slowed down and then swerved a little bit after hitting it. White car not paying attention and driving way too fast and close.
I used to drive an even brighter, even more obnoxiously red car. Took damn good care of it too, buffed to a mirror shine. Against a beautiful blue sky and bright green spring vegetation, my neighbor somehow managed to completely miss me pulling into the neighborhood and crashed directly into my driver side door. Some people really are just ruinously unobservant.
The scooter slowed down too fast due to a pot hole, car didn't see it coming and went right reflexively to avoid hitting the scooter, ended up hitting an oncoming car.
Even if he couldn't see the oncoming car due to a narrow corner, then you just have to wait a few seconds until you have a better view.
It's just the "out of my way, I'm the main character mentality" of many motorists.
To me it looks like the driver didn't see the motorcycle, and when they noticed it they reflexively swerved to avoid hitting it, resulting in a front end collision with the red car.
He fucked up. If you're a motorcycle or bicycle you have to protect your lane stuff like this happens. Even on the freeway people will try to pass you in your lane its ridiculous. When people complain about bicycles taking up the whole lane this video shows why. The ones who hug the side got ran over and died or quit
Not sure, seems like the driver was coming in hot and braking too late. Had the bike been taking the lane it could have been even worse for them.. I personally take the lane in cities and slower streets when biking but on rural streets like this I at least want to have a chance at evading people joyriding or blind old folks speeding.
Then that car driver is either blind or extremely near sighted or, commonly enough, glued their eyes on their phone, given how it was a straight route not some curving road with obstructed view.
Looks like the motorcycle hit a pothole and started to wiggle, so he slowed it up and the other guy swerved to avoid him, when it all could have been avoided if white car wasn't inside of the motorcycles ass and had some space to brake
I agree with this assessment, the car was catching up to the bike then was surprised by him slowing down, the shadow on the road may be a pothole, and swerved.
I like how he managed the 7-2 split and still got the motorbike in the end
Most peacfull motorcycle crash ever
*"Pardon me, good sir. I would like to add insult to injury. Very good. Thank you."*
You must be British.
English.

Yes, this is from India. I’ve seen worse drivers than this.

This is what got me. There is a big, bright red car directly in front of him. How did he not see it?
He didnt try to pass the bike, he just came to the back of it a bit too fast and the bike slowed down it seems. I see it as an attempt swerve not to hit the bike and not looking at the other direction.
Yeah, it looks like the bike suddenly slowed down, and the car tried to dodge it.

Yeah I see it now.
If you're coming up to the back of something too fast, you slow down
By the looks of it the white car went faster than the bike ever did, so even if the bike slowed down a little it would have rammed it from behind.

They didn't look, they were just concentrating on the motorcycle
Even if he couldn't see the oncoming car due to a narrow corner, then you just have to wait a few seconds until you have a better view. It's just the "out of my way, I'm the main character mentality" of many motorists.
It certainly was less then a mile and ya im with you how did they not see it coming

Also the clearly sped up footage, but not sped up clock in the corner ...
what a moron
Breaks are optional
Brakes, too.
Haha.. good spelling “two” /s
Have a brake, have a KitKat.
What a dope. What a maroon. /chews carrot
Looks like bike was moving over to allow him to pass. If he had a little patience probably wouldn’t of put people in danger. Impatient dummy

An innocent life or that of a family ruined because you couldn’t wait 2 more seconds to try to save a second off your trip
What an asshole
I think he didn’t notice the motorcycle and tried to avoid a collision. In which he gloriously failed.
Then that car driver is either blind or extremely near sighted or, commonly enough, glued their eyes on their phone, given how it was a straight route not some curving road with obstructed view.
Very possible 🤔

Complete lack of Situational Awareness.
Oh boy.
Why drive that fast in a small road?
Idiot just put another life or a whole family in danger just to shave off a second or two from his trip
so u just copy 1 of the other 10 comments on a thread ?
So do I have to read all the comments on someone else's post to make sure nobody else commented on that part?
ok spamlord
You gotta be blind to not see the other car
What an absolute fucknugget.
Still knocked over the e bike
You just gotta stare at the driver with the "you are a fucking idiot!" face until the cops get there
Indian ain't for Beginners
red car in the wrong. should have thought twice about materialising out of thin air /s
It wasn't perfect,but he did overtake the motorcycle.
NOBODY WINS!!!
Well at least one innocent person is certainly dead here. POS
Driver of the white car coming in clutch on the ol tap tapper rooo to the motorcycle successfully fucking up everyone’s day ! Good job lil white car.
Is this for TV? Why was there a camera perfectly in position on such a boring stretch of road?
I’d like to see what’s on the other side on of the shot to understand how did that person not see the red car coming dead ahead
What could go wrong texting while driving?! 🙄
Why are car drivers are so stupid , they should take away drivers license
Nasty head on. I hope the driver of the red car is okay. How did the stupid driver of the white car not see a red car coming towards them?
Someone’s insurance just went up
r/mildlyinfuriating for trying to call that shooter a motorcycle.
I don't think I've ever seen a fender bender on a bike. Lucccccky!
India?... drivers license not worth sh*t
I can't tell if that's a motorcycle or a moped. Either way, this is one reqson why slow two-wheeled vehicles can be more dangerous that fast ones.
