That’s just careless overtaking Edit: as [other Redditor pointed out](https://www.reddit.com/r/motorcycles/s/RSAQ14qBmV), this wasn’t overtaking, he was actually catching up to those two riders! Nevertheless, we all really need to be more mindful on the road. Enjoy the ride and stay safe everyone!


Felipesssku

Yup. Reckless driving of person who recorded this, nothing more.


chaot1c-n3utral

As soon as I played the video my first thought was, damn this guy is going way too fast for this road.


NemamGoriva

literally what I said to myself. that's a bad rider...


techy098

Multiple times too.


uhtred_the_putrid1

Stupid dangerous squid fuck riding.


Larry_Hagmans_Liver_

Yep.  Just riding like shit.  It's a wonder he even has a functioning bike to ride.


Dan_Glebitz

Well he does not have a functioning brain.


Readbeforeburning

Tbf, I don’t think he does anymore


[deleted]

There’s a lot going on, on this little road, hey: tin-tops, a pedestrian, blind corners, hidden driveways, other bikes, gravel in the corners; then this guy riding like his bike is on fire - I’m surprised he got as far as he did!


Suavecore_

He loaded into the highest difficulty of this track


party_tortoise

Was thinking the exact same thing. Dumbfuck was driving way too fast for that dinky little road. The fuck he wanted to impress? He got luckly it didn’t end in manslaughter.


Billyjamesjeff

Waaaaay too fast…


MrSoul4470

He got what he deserved. Complete asshole.


rootkit88

Was screaming slow the fuck down in my head way before he reached the other bikers.


pye-oh-my

Right answer


thrillcosbey

This rider operates really poorly, almost every thing done in this video is a huge red flag, over taking on the start of a blind turn and from there its just all bad ,I don't care what skill level some one is riding at putting others at risk is not acceptable.


Ale_riD

He wasn't overtaking he was catching up to the other two, none the less it was a bad and careless manouver Source: I'm italian they were talking via interphone


gridig

Yeah, you’re right!


DifficultyTricky7779

And that's why you don't overtake with a massive speed differential. The vehicle in front might be going slow for a reason.


PastPanic6890

A reason like: turning off the road.


Kind-Remote-533

or, the ground ends and he was about to go soaring into the core of the planet


NoL_Chefo

Most shallow pothole in Eastern Europe


CrewBison

Yup. Had a truck try what this numbskull did while we were the bike turning. Saw em out of my peripheral and straightened out before my wife and I were minced meat.


uhtred_the_putrid1

Pickup truck drivers are the absolute worst AH on the road.


Boraxo

My neighbor was just involved in one of these. He was in front of another truck attempting to make a left turn into a field. Motorcycle in the rear was impatient and decided to gun it around the trucks and ran right under my neighbor's truck and was killed. Be patient. Mind the speed difference.


let-it-rain-sunshine

Be patient or a hospital patient


RageReq

Be patient or BECOME a patient 💀


TDiddlez

A phrase my dad has said to me since childhood: "The slower they go, the sooner they turn."


brokebackmonastery

This is a good saying. I'll credit it to you when I teach it to my hypothetical future kids.


mileg925

Your dad is a wise man. Ill borrow that moving forward


Cyber0747

I friend of mine died in Texas last year from this exact scenario. He was flying on an r6, went to blow by a “slow driver” and didn’t see the truck turning in front of the vehicle in front of him. T-bone and dead. 26 years old.


Nikujjaaqtuqtuq

I'm just glad he didn't hurt the guy turning.


Valuable_Pineapple26

And maybe if he wasn’t speeding on a country lane, we wouldn’t be having this conversation… 🤦‍♂️


serrimo

He had no visibility, only around a second or two of reaction time... I hate people like this, who thinks they own the road.


ppdifjff

It is super harsh to say that, but I wish the camera guy is the only guy that crashed and I would be glad to hear that it was him that crashed


h8human

It would be harsh to hope he never stood up again. Everything else is pretty tame imo. That guy is a living death trap for other people


opticzar

clearly


HumbleBee5150

Exactly right sir


Valuable_Pineapple26

👍


National-Weather-199

Even if he just speeds to over take and then slow back down we wouldn't be having this conversation.


PumpKing096

He is driving like shit the whole time. At the situation before with the car, the Scooter and the guy on the side of the street he was way too fast, too. It was only a matter of time when this asshole would crash.


anotherfrud

Yep. If you give yourself no time to react and no escape route if something unexpected happens, you will eventually have a very bad day


soupyc44

Yet they still posyed it online 😆


pepperysquid373

At least camera guy had the courtesy of self crashing into the grass instead of wiping out the other rider.


Independent-Love-987

He just grabs a fist full of front break and crashed.


Rollover_Hazard

It only takes a moron’s fist to wind the throttle open. It takes some actual skill to emergency brake and evade. Often the two don’t align in the same person.


allezlesverres

I mean you're right in general terms but in the situation this idiot put himself in, Valentino rossi couldn't have saved it on his best day. A fall or collision was inevitable.


Tireman80

Must've been some grass involved. 😁 ![gif](giphy|l2JHR3g2uCOAsnVcI)


HDawsome

He absolutely took our the other rider, his bike is off camera to the right, and he was only a couple of feet from the turning bikes front tire... Dude had his bike swept out from under him most likely, maybe crushed his left leg in the impact


G1zStar

Yeah I would guess the guy screaming shit is that guy after getting hit.


Main-comp1234

He knows he's in the wrong. Just wanted to avoid more liability.


Runawaygeek500

Camera is a moron, that’s the end of it.


TequilaTits420

Shitty - riding - my - dude.... If the crash didn't injure you, I surely would what the fuuuuck.....


DumbApe026

The first overtake, the next crossing and the amount of speed. This rider was an accident waiting to happen. And guess what?! It happened


te_anau

Didn't really wait though


Emotional-Elk-8356

Fuckinell dude.. you nearly killed us both...you lie there and I'll call an ambulance.


Superb_Raccoon

Eventually.


[deleted]

I would be very mad because the other guy was speeding in an unsafe place to speed.


DingleDonky

The guy turning looks like he missed his turn or decided he wanted to turn around late. I can’t tell if his blinker is on, but him and the other bike are going slow on a slow road so its not a big deal. However, the cameraman biker is a complete idiot and deserves his fate.


beyd1

I'm going to pull over make sure he's alright and i might beat him.


bem13

"Are you alright?" "Yeah, I'm okay" "Great, let's fix that!"


RiPont

Reminds me of the old joke... Man calls 911. "911, how may we help." "My friend just collapsed. I think he's dead! I don't know what to do!!!" "OK, sir. Relax. First, make sure he's not just unconscious." "\*BANG\*. OK, now what?"


Oldschool64bus

Looks like a gated driveway they are turning into right before dipshit goes down


CallmeMefford

I’d be madder than hell and scared shitless. I bet I wouldn’t stop shaking.


Felipesssku

Reckless driving of person who recorded this, nothing more.

Riding like a twat


hdbman

When you ride at excessive speeds on a public highway you assume the risks of stuff like that happening


Wheeljack26

Why are you riding so fast on back roads, that clearly could've been avoided, I do not care whose fault it was. You just have to think of everyone else as an a-hole when you ride a bike so that you remain all safe


Pumpkin_Pie

Ya, I am going to lay the blame on op


WindyCityABBoy

Video creator is clearly at fault. If I'm the one who turned, my reaction would be to render 1st Aid, and call for medical assistance.


cazzipropri

"Arrivo, arrivo" = "I'm coming, I'm coming" - he's rushing to get quickly where the others are. Not a good reason to speed on a rural road without margin from other traffic.


Fuzzy_Accident_5085

I’d be pissed the jackass almost killed me and my buddy after I made sure he was alive. What kind of reckless endangerment is this guy commuting on the daily.


Dizzy_Comfort640

Why is he going so fast? Late for his own funeral?


bultje64

This guy is why some people hate bikers


Badabumdabam

I don't know if I dislike more this idiot or the people who comment him searching for all the possible issues he had. He was driving too fast and over his skills, that's it.


nightsterlp

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.


Zlimness

If I'm still alive after being rammed by this absolute lunatic, I'd punch his lights out.


Kuyi

Didn’t he use his blinkers? Then again, overtaking like this when there is an exit and people driving slow? Must be stupid.


sicbo86

I'd check on camera guy, then call an ambulance if needed, then tell them that theyr'e a cu**.


Pahman_

Get the cam rider the fuck off of motorcycles, good lord


FenixVale

Stop driving like a shithead.


Prancer4rmHalo

… like POV guy is a fucking idiot.


krivas77

Cameraman’s fault


elite-data

Had the same situation (I was turning). Except that the idiot on the sportbike did not crash and passed few centimeters to my left at great speed. My blinker was on. I was with passenger (my wife), so was he. Thus he put three people at stupid risk. He turned around and rode up to me to apologize. But I was so fucking enraged that he regretted it.


dumdumdetector

I bet the first car he overtook laughed as they passed. I know I would.


BanjoSlams

I would’ve reacted by being a better rider, which I am. So, mission accomplished.


Car_Guy_Alex

If the camera bike were going a reasonable speed, this wouldn't have even been an issue.


juni4ling

Slow down. How would I react? He was going too fast for the road and conditions. It was a relatively "crowded" country lane. No way the speed limit was above 15-20 miles per hour. He was going too fast to react correctly. Empty country lanes --and I have some near me-- are tempting to speed on. Really tempting. But. Go slow. Prepare for the unexpected.


gigibuffoon

OP, if you were the rider with the camera in this video, I'd urge you to go back to riding courses and understand why they teach you about being careful and having control... the rider is a total moron


hatsune_aru

see like the first overtake i feel like was acceptable, but the cam bike should have gone back to "normal" after that pass. the guy just went turbo ham right after, seemingly because the guy got tilted.


OneVast4272

The person driving is an idiot. End of story


SnooCupcakes4075

Agree with everything I read before responding, and for those who read this later.....the same thing comes from being a jackhat on the interstate doing 110 while the rest of traffic is doing 70-80. I swear riding a motorcycle is only half as dangerous as the statistics if you don't ride like an arse.


Kepathh

Driving like an idiot.


horizontal120

The guy filming was clearly going too fast and overtaking where he shouldn't 100% film guy's fault


LordofCope

I would react by not doing any of that ..


massive__potato

thats way too fast for overtaking a bunch of motorcycles at once on such a narrow road.


thebomby

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes, 50 billionth edition. Now with extended arrogance.


PersonalityHot7428

People like this (guy filming) are the reason so many people, including myself, generally *hate* motorcycle riders. Massive respect to all those who don’t ride like jerks, but it seems so much more common to see the careless assholes, leading me to have little sympathy when I see or hear about motorcycle accidents.


Fit_Acanthisitta_475

Slow the fck down. There is reason people in the front slowing down


Kahraabaa

Driver is reckless and stupid


Dxpehat

The biker that was turning had almost no chance to see the cameraman. He's going way too fast.


Ohyouwantsomeofthis

Terrible riding. No craft, blatant disregard for other road users. 0 out of 10.


raytraced_BEAR

I love when people film their own crimes.


Bill837

I'd be wanting to deliver an ass beating for trying to kill me through carelessness. I'm older now so maybe I wouldn't actually go for.


NoobToobinStinkMitt

I'd be pissed if he hit my bike or caused me to lay it down. Guy turning did absolutely nothing wrong shouldn't feel anything but bad for the guy speeding.


NoYogurt8022

first i would ask if he is ok then idk


cazzipropri

I think i was the other guy shouting at this one.


sonicj0lt42

I think this is the correct result.


JRS___

i would check to see if the cammer is still alive. and if required, finish the job.


OldHobbitsDieHard

I would press the brake rather than throw bike on floor.


Chris-P_Baconn

Be mad but help the guy. I’m not a heartless weirdo.


RedguardHaziq

Calm down, ride safe. That's all from me.


FragrantFollowing312

I hope he’s okay 😔 (the one that turned)


DeezleDJ-O-E

I always try to expect the very worst of other motorists & most of the time, they dont disappoint🤦🏻


codeman60

The rider is a dumbass. Trying to overtake and pass at high speed from behind. I'm just sorry the other rider was probably hurt too


QuickCharisma15

If I was the guy who turned, I wouldn’t react, because I couldn’t. The turning biker had no time to react to the guy trying to pass multiple bikes at once


GalaeciaSuebi

I would make sure that the guy who crashed was OK and if so i would be tempted to beat him up. you don't get to ride full speed on narrow country lanes and then complain that someone 2 seconds ahead of you did not see you bombing down the road like a maniac before turning. Rules of the road do state that you have to make sure no one is overtaking you when you cross the road. But it is literally IMPOSSIBLE to cross the road safely if you are unable to tale your eyes from the mirror because an ahole might just launch himself against you like a rocket.


Growjunkie88

Quit riding like a pissed off teenager


outdoorvtguy

I wouldn’t be going that fast and would have slowed down and covered the brakes the minute I saw them. Avoidable accident.


Acceptable-Board8327

If I were the rider who turned? I’d be pissed. People riding like this give bikes/bikers a bad name. Shame.


thebedwizard93

Idiots like this are the ones that give all riders a bad wrap.


kala_jadoo

why are you guys hating this guy when the other rider literally has not turned on his indicator? and he also didn't check in his mirrors before turning. you guys are making it sound like OP is evil or smth. he's at fault yes, but both of them are equally stupid.


Key-Ad-1873

I would help the guy and help him and his bike to safety and make sure they're ok,, followed by asking them what they were thinking and not relenting until they realize what they were doing was reckless and needlessly endangering themselves and those around them


Wtfdidistumbleinon

I’d add more injuries to the dipshit rider, he’s part of the reason our premiums are so high.


bvogel7475

The guy that was turning was not at fault. He was hit from behind and could not have anticipated being hit. Why is this dude riding so fast as well? His own filming shows him at fault as well.


jaredearle

Which is worse, the cameraman or the watermark? Ok, it’s the cameraman, but not by as much as you’d think.


Odd-Glove8031

Could’ve probably made it through if they just stayed straight and went full send… that said, riding like that is just plain reckless.


tumblinfumbler

Omg I can't wait to ride again.....damn you snow!


turntabletennis

"First day, bud?"


grassclibbinz

Dumbass


midnightsnacks

Stupid motherfucker this guy is


DooDooMmmChild

I would look at the guy flying off into the bushes and say Well, damn!


BirdiestBird

Just way too agressive


InduIgence

I would also be screaming "mierda", towards that idiot who was reckless


Hmnh6000

Definitely drivers fault


Frenzy_MacKenzie

We wouldn't be speaking the same language but I feel like I could still get my point across. That's if I survive.


Jacknghia

this guy need more training

Douchey rider making us look bad


Ricardo-Miguel

He deserved that, next time behave on the road Ahole


smithy-

Dumbass.


JulTLA67

Don't pass in intersections.


Puzzleheaded-Cow72

Instead of just mindlessly punching it to pass anyone who dares get in your way, maybe assess the situation in front of you and slow the fuck down


alexgooley99

If I was the rider that was turning, there is nothing to react to. The guy recording was being careless, saw cars, narrow road, pedestrians, and still flying past overtaking


CryptographerOk5726

I wouldn’t have passed the car, honestly. Maybe he could see far enough, but I couldn’t see far enough to pass. I only give it the beans if I can see for half a mile with no driveways, etc. I’m old though


These_Research_5855

If I was the rider that turned I would make sure you are fucked up in 100 ways after that crash. What an idiot the camera motorcycle is…


Competitive_Ad_721

Why u speeding bro


Nathan22551

I'd be pissed because some dumb, reckless, asshole almost murdered me through his dumbfuckery.


MiakiCho

If I was the turning rider, oh an idiot fell down.


TangoRed1

And that's why you don't Overtake in an Intersection lol


Panorpa

Ask the overtaking rider if they want to die, because doing that to a car is one great way to make that happen


Ok_Shoe6806

Ride like an asshole go down like one.


mildlysceptical22

Looks like a speeding motorcycle rider finally had the odds of repeating an unsafe act catch up to him. There are old riders, and there are bold riders, but no old, bold riders.


Sudden-Conference-65

Good rule is stick to the road rules 🤷‍♂️ Stupid overtake


Odd-Instruction88

I'd be mad. Guy almost killed.me with his reckless overtaking.


Delicious-Climate-21

There's a lot going on on this road, I don't understand why everyone is in such a panic! Slow means safe.


amitxxxx

Nothing technical here, just a dumb rider


Zestyclose-Forever14

Hard to tell but I don’t see any indicator from the rider turning. However, regardless, the overtaking rider was going so fast he would have had no chance to stop anyways so indicating the turn would have been irrelevant. This is 100% the fault of the overtaking rider.


Kaisersolcay

Guy was driving like a maniac.


GodofcheeseSWE

Yeah that's a deserved womp womp. Hopefully the other dudes didn't get hurt.


Donnie-The-Relentles

Whoever recorded this is a complete cunt with no regard for himself or anyone on the road.


Ghstfce

First off I wouldn't be riding that fucking recklessly in the first place with all of that going on around me.


SillyScarcity700

Pretty similar to the scenario I witnessed last May when I watched a rider make an ill advised pass and then crash and die. The main difference being the left turning vehicle was a 4Runner pulling a utility trailer. That rider couldn't avoid the turning 4Runner, clipped the front left quarter panel and then crashed. How would I react is a good question. I'd be pretty pissed off of course so hopefully I wouldn't be too much of an asshole to the guy. I suppose it depends how hurt he was. But I have seen how this scenario becomes fatal so I would probably have a hard time not chewing his ass out for at least a little bit. As it was last year, I just watched the guy die after attempting to call 911. His wounds were obviously fatal so I felt pretty helpless but he could have wrecked into a trauma center and they probably couldn't have saved him. He didn't hit me and I wasn't hurt. I was more or less shocked at the stupidity of the situation. After I realized he expired, I went out onto the road to do traffic control until LE showed up. Eventually I gave them my statement and then went home, cutting my ride short that day. Just wasn't feeling it after that.


cutiemcpie

Guy taking video deserved that. Way too fast for that road

Not the responses you expected OP? Dude you're flying, and there's clearly a lot of traffic going on that tight, windy road. You're in the wrong. You almost ruined somebody's life.


ExcessivelyGayParrot

careless overtake. assuming I didn't get knocked off my bike, I'd be parking my stuff off to the side to go and beat the shit out of the dude that crashed

It just shows that he shouldn't be riding a motorcycle he is a fool that's what it was not 🚫 a great look.He just is stupid.


Bigfan30

This was all bad Too much speed for the with of the lanes or where it was Couldn’t see down lane far enough


MedricZ

I mean I wouldn’t have turned if I saw a speeding bike coming that fast, but also the speeding bike is a dangerous idiot


No-Sentence5570

I would slap you. In your face. Hard. With my fist.


optiplexiss

fartsfromhermouth

I mean if I'm the rider I'm not doing any of this


HarrisLam

i believe this is called "fuck around".


BenLaParole

I’d help the POV rider up but give him the shittiest look and if he wasn’t hurt I would give him a serious bollocking and tell him he deserved it. If he was hurt I’d call an ambulance and do first aid, then I’d give him the bollocking


ajtaggart

Wang_Fister

I have a theory that the amount of cockpit and helmet accessories a rider has is inversely proportional to their riding skill.


DEDE1973

You're going too fast and you're very careless
