TheSaffer Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 Dumb Van Driver Causes Motorcycle CrashI'm torn. Is the van driver a dumbass for cutting across the lane or is the biker a dumbass for trying to sneak by? Trick question, the biker is always the retard.Get humor videos at NothingToxic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderator Goff Posted March 7, 2009 Moderator Share Posted March 7, 2009 The biker was going WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY to fast I think the WVM had already begun his turn before he biker appeared - the road looks like its quite winding - there was possible another bend behind the camera where the biker appeared from Still - the biker was riding like a twat IMHO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How can any of us act as Judge and Jury without ALL of the facts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Errrrmm...the speed he was riding at possibly? No we cant see all the road - but his speed is a major factor. Im not acting like judge and jury - i said that it was IMHO...........and thats all it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gas up - Let's Go! Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 It's difficult to properly asses the speed becasue of the poor quality, and the lack of markers, however; Looking at the video, the bike covers the length of the van plus the length again in 1 second, so to er on the side of caution I'm going to suggest that the bike is covering around 30 meters per second. (the van will be around 5 meters long) Now some mathmatics; At 30 meters per second, he is covering 1800 meters per minute 30 x 60 = 1800 1800 x 60 = 108000 Meters per hour (meters per minute x minutes in an hour) So I would say, that the bike is traveling at 108kmh Given that 1mph is 0.62137kmh that puts the bike at 67.11 mph. (108 x .062137) Always looks faster when you look through a normal lens as the bike clears the frame too quickly and your eyes don't adjust fast enough. The sound of the bike too will infulence what people percieve as going fast. For what it's worth, I think the biker over reacted (and who wouldn't faced with a head on with a van?), and over corrected. but it's very difficult to make an informed assesment given the lack of fact. Maybe a more experienced rider would have got away with it........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
