Pulled over to change his pants. At least the caber had the decency to put himself in the ditch & not kill the rider & probably his buddy.

And thats what happens when you try passing at an incline/decline.... See that way too much now.. People that are clearly blind at a turn cause they don't know how to make a left turn properly and pray no one is coming while they make the turn. People also do that at incline/declines very often up north.. Scares the **** out of me every time...

Jesus christ!

Car tried an illegal pass on a double yellow line and nearly killed the motorcyclist and his buddy.
They are both very Lucky to be alive.

Carload of girls. One of the passengers would have eaten that bike too, probably the trailing bike as well. Effing lucky. That was a what do I do moment. Stay here, move left and hope they dont try to cut back? Ditch it? **** in the pants that day for sure.

 

[Macs]

Just watching that I might need to change my pants...

 

[2stroker]

Wow, I almost experienced that today on Mississauga Road.

 

[Red_Liner740]

It would take all of my self control not to turn around, pull em over and drag the driver out through the window....

Glad the rider is ok, hope the idiot driver skidded into the grass and crashed or something. That's the only way they'll ever learn.

What immediately came to mind was King Rd, between Weston and Hwy 27. On its own, it's not really dangerous, but there's a section or two where I'm always wondering the back of my mind if someone is trying to pull off a pass in the other direction.

Obviously you didn't watch the video to the end. The car is in the ditch and looks like it's rolled a couple of times.

Holy crap !!!

With the speed they hit the gravel, I'd be surprised if they regained control.

Are you riding a black zx with one green bulb on the left side in where the headlights are? Reason I ask is that that's the way I take to work every morning and just wondering if that is you. If it is I have waved to you many a time.........no homo.

 

[N3WMAN]

All parties involved are lucky to be alive.

Nope, not me.

 

[LePhillou]

My eyes went :confused2: and my jaw went :tongue9:

Hope those 2 minutes the driver wanted to save were worth it.

 

[Paul1000RR]

God damn!

Thought about that situation multiple times when out riding in the country, and even had a tractor trailer pull the same **** on me. Always figured i'd go for the ditch...
