Bike crash (warning: distressing video)

[Professor]

Don't know whether this has been previously posted.

Biker crashes in Moscow on 13 May and receives severe injuries, but the car that caused crash doesn't stop:

Link removed pending Mod approval

Latest reports indicate that the police have tracked down the driver of the car.

This video is flagged up by YouTube as being distressing and needing a sign in to view it; therefore, to me, that seems like not U rating.
I'm going to remove the link for now, but I'm not going to sign in to see it, as I don't want to witness another's pain. If another Mod wants to view it and deem it acceptable, then it can be reinstated

Careful Paul, or it will be "It puts the Lotion on its Skin then puts it in the basket" time again :p

Calm down boys, I'm only thinking of the children and kittens

[Dave20046]

I did mean to add that having viewed it I think you made the right call Messie.

[Bordtea]

Sooo err when do we get to see it ;)

I think that should be 'mistressful' ;)

Sooo err when do we get to see it ;)

When someone braver/more important/stroppier* comes along ... maybe

Well as its all in Russian on the Youtube page, its quite hard to find by yourself.

TBH its probably nothing you really want to see.

Remember the old internet saying...

I can understand watching a video of a guy being knocked off a moped and landing like a cat on his feet, but can't understand wanting to see a video of a biker receiving severe injuries, but each to their own.

[Paul the 6th]

ok well everyone could maybe watch this disgusting video in the meantime then

Some of us saw Keith_d in his underpants at AR.

And as for what poor little Brock witnessed, I'm wondering if I should pay for his counselling.

[Paul the 6th]

Was it keith_d in no underpants?

[squirrel_hunter]

Is this the one on the Motorway type road where the car sideswipes the bike taking him off and the car carries on with the bike following along the guard rail?

Yes, this is the one.

This incident was followed by rideouts in Moscow, with bikers demanding that the police investigate. One cannot make out the number plate on the video but in the end police examined traffic camera footage along the route.

Sorry if I offended some of you peeps.

[squirrel_hunter]

I viewed this elsewhere and thought it might be doing the rounds as it were.

However its interesting to get a little context behind it, thanks Prof. Any more updates on the rider, the protests or the Police investigation?

[yorkie_chris]

It is worth watching these sorts of videos only if there is something to learn about how it could be avoided.

[Professor]

The biker survived but lost a leg.

Here are some videos from rideouts in support of the injured biker:

As to learning something from this particular crash, I guess rolling back the throttle would be the obvious lesson we need to learn (when a car is trying to place itself in your spot on the road).

As to the police investigation, it is still at an early stage. News reports state only that the driver has been identified and give his age and town of residence. The police do not disclose the driver's version of events.

[Dave20046]

Seen the video now, that's pretty phucking awful - almost got took out the same way last time I rode could hear my front tyre squealing as the car passed what felt like under my chin. Armo's never look forgiving ...and nowI know for sure (ferking leathers thread as well).

Hope the driver sees a bit of justice, for leaving the scene if nothing else.

[Mikey10]

saw the vid :pukel:
in the denfense of car driver not that there should be any but the bike rider was'nt doing himself any favours riding like that. :???:

[Fallout]

Here's one we can all laugh(?) at because (a) nobody gets hurts, (b) it's a moped rider who is a complete fool, and (c) it's just so embarrassingly bad.

Deep fried I hope.

Of course, with a sprinkling of Southern spices

We didnt see the lead up to the collision, but from what I did see I would say 50/50 to be honest.

[Winder]

The best of the best are the videos of yanks trying to ride their massive cruisers up a ramp into the back of a van and getting it oh so wrong.
