I saw this on an LB article. It shows it can happen to any of us & she is a racer in the US.

Not a nice experience - its no wonder after accidents it can be so confusing. 101 people talking to you all at once.

The strange thing is, what actually happened? I mean why did the car brake like that and then turn though 180 degrees? That's just plain weird!

From the stuff said in the forum posts, he seemed to speed up then the car stopped and he nearly went into the car but turned to the left while all wheels were locked up.

Aparently he claimed that he was stopped when she hit him. But the police just lauged when the saw her vid as that was proof that it was his fault & not hers..

Looks like an old car without ABS.

I saw that on Visor Down a few days ago. Very disturbing isn't it? I wonder if the police considered raising the charges against the driver who was obviously a lying bas*ard also?

Where do you get he turned to the left? All I can see is the front of the car spin out to the right?

That had to be poor brakes at the front or tyres in dreadfull condition as the road looks perfectly dry.

What was horrible was watching the rider's escape route growing ever smaller until the inevitable impact.

So glad she got of lightly.

I think that was the most worrying thing. There must come a point where you might want to hit the car square on and go over the bonnet - watching the vid in slow motion the gap narrows I thought she was bound to have here left leg crushed by the impact. But I know I would have done the same as her, go for the gap and hope
