Dude obviously ran wide in the corner.  Riding beyond his abilities.  Luckily, it looks like he walked away.  Maybe he'll be smarter next time.

Either that or target fixation.  "Oh, no!  A car!  I hope I don't..." BAM!

BTW, that sneaker didn't stay on his foot very long.   Wear your gear, kids!

SLOW THE HELL DOWN!

Rest assured, that cage driver will be bad-mouthing motorcycles and motorcyclists for the rest of his or her living days. :o

Missing some proper riding gear for such unexpected occasions.  NO Boots, or Knee/Shin Armor.  Never leave home w/out em'.

That's a good example of the morons I rail about who have to buy the fastest bike on the block, try to ride like Eddie Lawson even though they don't know how to, and give us a bad name.  Notice the double yellow lines he ignored.  They are there for a reason!  Darwinism in practice.  :2guns:

All I can think of is Dane Cook and the skit where the guy is power walking and he thinks in his head but can't get it out "you're about to be struck by a car"  Guy gets up "Has anybody seen my shoes, I kicked them off in a fit of joy"    :icon_eek:

No, he quite clearly hit a Chevy that was staying in its own lane and minding its own business...

2 things... 1st either he was high siding it to avoid the car or he doesn't know how to enter a corner right.  And two better the side then the front of the car.  He could of been hurt ALOT worse.  Least this crash there was no casualtys and it taught him a few lessons about riding.

Or listen to Louis CK, the guy that originally did the joke before Dane stole it.  Dane sucks.

1. Ouch
2. Funny cause he is apparently ok.
3. Darwinism requires that he die before reproducing.
