Here's a Motorcycle head-on with another Motorcycle - if you're interested...

One guy passes a bus on the wrong side of the road around a double blind corner and BLAM!

If you feel this is something you don't need to see, don't watch it. It's not bloody or anything. Just that, some people don't like looking at crashes (I'm one of them - but this was presented to me as "look at this crazy rider" and I expected to see some crazy city riding not a head-on)...

is he ? looks like the rider should have seen him changing lanes, and corrected LEFT instead of following right (target fixation?) and colliding.

i didn't notice any cars that would have blocked the motorcyclist's line of sight.

we've all seen this kind of thing happen. i'm not defending the driver, not a bit. the rider may have been unattentive too. looked like he had a good deal of time to correct if he wasn't speeding.

flame me if you like.
