Watch this accident between a car and motorcycle

This guy simply does a cartwheel and walks away! Drivers really need to pay attention

The "seen all too often" car turns left , in front of bike ! Sure helped that the rider was a young ,agile 22 year old. That would hurt old farts like us

Safety course I took taught us to land that way, no big deal.

I actually saw that yesterday morning on the news and was amazed. I can only hope IF that ever happens to me I have the flexibility and luck to spin and land unharmed like that!

Well . . . . . . . . it appears that the motorcyclist was traveling at a higher rate of speed than he should have been, he doesn't appear to be slowing down, and the car was more than half way through the turn when the bike entered the intersection so one would think he had time to take at least some evasive action.

I'm not defending the car driver in this instance as we can't see "up the road" where the biker is coming from but it appears that the biker may be at least partially at fault here. . . .

The rider was also cited for not having an endorsement, which means he probably hasn't taken any rider safety courses. Despite being ticketed, he went out and bought another bike and rode off on his new burner. Hopefully he was served with a wake-up call, and he'll get the training he needs to be safe.
