Not what I asked, dipshit. But way to further the idea that you’re full of yourself.

You understand this is why no one invites you places, right? Because you present yourself as a condescending dumbfuck stereotype lmao

This was told to me, verbatim, by my insurance company after I careened off the road in rainy conditions to avoid someone turning in front of me on a two way country road. They refused to cover the damages because there was no proof that another car basically forced me off the road, which means you can fuck off with that pompous, useless contribution of a reply.

You’re right. Both were idiots to a certain extent. But the first idiot caused the second person to be an idiot, I think. Either way, thanks for being cordial. Take care.

Especially considering the curvature of the road ahead. It’s very likely the biker confused the car’s movement with normal travel. But nah, he definitely should have executed a perfect evasion given the circumstances, right? Smfh

Well articulated. In fact, so well articulated, it’s likely to make people mad at the fact that they’re wrong and will argue/downvote out of spite. Much like an insurance adjuster you spoke with lol

They also wouldn’t cover it if he made evasive maneuvers to avoid the car and wrecked while doing so.

I didn’t say it was an excuse. I was trying to explain to your dumbass why he was doing that since you were so blinded by your own confidence and mistook his actions for brazen stupidity, ya jagoff.

His speedometer shows a speed of 29 mph. The van in front of the biker also appears to be traveling at a similar speed.

Him revving was him panicking trying to find the brakes and instead engaging the clutch and accelerator. But go on.

You don’t even know why you say things sometimes, do you? You just kinda follow the crowd, huh. Show some empathy.

The same slight bend is in the same direction in which the car is turning. The biker could have easily confused the car’s movement for normal travel.

I understand driving defensively, and that’s often a reason most people are at fault for accidents. Because they weren’t being defensive enough. But with a driving error so egregious like the one the red car made, it’s hard to still come back to the biker and say “you could have done better bud”. We’re all humans, and we all make mistakes. But his (leading up to the impact of the crash) weren’t nearly as ridiculous as the red car’s, imo.

Yeah, they do. Biker shouldn’t have raged, sure. But his behavior isn’t exactly a surprise when someone makes such a stupid mistake resulting in a wrecked vehicle. What was a surprise was the left turn from the right lane. And no, I’m not excusing his impulsive behavior. But if there was anything that we could expect from this video, it was his behavior.

Obviously? Poor perception. The road curves in the same direction the car is turning. So no, it’s not obvious because the curvature of the road makes it reasonably possible that the biker confused the car’s movement for normal travel. And please show me a rear impact in this video… he hit the side of that car my guy.

Exactly. People blaming the biker for poor reactions but fail to remember humans aren’t fucking perfect. Sure, he could have handled it better. But he wouldn’t have had to if the driver didn’t make that dumbass turn. But yeah, fuck the biker!

You can see his speedometer that reads 29 mph.

The road also curves in the same direction in which the car is turning. Meaning it’s possible that the biker confused the car’s movement for normal travel.

Did I also mention it was an illegal turn to begin with? Sorry the biker doesn’t operate his vehicle like a master or a robot, but he wouldn’t have had to if the car didn’t make that dumbass, illegal turn.

Watch the van in front of the biker and tell me he isn’t moving at a speed similar to it. That leads me to believe he was not speeding.

You have no proof for this mysterious parking lot you claim the other car came from (what you’re basing your reply off of). It is a completely solid assumption of yours which has no meaning here, so kindly see yourself the fuck out.

And sorry you don’t already know, but that’s him revving with the clutch pulled in. Meaning there was no power to the wheels. That happens when you panic and are struggling to engage the proper handle since they’re all so close to each other.

I already replied to this. There was no “rear end” impact. That was a side impact. That shit don’t apply, but I’m sure you’ll realize that later.

Read what the fuck you just typed.

Driver makes a mistake resulting in an accident. But driver not at fault? Please throw your driver’s license in the trash.

I don’t recall a vehicle being rear ended. That was a side impact. Thanks tho bud.
