There’s a channel called MotoClips UK. It’s a catalogue of what not to do. 80% of clips are of horrific riders and awful choices. They’re usually followed up by a slew of abuse, arguments and gesticulations, too.

It's really stupid to ride there. But also, in my country, car drivers are educated to make a shoulder glance before switching directions. It's a very important part of driving a car in full sight and being aware of your surrounding. So there is a little reason to be pissed on car drivers, if they never check the blind spot.

@elanazoro I remember the school lesson about it here in the US but man it feels like I can count on one hand I've seen it be done while riding. A skill people forget or take advantage of blind spot monitoring to be lazy.

Inexperience can get you hurt, but ego gets you dead

Thanks for the video! A long time ago someone told me "in a motorcycle crash, it doesn't matter who's fault it is, the one who's getting hurt is always you". And I like your explaining here. Always try to avoid accidents. Don't stand your ground. Just survive to ride another day.

Top video. When the gravel clip came up, my immediate thought was “get everything sorted before you start the turn”. Make sure you’re in the right gear, indicator on, brakes on, get ready for observations just before you turn. Making adjustments through turns will upset the bike. Looks like we had a case of target fixation, too. Rule number 1 on a bike is: Regardless of who has priority, you lose in a fight.

​@@skoorchignat I usually do what the Yamaha rider did. Braking, no swerving, then continue my riding, no need to honk, yell, nor rev in anger. If I am shocked after a close call, I stop by the road side, wait for a minute to calm down, then proceed the journey with a clear mind.

I think this rider at least tried to do something which resulted in reducing the damage: slowing down. I see many riders turn without slowing down. I admit I sometimes do that ✋ And after this video, I will try not to do that again😅

Great analysis. Too many riders think they are strong and mighty, however on a bike you are weak and vulnerable. Your only pro's are agility and speed (of breaking). A defensive riding approach is a must to survive.

Love your reviews! My folly: country 2-lane empty road....missed my turn, so continued to next turn onto dirt road, executed a magnificently controlled U-turn and slowly rolled up to a stop sign and stopped to revel in my skill.....placing my foot down, not fully realizing I was at the bottom of an upward slope, my foot simply contacted free air and the Concours followed my foot all the way down! A friendly passerby assisted with getting upright again. 😂

More of this! Love your stuff. Your videos and courses helped me get my license and keep on learning. Thanks for sharing your knowlege.

My favourite: “It’s not even an accident… it’s more like.. destiny!!” 😂😂 brilliant!

We’re like vampires. Good one!

Great explanation of what exactly happened and how to avoid mistakes. It is one thing to see these crash videos and try and figure out yourself. Your explanation of why it happened is great.

At 60 years old I am planning to get back into riding now now children are getting older. Your explanations are precise and to the point; this most useful tips I have found on KZread so far.

Thank you sir, may I have another? I watch motorcycle crash videos to try to learn and figure out what I would have done differently but having you do it is even better. Hope you will continue with this.

Andre has the best reactions!!! When you practice motocontrol!!! You can’t become incompetent rider!!! For the best rider will always practice motocontrol

I think you are pretty spot on. For the shout lady: if you put yourself in the *blind* spot... don't expect to be seen!!!

When in doubt, buy more time to decide by slowing down before next decision is forced too quickly.

I'm new to moto riding (one month!) Watching these videos I kept saying out loud (like anyone could hear me 😂) "Dude is way too fast" or "Um, this looks like a bad idea." I've learned so much from you, thank you thank you thank you.

This is a good channel Even when it's clearly the cars fault, it's your responsibility to make sure you stay alive on the road.

11:10 I was taught to overtake or don't overtake but never sit in a lane next to another vehicle. Hang back until you have space in front to complete the move in one go. If you don't have power in the bike to get clear, (looks like a lower power bike here) then just stay back. I would never sit next to a car like this.

I’m glad you reviewed this video. I find myself watching these videos yelling at the screen because these idiots don’t know how to ride. It’s ok to be a new rider but ride accordingly. These IDIOTS give all bikers a bad name and are the reason people talk about how “Dangerous” motorcycles are.

Agree to all you say in this video. Also, for the first guy, I think this is about the path he selected to go. He might have gained some lean angle (wider turn, less lean angle) if he had initiated the turn a bit later and a bit more to the right. Look at the guy behind him who is filming. He is actually turning more to the right to fulfill the previous turn more before initiating the next turn farther to the right. I think the problem for the guy crashing already started in the previous turn that he should have initiated later and farther to the left and also enden farther to the right to prepare for the curve he failed in. My two cents!

Ride according to the road and visibility. Too fast into a turn means heavy leaning at the worse moment, too fast in general is simply asking for it. Ask me how I know :D

In Carno42's case he lingered too long in the right car's blind spot. I would usually stick to the left side of the car so that he sees me in the mirror or if not I can easily just split lane once he merges to the left.

If you look at it again you will notice that it was a brief moment where the rider moved across to get a look at the traffic ahead. For the rider the bike would have disappeared into a blindspot. It may be an unpopular opinion but this is the precise situation where an exhaust that's louder than a sewing machine would have prevented an incident.

@@MrBCRC Doubt it, the sound would be coming from the back into a reasonably soundproofed car, also probably the radio is on / the driver is chatting with passengers / driver is on their phone / has hearing problems...). Better assume noone can hear you. I ride but I also have a car and very rarely hear any "loud pipes". Mostly annoying the pedestrians or revving at traffic lights (that one's really usefull isn't it ...).

Super helpful as a new rider, learning from the mistakes of others. My 86 y/o mothers says, “Some people can learn from the mistakes of others and some people must feel”. Feel the crash!

9:53 That's the Paris Périphérique, a highway that surrounds Paris. Lane splitting is only legal in some parts of France (Paris is legal) when traffic is slower than 50 km/h, basically when there is congestion. He shouldn't have been splitting lanes.

Agreed 100% Between here and Ryan F9 it's all you need.

One thing you didn't mention in the video starting at 11.00... it's a bit her fault as well. She keeps hanging around in the blind spot of the driver.

love your videos as you seem to talk from common sense and not blame it everyone who 'hates bike riders'. i have been riding for 40 years and one accident at age 18 was my fault like some of these in the video. while sitting at home with a broken leg, it just became common sense on how to avoid crashes and cars doing what cars do. but as we say, common sense isnt all that common.

Glad to see someone properly dissecting the mistakes made in these examples. There was another channel that used to do this kind of thing, but now it's just devolved into clickbait nonsense.

Very appropriate notices. God bless you, guys. Please add more new content about riding mistakes and considerable analysis for new bike riders. Hope to see again

Good job pointing out those bad riders and mistakes. I am fed up with seeing moto channels showing off "bad drivers", and seeing angry motorcyclists flip off, swear etc. others, when they themselves have 50% of the blame. Aggressive riding and lane splitting do not cope well with the lack of visibility riders need to face. I mean, you can do so, but at your own risk. At least don't make a big deal out of it. And yes, I am currently learning to ride a motorcycle as well. I hope I'll never make such bad decisions.

Great video, entertaining, informative, thanks.

Love your videos especially while I’m doing my license rn I can avoid stupid and easy mistakes!!

The second rider with the truck had a protest mentality. He was so busy protesting, he couldn't focus on what he was doing. Protesting makes you lose focus.

So glad you are making these videos. I hate all the videos floating around of the road rage against "cagers" who want to kill us. It's all so ridiculous and if you ride you will run into these things all the time. We as riders must be skilled and aware It's just the deal end of story.

Overtaking on right side if you have right-hand traffic and less than three lanes on same direction is forbidden in many countries. I would say that overtaking by right lane is improper most of times.

I love your down to earth and logical approach. So many riders arte the cause of their own accidents. It's unbelievable. The one where they try and stand "their" ground against a merging car always has me laughing. Good luck with that ;)

A lot of riders have this assumption that car drivers should be looking out for them at all times. Yeah, no. As a long time car driver and a recent motorcycle rider, thank you for calling out on this attitude. Unless you live somewhere in Asia/Africa/South America, cars make like 99.9% of the traffic on the roads. No car driver is ever looking out for you because they simply don't encounter you on the road most of the time. Not to mention that until I got my motorcycle training I had no clue how different riding is to driving - controls, braking, cornering, behavior on the road.. it was a very humbling experience for me who though "if I can drive a car and operate a plethora of different kind of machinery, a puny motorcycle should be child play" boy, was I wrong. I can assure you most drivers don't have a clue either. In addition, cars keep getting bigger and with bigger blind spots. As a result any sort of ridding style that is not defensive and not with the assumption that you're invisible to most of the traffic is going to result with you eventually being involved in a crash even if you weren't technically at fault. Personally I'd rather be the guy at 5:00 who goes about his day after a near miss, than to stand my ground risking getting involved in a crash just to prove someone else wasn't paying enough attention.

Perfect analysis, I watch these type of videos a lot. 90-95% ish of the time, the motorcycle rider is at fault, excessive speed, improper riding technique, improper reaction to a situation (horn honking, rev bombing, cussing) instead of braking and or swerving.
