Yeah I mean fair enough if he was oncoming on the wrong side of the road or undertaking the op but that was just misjudgement.
RB 182 FF
I was kind and said fool.... It doesn't bode well for a long and incident free biking experience making very simple errors such as this.... I imagine everyone has had an experience of this kind in a car but that's due to blind spots/A pillars and reflections off glass etc.... the biker hasn't really got an excuse for this except for being stupid... and on a bike it only takes one stupid moment for catastrophic results..........!
on many occasion i have been flashed..(not in that way ha) when its not safe to go..they keep flashing..i just move them on, back to the video..the car was at fault too,he cant see whats coming up in the other lane..the biker should of moved forward slowly, so he could view the other lane,gone when it was clear..why did the car stop? the bike wasn't at a marked junction , just a drive way to somewhere i think.. anyway no one got hurt..just hope all involved learn next time(not the clio driver).. and what cam did the clio driver use,i might get one.
On the way to work encountered another dickhead biker - intermittent traffic whilst passing a school (one lane with cars parked - fairly main road), difficult to get through - biker in front of me [I let him past - see above], tried to overtake a car passing parked cars on the left, bailed out and nearly hit the kerb. So impatient to try to overtake someone, who was themselves passing parked cars. He then overtook this person a little further up the road, cutting in front due to oncoming cars. Lady in oncoming car, who he nearly hit (looked quite hot incidentally), looked back to see if he got flattened, as she was clearly surprised by his actions. Amazing thing is this prick had a camera on his helmet. What for? I thought they were for 'protection' - protection for other road users' perhaps.
i hate them clio 172 drivers.. they try to go fast because they cant afford a 182.. to make up for the 10 bhp they dont have..ha..basically i think every driver is a knob and out to get me.. i treat them all with equal contempt..
Hard to confirm it's a 125 due to lack of L plates, unless the poor sod is on a restricted license.
I think the point people are trying to get to is that he just rode out rather than creeping slowly in front of the BMW without taking a proper look for any other oncoming traffic.

The quality is not the best but you can get a idea.

Don't take this the wrong way, but......... No s**t. Like I've said its an accident, they happen. I've done things on the road that could of ended up badly. But I take them as a life lesson. I know my bikes, and I'd say it's a 125. If it's a 125 probably got a young lad on it, meaning he has a lot to learn on the road. Read messages before commenting, makes you look less silly
its looks ok,, is it hard wired in? it looks ok, there are so many on the market,dont know what to get..pity they dont have a back camera linked with them..

I'm afraid with this shape is only one direction.
i meant a separate camera that is linked to the front..no one seems to do them..
Clio Sport 182
That was my thoughts on the video, inexperienced rider with no front l plate on a 125 CBR/R thing
they wont be linked..and will run separately,that means 2 memory cards, and 2 what every you need to view them on line..and 2 power sources..
Clio Sport 182
there are a lot of cameras out there but this one was the only that i could find that is hiding well behind the rear view mirror.
this is my diy if you want to hard wire it

Does it really matter if they're recording onto two cards? If you have a crash it will take all of 10 seconds to swap the cards over in your card reader so you can download the two files you need. As for two power sources, no biggy really. Won't be any harder to wire in than a dual camera system, just that you'll be routing a cable with just power instead of power AND data.
I crossed the road the other day. Walked out behind a bus that was in a jam. I should have stopped and looked what was coming the other way but didn't. Queue the Mrs shouting "look out!!" etc etc.
Moral of the story, s**t happens.
I was thinking about breasts at the time.
