Undertake with head in the clouds

[phatstorage]

How he didn't see this coming I don't know, but clearly not leaving enough room by noob biker and knobber in his box swinging out like he's driving an 18ton truck. It's the alarmed noise of the inevitable impact that he makes that cracks me up.

Someone has just raped his rear brake.

No audio on my machine but I got the gist.
Bad road position from car.
Yet still indicating left and garage entrance wouldn't tempt me to undertake like bike tried.

Really shitty lane control from the car driver, changing lanes to the right when indicating left let the biker think it was nothing more than an un-cancelled indication but definitely potato-riding.

Biker is a moron, indicator AND brake lights! I would have seen that a mile off AND I reckon had I ignored it I could have stopped in time, less whiny noises more front brake.

Shit car driving but the bikers not helping himself IMO
The car was indicating left and you see its brake lights come on
approaching a garage entrance.
You dont need psychic powers to guess maybe its going in there
and if the rider held back a bit, he could have carried on happily
PMSL at the audio
"You went.... you went wide!"
LOL, gotta be a new rider

He learnt a lesson there, no harm done due to his protective puffy faggola rain/wind guards.

Rider sounded genuinely surprised before the collision, like he was daydreaming.
If you're prone to surprises while on the road, maybe take up public transport.

[Wafer_Thin_Ham]

Typical GS rider.

Probably returning from an adventure to the organic farm shop.

Car driver did act like he was driving a truck, but what on earth was the biker even thinking?

[recman]

[EazyDuz]

Haha such a funny sound he made. Maybe the car driver hadnt owned an estate for very long and feels the need to truck turn everywhere

He had a proper British rant to himself - "Oh...F'king dammit" . Definitely day dreaming, on both parts by the looks of it.

There are some people who you just want to shout "what the fuck were you expecting??" to.

I would have given a larger gap and been on the brake much much earlier, as soon as i saw the brake lights come on.

[Sload]

Blatantly obvious the car swung right for a tight left. On a side note I think that is down the road from me.

silly billy
I think I'd probably not upload that and admit it was me

[Skudd]

I do have some sympathy with the bike as the car wholly goes in to the right hand lane and after just coming off the round about you could expect a left signal still to be indicating and for the car to be going straight ahead. However with the garage being just after turn and the probability of vehicles taking wide turns into easy to get into left turns. The bike shouldn't have been so eager to undertake the car and should have been more observant.

Newbie. An lesson to be learnt.

[Llama-Farmer]

Riding on autopilot I think, because I could see that coming a mile off.

I don't know why people are blaming the driver, he was indicating and braking. You need to go slightly wide for a tight turn like that or you'll run over the kerb. Maybe he went wider than necessary, but he was indicating correctly and braking, it was completely obvious what his intentions were and what his next actions were gonna be.

Perhaps the people here blaming him are the ones who would also have attempted the undertake, in which case it's their own roadcraft that needs improving, not the drivers.

completely the bikers fault, but why the hell do people do the swing out and back in thing for 90 degree turns. I see it pretty regularly in my local area.
