Video request: Guy who almost get hit by a lorry.

[Gazz]

I am looking for that video, where a guy pulls away from a standstill and there is a lorry right up his arse as he accelerates away. Think it might have been filmed at a bike cafe or something if I remember right.

I have searched on here and on youtube but cant seem to find it.

Cheers

[Al.]

I've never seen the clip but would like to!

I posted about this a few months ago.
Most people on here thought it was acceptable, but I still think its crazy

He does it because there's a line of cars behind the truck to wait for, and double white lines for a good way too.

The camera could be foreshortening the apparent gap a bit too.
It wouldn't have been a good thing to stall or twitch from spinning the wheel would it

Never seen it before but it was a complete anticlimax

You can see him clearly look in his mirrors, he accelerates away quick enough to not be a problem.

Agree...I don't think it was that bad. he kept left too so if he had stalled or whatever I'm sure the lorry would have avoided him.

...and what could possibly be wrong with leaving your life in the hands of a lorry driver you've never met

I have pulled out from a junction doing a right hand turn onto a main road, seen a massive line of cars following a 50mph numpty and pulled into the right lane next to the person at the front of the queue and hoofed the bike and pulled infront (if that makes sense) the person in the car shat themselves but I was very quickly infront of them.

I havent done that for ages Dodsi as Om worried what the car drivers will do if they think Im pulling in front of them! Mind you its a fantastic use of the power and good illustration as to why nothing less than 100 horsepower is any good!

I think the angle makes it look worse than it was. But no one mentions the fact that the utter bellend doing the filming stands in the middle of a busy road while shooting that bit of footage. I reckon he was in more danger than the biker.

i think he said points didnt he? i hope he did.

yeh it was a little fool hardy but come on with the power available on bikesthese days your at 60 in 3 seconds. i would have probably waited though then took the lorry when i had chance. but hey ho, each to their own.
