Helmet Cam Footage

[Babba]

I like helmet cams.

Hopefully, most of us will never experience an RTC but with helmet cams becoming more & more popular we have the ability to learn from others mistakes. Every experience is a learning experience.

A riding buddy has pointed me to this one, we're having a competition in the pub later to see if we can spot everything they did right & everything they did wrong.

That was painful to watch. I couldn't believe that she just got up and walked away after that one.

Wrong side of the road.

Wow, it appeared the car in front pulled out and didn't speed up (typical cars on junctions) and they both pulled out thinking the car would have.

Agree with above, surprised she got up and walked about. A big factor to that will be because she had all her gear on!

The driver of the car who hit her was wearing flip flops as well I think, bell end.

The thing the man did wrong was not taking off his helmet and smashing the car drivers head in with it...the car was very far away and should of had plenty of time to see them.

I like how she did not start crying until she saw the front of her bike. How the hell you don't see someone from that distance is beyond me. I'd have probably lost it with the guy in the car.

looking at it a few times I'm wondering if the sun was in the driver's eyes? together with her wearing white it's possible he didn't see her.....no excuse of course. Also, she was painfully slow out of the junction.

[WannaBeDude]

If yha gonna piss about near that car, be quick and off up the road ... or bimble about and get run over ..

Or wait back for your turning opportunity and safer pull out.

Not looked at footage too much, the car no doubt has a lot to answer for, but for me, its all about avoiding said cages.

Fuck the Sun.

Driver was speeding no doubt. I hate this shit and I hope he was done up like a kipper.

Poor girl, glad she was OK.

Whilst yes I suppose the car is at fault.. I can't get over how fucking slowly they pulled out.

Straight out and accelerate well up to the speed limit and there wouldn't have been a problem!

Hindsights a bitch and all that Still looks like she's going to be ok

i got friends that drive like this i used to sit in the car with them when i was younger and wed laugh driving round cliff edge roads at 120 when i look back now i think what twats we were and how much of a fucking cunt he is and he still drives this way the prick in residential back roads and wherever else .
i dont know about all these health and safety and road regulations they have been trying to put in to play for bikes .
id like to see them done for cars and see them all capped out the factory with engines that cant go faster than the countries speed limit and engine mods outlawed .
but they should leave bikes alone
(LEAVE ALONE)

I'm assuming it was her boyfriend/husband filming...can you imagine watching your girlfriend/wife getting obliterated like that. holy shit

[TomGT]

I was impressed by the camera mans First Aid, he eliminated any danger to himself, lay her down and undid her chin strap, she decided to remove her helmet, which is an absolute no-no unless it is absolutely necessary.

Less than impressed with the ambulance crew, she should have been immobilised at the scene, before being cleared by a CT scan at hospital.

I've treated many people on the ambulances at motocross who could have easily severed their spinal chord if we hadn't have immobilised quickly...

Can they not tell though when they have damage to their vertebrae? There must be pain associated surely?

[chris-red]

We need to know the speed limit of that road, to be fair they pulled out far too slowly.

That was awful to watch
I think the armour she wore did alot in preventing a more serious injury. Really surprised she just got straight up
