Re: Hard hitting bike video launched

This clip made me very sad. Like [MENTION=36240]stefanm[/MENTION] rightly stated we have faster bikes on the road in today's day and what adds insult to injury is the inefficiency with which our RTOs conduct 2 wheeler tests. Just because one knows how to ride a motorcycle doesn't mean he/she knows how to ride it on public road.
I really hope this video serves as an eye opener. My early morning commute will be definitely be a few knots slower.

Re: Hard hitting bike video launched

I have to commute to the office early in the morning. That is the most dangerous time for a biker per me. All the heavy vehicles drivers are drowsy and all the small vehicles drivers are either too busy or reckless. I don't go above 50kmph. It takes 4-5 minutes extra to reach the office. I'm ok with that. And not only the motorists, the bikers are at fault most of the time for over speeding.

Re: Hard hitting bike video launched

you are right..we need to ride slowly due to increasing number of vehicles on the road & this video is really an eye opener..a lot of times we ride recklessly enjoying the wind but nobody knows which ride will eventually be our last ride.. Ride safe Guys..

Re: Hard hitting bike video launched

God! Thats terrible!! Poor chap paid the price for Car driver's mistake. Agreed he was overspeeding near junction but still was the car driver blind? Its an eye-opener for sure that life can end in a second on bike if you are not careful.
I've been rear ended by a bus last year when the signal was red and i was waiting at the line. The moron bus driver thought he will jump the signal but he saw a car nearby and swerved and hit me at aprox 30kmph. Although the speed of bus was only 30 the impact to two wheeler was huge, these busses are monsters, the rear wheel of my bike was crushed & believe me guys you have no idea how dangerous these big vehicles are. I was thrown close to 8 ft in air and landed almost 15ft away from my bike. When i got into my senses and realised what was happening, the bus had stopped on my bike's rear wheel and public were thrashing the driver. Good that he got what he deserved. I'm still fighting case in court and our laws are really funny. He was let go after 500rs fine, heard from police that even if its death case the fines are ridiculously low. So not sure if now that driver drives carefully or he thinks even if i hit someone only 500rs fine so lets continue roadracing.

Re: Hard hitting bike video launched

He would probably be thinking about the second case . I came from a long trip yester night only. Believe me the bus which i traveled was in hit or miss situations with atleast or more than 50 vehicles inside 5 hrs of its running time. That makes want to not buy any vehicle (i currently don't own one and am planning to buy soon) . Even if we follow the damn rules the other driver/rider would most probably be rash driving, there is no guarantee of us returning to our place in good condition. The newer technologies are actually paving ways to increase casualties(talking about the performance upgrades and jugaad DIY's). And on top of that the traffic law system is damn foolish. The RTO only cares about their revenue and not implementing awareness among drivers. All they ask is fine for any accident no awareness, no license ceases no nothing. To sum it all up the number of vehicles onroad is also increasing rapidly with all those no down-payment vehicle loans. All we can do is be restricted to the conditions and concentrate more on being in safe side somehow, rest is all our fate. So please ride extremely cautious dear bros and sis

Re: Hard hitting bike video launched

Poor guy, But the mistake was from both the side, I think rider was on excessive speed on that little road and car driver was not able to see rider because of the speed and biker paid his life...

I slow down 0-20 kmph while on junctions & intersection, people ride/drive horribly, even on red lights I avoid standing in front of crowd as people start honking before 5 sec of green light and some moron try to cross the red light in last 1-2 seconds and who ever is coming first from green light could become victim of accident...

Re: Hard hitting bike video launched

Its horrific situation out there.
I don't get why people start honking within last 5-10 seconds.
Well ,they have been waiting for past 85 seconds,can't they wait for next 5 seconds?
And the funniest part it,after breaking a red light by mere 5 seconds they continue to drive at 30kmph on a free open road.

Ridiculous mind setup.

Above all you cannot impart knowledge in them ,ultimately they start questioning your authenticity and might even offend with swearing.

Re: Hard hitting bike video launched

sad and tragic.

be extra vigilant guys, slow down at all trafic intersections, crossings etc.

what is worse, now-a-days medical facilities may save your life and leave you paralysed for life. be careful. always ride safe.
