    This was an accident captured by another Motorcycle following wit a
    camera. A Motorcycle is attempting to pass a car on a country hwy, but
    the car in front of him is trying to do the same. This looks so typical
    and ended in a bad crash. The Quiz Question here is, who's fault would
    you say is this ?

    The bike is in the wrong

    it is likely that he is well over the speed limit

    the car had his blinker on and started overtaking as soon as the car went
    past
    and in fact the car was moving across the lane ready to pull out before the
    last
    car had gone past

    The lower right of the movie shows that he was doing about 170kph.
    it looks like it was a cop cam.

    When you're trying to outrun a police car, it's always your fault...

    He's being followed by a cop and makes no indication to overtake.

    His fault.....shame the bike had to pay the price.

    Yeah, the rider was pretty lucky.. looks like the cop car going over the
    top of the bike and bouncing off the guard rail saved the rider.

    Well I have to agree.. not nice to see the rider go down but funny to
    watch a cop get cleaned up. Just reinforces what I posted about cops in
    high speed chases last week.. they should be restricted to the limit
    like everyone else. It would be interesting to see what happened behind
    the police car in this video.. whether he ran the two cars off the road
    when he bounced off the guardrail back into their path.
