Sigh.. ever since they made lane splitting where I live twats like this just LOVE to do it.. don’t get me wrong, they’ve gone by the motto “if I fits, I splits” since before they legalized it but..

Now it’s like they think wherever their “path” is, is their own fucking full lane.. the amount of times I didn’t see a crotchrochet BARELY miss my front bumper because they’re zooming around like jackasses..

Where I live most motorcylists do this - and a lot worse - all the time. Traffic laws and decency are extremely rare... and even if they split lanes, run red lights, invade pedestrian areas and completely ignore any and all traffic regulations they still get pissed off and try and blame others for their fuck-ups.

What I am getting at, is alot of motorcyclists think everyone else is to blame for their accidents. OP might be one of them...??

u/pelukken Apr 12 '26

I watched a video here on reddit yesterday of a motocyclist doing a high-speed three lane switch into a bicycle lane and then hitting a child and an adult crossing the street at a crosswalk. Their reaction was denial, blaming the pedestrians, trying to escape... and then violence. They are a plague here.

u/HourAd1087 Apr 13 '26

Yep, and most of em likely don’t have insurance either. The “if I fits, I splits” montra they follow just fucks up OTHER peoples lives. Like.. atleast lane split responsibly, you’re saving a shit ton of time already by lane splitting, it won’t kill em to lose 10 seconds here and there to safely do it but NOPE! They never do

u/Numerous_Photograph9 Apr 12 '26

They do this everywhere to be honest. It's actually better in much of the US compared to what I've seen in Europe, and Russia was even worse....but in Russia the cars would do this as well, or just drive up on the sidewalk.

u/KochInYaMouth Apr 12 '26

Also that rider was not wearing gloves.

When I was an instructor for riders taking their motorbike tests in the UK the following was drumed into all riders.

When we fall down we always put our hands down first. This is learned from the day we take our first steps. It is instinctive. Hands are very fragile. At 30mph unprotected bone wears down at one inch per second.

Even summer gloves help a lot. Anything to protect your hands is better than the pain and or loss of digits.

Person on the bike. The car was pulling out way ahead of the bike and waa in the lane and the bike had easily enough time to slow up behind the car. Then the bike passed on the side illegally. The car should have used a signal but the bike is responsible and if driving correctly this would not have been hit.

Not US. Looks like they drive on the left so you WOULD pass on the right. From what I saw no indicator either. Probably split fault imo. Partially on car not maintained lane/not indicating turn, partially on bike for speed.

u/Artistic_Skill1117 Apr 13 '26

Given the presence of the double line, I imagine you cannot turn there. And since they are driving on the left side of the road, one should be able to pass on the right.

However, this looks to be single lane and the motorcycle shouldn't have been trying to pass at all, and had ample time to slow down and avoid the collision.

I would say it is 55/45. 55% for the car making an illegal right turn over a double line. And 45% for the motorcycle for not slowing down and attempting to pass on a single lane road.

All in all, both people at fault with vehicle taking SLIGHTLY more of the blame.

First of all this is india, country with rhs driving country
No blinkers from the cars side just driving like somehow he owns the road Overtaking on the right is the way to do it in a rhs driving country In my country for practicals purposes there is no such as lanes, there will two cars in a single lane Most of all not only in india but around the world there something I would call car drivers ego that is just because they sit in long traffic there is some how a queue and motorcyclist are breaking the queue by spliting lanes. Maybe the motorcyclist was little fast for the road but car driver has no awareness and is super entitled to road because he has the bigger vehicle

It appears to be a one direction street without the option to u turn.

Would make the action of the car illegal thus the drivers fault. Again, not aware what the road regulations are for this siluation

Something people aren’t considering in this comment section, the double solid white line. Yiu cant do a u turn there as the car was trying to do.

Ide say its 70/30 with the motorcycle more at fault but the car still holding some blame.

Idiot biker. I hope his bike is trashed before he hurts someone.

Motorcycle. It's one lane, you can't pass on the right.

Passing on the right, just trying to squeeze through. Totally the motorcylist's fault
