S-Westerly Posted June 26, 2020 Posted June 26, 2020 Not so sure as if the wiped out cop car had any kind of camera the biker is going to be in a world of pain. Course he is alive which he very nearly wasn't so I suppose being Bubba's pal may not be all bad. Quote
Mickly Posted June 26, 2020 Posted June 26, 2020 ...... https://www.facebook.com/juankicompradoxsangre/videos/3100236933385563/ Both went through a red light, bloody lucky. Quote
Mississippi Bullfrog Posted June 26, 2020 Posted June 26, 2020 What on earth happened there? I initially thought the cop car was chasing the bike but it seems to have been ahead at the moment of impact.Looking again, is that actually a cop car? I don't see any lights on it. Maybe it was just two idiots racing. Quote
JackieOWheels Posted June 26, 2020 Posted June 26, 2020 It does look like it is they are both racing as both skipped the lights. The biker is lucky to be alive but if that's the crazy stuff that person does, they won't be for long. Quote
S-Westerly Posted June 26, 2020 Posted June 26, 2020 I thought it was a cop car about to try and get in front of the bike but as you say there's no lights visible and I'm not sure if the average yank cop car would be fast enough to get past a bike. Either way the biker is a lucky bast*rd and if he hasn't toned it down is probably a late biker. Quote
manxie49 Posted June 26, 2020 Posted June 26, 2020 Luck, skill or a bit of both on the part of the rider? Fair play, he certainly kept it together, Could have been really nasty, it was definitely an ‘urgent need of clean underwear’ moment. Quote
onesea Posted June 26, 2020 Posted June 26, 2020 Was the cop car coming from same direction as the van? see the bike and advert collision? Quote
geofferz Posted June 26, 2020 Posted June 26, 2020 Luck, skill or a bit of both on the part of the rider? Fair play, he certainly kept it together, Could have been really nasty, it was definitely an ‘urgent need of clean underwear’ moment. Erm luck. Also, not a cop car - unless CID is issuing unmarked white Bentleys Quote
Bender Posted June 26, 2020 Posted June 26, 2020 Yup I'm with luck, biker may have slowed at just the right time but it's a bloody miracle he rode on. Quote

As to luck or skill? Pure luck and I reckon he's used up a lifetime's worth just there. Quote
S-Westerly Posted June 26, 2020 Posted June 26, 2020 Just had a closer look at the paused shot. Definitely not a cop and probably racing the bike. What I thought were cop car markings were where the van impacted on the car. Total head bangers the pair of them! Quote

Bender Posted June 26, 2020 Posted June 26, 2020 Yup rear looks like a bently, window, lights, line around rear diffuser, speed, inability to bend the laws of physics the front looked like bently too just as it disappeared Quote

Mississippi Bullfrog Posted June 27, 2020 Posted June 27, 2020 Reminds me of a guy who used to work in Littlewoods in Liverpool. He had a 1.3 Marina which was his pride and joy. One day he was driving down the dock road when a wagon went into the back of it.The policeman taking the details asked him.Policeman - "What make is your car?"My mate -"Morris Marina 1.3"Policeman - "Is it a coupe?"My mate - "No, it's a saloon."Policeman - "Well it's a coupe now son."

The Hitcher Posted June 27, 2020 Posted June 27, 2020 Well that’s one bastardised Bentley off the road at least. Quote

When my life on wheels began, my dad traded in the car for a Morris Ital, after passing my test i wrote it off and we got a 2 year old Nissan Bluebird 1.8, handbrake turns were a dream to do in that Quote
Mickly Posted June 27, 2020 Posted June 27, 2020 Mate brought his dads Marina 1.8 TC Coupe (company car) down the pub, lunched the rear diff drifting ( well tramping ) in the pub car park, I choked on my Brew XI laughing, made worse when he panicked and knelt on the floor to take a look in his brand new white jeans.He was trying to get a tow home so he could leave it on the drive & deny all knowledge until we pointed out that the rear wheels were locked solid.Oh the follies of youth.

First time it was washed the front wing caved in because it was rotten. Literally held together by the paint. Quote
