  • i ride bike and I think this is very good awareness but to be honest in the first part the bike was going way to fast when it hit the car and in the second shot the bike was going on a normal speed..

    these sort of accidents only happen when the biker puts its guards down..

    drive safe

  • loud cans save lives

  • i know people will never see me when i ride, im constantly having people pull out on me at junctions ect... so i bought a race exhaust, so if people don't see me, they will damn sure hear me coming...

  • the reason the bike isnt there is because he doesnt see him, i've almost been hit by a driver on my motorbike because SHE DIDNT LOOK!!!, if they dont look hard enough they dont see you, that the idea

  • But did you see the moonwalking bear?

  • and yeah the bike isn't there the first time.... but great ads from this company, reli does the effect

  • wht can i say.... my mother always told me tht bikes=human over metal and cars=metal over human :P

  • I saw this commercial years ago when I was a kid. I remember after seeing it, I started to take mental note as to how many drivers might hit me on my pedal bicycle had I not of taken notice to their car and slowed down. And I've nearly been a bunch of times, had to skid sideways to a stop to lightly slam into a truck to stop, and was right beside my friend when a lady accelerated right into him because she didn't look.

    Now I always scan left and right as many times as I can when I drive.

  • The bike isn't there in the first clip, they insert it.

    And why do people ride bikes? its stupid. if a car just nudges them the riders flie's off breaking every bone in their body.

  • @Runies1 Why do people drive cars? They're big, large, expensive, frustrating and turn peolpe into idiots and idiots into killers in a few minutes. RESPECT other peolpe, walking or riding they're free to live and move the way they like.

  • I have a 2003 gsxr 1000. love bikes and respect every one on 2 wheels BUT im sorry once you step onto your 2 wheel machine you should be ready to watch out for these assholes, ive had to swerve countless time to avoid an accident because of dumb drivers. Safe driving

  • if they had a 1080p camera this would be a better ad.

  • i jumped when the motorcycle smashed into the car

  • poor suzuki...

  • Its a good idea, the trouble is I have seen some appalling riding by bikers, weaving in and out of traffic etc. How about an advert for bikers to recognisie the highway code...

  • ive actually done that on my motorcycle before( i looked then went out into traffic and was hit by another motorcycle that i didnt see coming) from the cars point of veiw, but on a motorcycle

  • Funny how the biker isn't there the first time he looked right.

  • IVE DONE THAT BE4

  • good one

  • brilliant!,you'd never see an add like this in the anti-motorcycle nation of New Zealand... :(

  • lol lay off the meth chap

  • oi the bigchi2 you dumb ass you need to look beter its the drivers face not the passengers

  • What I've found is that when you're on a motorbike, you can be a total dick, that is until you find someone willing to kill you

  • lol, i love how the biker went faster to hit the driver. And the passengers face... priceless.

  • Comment removed

  • dumbass if i was behind u i would frow a brick into ur window while driving u dont want to mess with me ile be ur worst nightmare

  • ye car drivers nearly knock me off my bike you try ile boot your door in dont mess with me

  • Dumbass. That's unnecessary

  • @petrollee

    Dont blame you bud....

    I love bikers lol...

    But I hate cars.. They're fucking boxe's on wheels lol x

  • I'll admit that there has been some "almost" times when I could barely pick out a bike in the dusky country roads, luckily most riders here use their headlights 24/7 and that is all you can see sometimes, and I have 20/20, can't imagine what it's like for more visually impaired people to try to spot them.

  • Some of you lot are fucking idiots. My best friends uncle has just died, he was hit by a car on his moterbike. Their whole family is in pieces. I kept thinking of this advert which is why i came on here to watch it again. The woman didnt even look, she just speeded around the corner and crashed into him. He died the next day after emergency surgery. He had two kids. Anyone making light of this is sick in the head. He was a really lovely bloke and now hes gone.

  • @creamcakes85 idiot why are you posting it, that every body know about your friends uncle. wtf If I was your friend I kicked your ass becauze you post about my femaly to the world

  • listen u fat fuck....u are surrounded by a fucking steel cage........who da fuck cares about u....motorcyclist have nothing......u fucking dumbasss........

  • Comment removed

  • omg.....ur just a coward...thats why u need to have that cage around you. when u ever get on a bike.....tell me u dont feel a good feeling......riding is not the same as driving. besides....there are more bad drivers than bad riders....

  • dont worry. a biker wouldnt stop for you either. they can smell pussy miles away

  • Great Video! RESPECT for all bikers! Fuck to all dumb drivers!

  • Are you people f#cking retarded? :)

    OFCOURSE you won't see the bike the first time the driver looks to the right, because its not there yet!

    He looks to the right, sees nothing, looks to the left, sees nothing. And then he should have chekcked the right side again, because; now the bike appears.

    But instead of being careful in the bike season, the asshole drives off and the bike hits him

    This has nothing to do with insurance scams. Its a simple, public paid awareness ad.

    Stupidity pisses me off

  • Agreed. But it would help a lot if ALL bikers had their headlight on ALL THE TIME

  • most modern bikes automatically have headlights on at all times, can't turn them off.

  • That biker was looking for an insurance pay out,he should of clocked that motorist no problem and doing 30, the biker's nowhere to be seen at the junction at the start.........................­..bullshit

  • da bikes not there da first time at all ive watched this loads of times on youtube and on tv. thats a scam. they shouldnt b able 2 put that bullshit on tv

  • pezzo di una gran merda che non sei altro, mi auguro che ti succeda una cosa del genere così vedi che non sei poi tanto infallibile e onnisciente come credi

  • YOU dont see the biker on first time because the CAR DRIVER didnt see the biker - cos he lonely looked once. Its not trying to trick you, but show you the drivers POV when hes not concentrating.The point its making is that you have to look to the right twice to REALLY be sure that nothing coming before your pull out.

    I ride a bike and also drive a car - believe me; on a gray day if your not LOOKING for a motorbike you dont see a motorbike!

    /watch?v=Ahg6qcgoay4&feature=r­elated

  • where was this filmed

  • compare 0:08 to 0:23 there was no bike the first time. This is an insurance scam. Damn scamming bikers

  • Your an idiot, its not a scam, its pressing the point that drivers have to really look to see if a motorbike/bike is coming before you pull out - plenty of blind-drivers pull out in front on me even though ive got lights on and a HiViz jacket.

  • brilliant

  • lol on the first one ...the guy on the guy on the bike is speedin...so u cant see him since hes too quick...i agree u should look 2 times to make sure tho. on the second clip on how its done...the guy on the bike is cruisin not speedin like on the first one lol.

  • Because the cyclist couldn't be at fault.

  • Exactly because he was in the intersection for a while and was stopped and the biker had time to slow down or stop OR speed up and go around OR Bail

  • If youre at a intersection you have stop to give-way to traffic on the right (in the UK), you ONLY pull out when its clear and no traffic comming. If for no good reason a driver causes another other driver to slow down or stop OR speed up and go around OR Bail then that driver is a dick and shouldnt be allowed on the road.

  • Ban cars.

  • @bongolongo

    Agree

  • How about the bike gets some loud pipes so people can actually HEAR it?

  • My words. If they can't see us at least let us make them hear us!

  • The only interesting part about this video is that I had my speakers up the whole way because I *was* listening to music before stumbling on this video...

    ::SCRRRRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEETC­H:: ::CRAAASH!!!!!::

    lol

  • well the point is about the motorist looking so it does catch us out more so

  • Nowhere near as good as the black/white team basketball ad that came before it - the two clips you see are different!

    THE BIKE ISN'T THERE IN THE FIRST CLIP!

  • ya thats what i was thinking

    good to see i am not the only one

  • Yeah exactly this doesn't prove that we cannot see something coming to us. It just proves you can trick people to think they didn't see something coming.

  • This is the correct response.

  • the first clip isnt the same as the second

  • this is the same guy that made the awareness test commercial!!!!

  • good commercial!

  • great commercial!

  • of course they're not on the right side its a different country like europe or something

  • Haha, probably England.. The guy talking has a English-sounding accent :P

  • It is England, yes.

  • ok the bike and the car are on the wrong side of the road lol, maybe they should follow traffic laws and then think about being more aware of bikes lol

  • Wrong side of the road? That depends what Country you are in. That is England and the English drive on the left, therefore they are driving on the correct side.

  • Im just joking dude lol hence the "lol" at the end of each line, ttyl

  • ohhhh, ok, disregard my comment then!

    Though driving on the wrong side would be the first critical error lol!

  • lol yeah!

  • i hate when people dont know what there talkin bout then say"lol" its like saying" ur video is stupid and doesnt make sense, lol"

  • I hate you skater go get real pants that allow you to move

  • wow nice comeback especially coming from a fag like you and by the way ima girl and i dont were those tight skinny jeans so get a life loser

  • me get a life i was making a stupid joke and conversing with some and you just came back and said i hate when ....... well i hate when somone involves them self in somthing that has nothing to do with them. girl...

  • it's still a good commercial

  • This is such bull shit! First the biker was not there in the first shot and second the car moves a few inches and the biker slams into it! How stupid do they think we are!

  • yep bikers fault.

  • wtf i jumped outta my seat.

  • you can't see the bike in the first go around. There's a visual skip in between the head moving. In the second go around there is no skip and the bikes headlights are clearly visible.

  • Funny thing is, the car only moved two inches after he looked both ways. Biker's fault.

  • gah!! when that bike hit the car it gave me a heart attack!!!

  • is that bikler stupid???? he drives on the LEFT side of the road!!!!

  • england

  • okay then I was wrong.

  • loool

  • thats stupid. the first time the bike wasn't even on the road. the second time you could clearly see it from a mile away

  • man, fuck bikes.lololololol. they have to yield more, cuz they're in danger.

  • If the biker wasn't riding on the curb in the accident scene there would have been no accident. The biker is in the middle of the road in the later scene. The biker was going to die soon anyway with the way he rides.

  • Wow, we have an ad just like that in America. Except everything is a mirror image.

    Steering wheel on the left, driving on the right and the bike hits the left side of the car.

  • this isnt believable, the guy wasnt on a cellphone

  • this is totally believable. the same thing happened to me, but i was in a car and he ended up T-boning me.

  • i was making a joke, because when im riding, every asshole that almost kills me is on a cell phone

  • that clearly was the cyclists fault. how long was the guy there. the bike crashed into him not the other way around. he should have braked, or swevred

  • thats happens if you stop in the middle of the road. take a look to the diferents between the first and the second escenes

  • Thats what happens when a tortoise crosses a rabbit. Poor rabbit didn't know how hard is the tortoise shell.

  • lol it probably was uk or australia, where peaople normaly drive on left side of the road, look at steering wheel in car, it's on right side of vechicle meaning it's suited for left side of road driving

  • mate this isnt an australian add, notice the crappy accent and terrible sad uk weather.

  • well to me (im polish) australian accent sounds like crocodyle dundee so similar to that guy but a little happier, and dont u have bad weather in australia too?

  • Right, and what the hell has Australia ever given the world? I can't think of anything. If it wasn't for the UK and America, your craphole would have nothing.

  • The Diff, Refridgeration, The notepad, telephane, electric drill, black box, the ute, electronic pacemaker, and more recently.. The Hyshot Scramjet Engine

  • wow your an idiot man the phone err thats americn the electric drill american black box, american, the scram jet again american...please pick your head out of your ass....have a nice day

  • Speak for yourself. The telephone was Italian, the electric drill was certainly Australian, the black box was German and the scramjet was first built and tested in Australia (though the engine was an Anglo-American effort).

  • Just Google "Australian Inventions" and it's quite clear that the notepad, diff, electric drill, ute, black box, electronic pacemaker, along with refrigeration as well as the Hyshot Scramjet engine were indeed Australian.

    And the "telephane" is not a "telephone". The telephane was much like a precursor to the television, so Australians can also be thanked for helping along home entertainment.

    Perhaps you should consider doing research before making a fool of yourself.

  • BAM!

  • thanks Australians for making black people stronger!

  • once again america shows it's ignorance to the rest of the world.

  • america? which one? North, South? I think you show your ignorance by thinking "america" is a specific place. Its actually two continents. Which is pretty general. If you are looking for the phrase, "United States" then you are being extremely judgmental. Not all United States citizens are stupid. Most aren't actually.

  • Couldn't they just look for thrills another way and ride a normal car?

  • Jeez people, this happens for real everyday and way too often!! It is not about whether the bike was there in the first shot, the point is that you may not see him if you do not look thoroughly. Be aware when you drive!! No more "I didn't see him" b.s. excuses. Cars do not own the road, and it is not the biker's duty to stop for you, or to swerve around in order to avoid you! If you pull out directly in front of a moving vehicle, no matter what it is, it can be your fault for not looking!

  • most bikers speed without looking themselves <_<

  • take even longer to look for jesus on a flying cow

    take too long and you'll never fucking get out the junction

  • the bike wasnt there WTF! it came from Back to the Future XD

  • thats how bikes come out here in greece..

  • ok thnx

  • i was lokking really closly and didn even see the bike till it hit the car

  • not only was it not there the first time, but it was also 3 times faster and closer to the car

  • well, sidewalk. he gets REALLY close to the car XD

  • yeah i agree with stef it wasnt there the firs ttime

  • The reason I couldn't see the bike was because his head was in the way... it was NOT there in the first shot. Also, the bike would have hit him anyway whether he'd pulled out further or not... maybe the biker was riding with his eyes closed??

  • I like the guy's British accent. (:

  • Ads true but wtf the first scene the bike like appeared 100 m/h

  • Serious the bike wasn't there in the first record! Just check it out! In the last video part you can see it! But it's not the same video part as the first

  • whoa that scared me lol

  • lol jims ahahah

  • Don't worry it was only a suzuki m109r plastic bike.

  • But...did you see the moonwalking bear

  • yeah lol

  • that was funny......thanks.

  • i rofled

  • Epic win ! ! !

  • it isnt his responsibility to slow down. plus he had no time to do so

  • reactions!

  • e q se foda q nao entendem portugues, motoquero nao entende porra nehuma memso ;P

  • eu quero q motoquero se foda, esses dias eu dei seta pra pegar a pista da direta, transito a 20 por hora, motoqueiro safado veio a 50 pelo meio, quando se arranca o retrovisro. safado!

  • OMFG. give me an anurism why dont you

  • what about the people on bikes? shouldnt they try to not run into ppl

  • if u didnt take all that time looking u could just turn right away and be fine

  • yeah and then the next time youre in a situation like this and you don't look you'll be sorry

  • casholz you bask in your glory to insult people over the internet because if they would find you. theyd break you, men and women alike

    and since youre that retarded i'll explain it to you. the first time he looked, the biker was nowhere to be present. the 2nd time, the biker was right in his face about to crash his car. take the rate at which the bike took from being not visible in the camera to visible as in right in the guys face and divide that by the time it took for it to happen, D=R%T

  • Me and my brother cracked up LOL!

  • fuck that, im not going to waste more time looking out for some idiot who wants to test death.

  • even though this does happen this commercial is flawed becuase you would have seen some of the biker coming from the area behind is head during the first part

  • thnx for this

  • this commercial defends the biker too much. all points unbiased, i believe the driver should have to look the 3 times (here, there, and here again). But what the hell's that biker doing going that fast in the middle of the day in that busy of an intersection to begin with. too bad all commercials are gonna be 2 sided to try and make you do exactly what it is theyre advertising.

  • you're a fucking idiot, he wasn't going to fast you moron. are you blind or just severely retarded?

  • I know what you mean, but it wouldn't be a very good 'THINK' advert if they showed him seeing the biker in the first place :-/

  • This ad, while true, is completely flawed and well, made it un-credible.

    The first time, There is NO VISIBLE bike. I don't care if the angel is different, it's just not there. And The second time the car is moving much slower. Oh well... typical ad.

  • shokkin....

  • Unfortunately there was not a bike at first and the there was I watched it several times....I think that people just need to pay attention more and everything will be fine! can't hit a bike that is not there in the first place... unless his big ass head got in the way!

  • Point is that this can hapen and it DOES. And sometimes the bike apperas to come out of nowere. Plus, the cameraangel is different in the first part so the driver blocks our view ;)

    Yes I drive a bike myselfe and the way drivers behave is..well lets just say that I'm raised to think that every one but me is an idiot in the traffic :D That have saved me more then once.

  • I completely agree, I drive a bike to, it's kinda funny seeing everyone freak out when I go by them in the fast lane.

  • i saw the comments before..and i knew there was going to be a bike hitting the car...but i still jumped when it got so close and finally hit it. another good lesson.

  • typical commercial, they dont even have the bike in the first half, thats just lame

  • OMG, I like jumped off my chair when it hit the car! this video is so tue!

  • god u guys think your so smart....your missing the whole point of the ad.

  • this is kinda stupid, in the first one the bike was going much faster, in the 2nd one he was going much slower.

  • Yeah

  • thats what happens when you drive on the wrong side of the road

  • I lol'd

  • yeah I agree with gtrfreak. In the first shot the biker is behind his head so you don't see him or just not in the shot at all. And yeah that is funny that he kneels on paper.

  • its the drivers fault he didn stop anyere near were he was suposed to like the very front of the car has to stop at the whie line ( he stoped when the line was abot nder were he was sitting) so his car was like halfway on the road already

  • Check the video 'Brit freaking out on Mario Kart'

  • The car moved a centimetre, so that means that the biker wasn't riding where he was supposed to.

  • I like how the driver doesn't want to get his pretty pants dirty, so he kneels on pieces of paper.

  • The driver looks like a guy from torchwood, "sleeper"...Doug Rollins.

  • they showed ne this video in school for safety drivingm bikes

  • they showed ne this video in school for safety drivingm bikes

  • the biker isnt there in the first shot...

  • I know, maybe if they used the same shots he wouldn't have missed him.
