i hate when tiny bikes are in the middle of a lane going slow as shit. they dont give way and i can't see them in my side mirrors most of the time. not talking about you though
Well, you should have just knocked on the window. We all are fat with bad teeth just to clear that up. I do hate to even say that happen to everyone on a motorcycle and if it has not, Then YOUR time will come sooner than you think. No body watches for a bike. I see a Harley with the green lite 25mph and grandmother pulls right out in front of one of the bikes and the other was lucky just hit his rear rim, but he did not go down, the other guy went over on the hood and still slid another 15ft.
its a near miss ,its not a near miss,americans are fat,brits have bad teeth.....grief! looking back through these comments im stunned at how ridiculous some people can be.ffs grow up.
It would actually be "Near Hit" Because you nearly hit it. If it was a "Near Miss", then it would have been a hit, because you nearly missed it but still hit it
@AdamTheHunt No, it's a miss, denoted by the word "miss". It could have been; near, close, far, wide, proximity or any one of an infinant kind of misses. In this, or the above context, that word miss means it's not a hit ;).
@maptlbh The adverb "near" implies "not" in the context of whether it occurred or not. For example, your test scores in english nearly made the grade. They were _near_ passing. You nearly got into college. That car nearly killed him. He was near death.
Being near something, does not make it that thing.
@megadeathx I never said"being near something does not make it that thing".For example,your stellar ability to not comprehend English does not make you English, does it?Neither does your proximity to England, right? Understanding is relative a certain level of aptitude.You nearly burned me with your comment, but,i have proven that you have nearly evolved into something that is not a monkey, for example.Another WIN for science and another win for woman, man, chimpanzees, gorillas,you&orangutans!

Well here's a better Idea, don't change lanes into someones blind stop. Bikers bitch that cars almost run them over yet you see them hanging out in blind stops. One and one more thing, stop acting all hard and deal with the fact that you almost got you ass run over in the rain on your scooter. You changed lanes while the car was already getting ready to move over, pay attention to the video you were in the wrong.
@WeThePeople2020 When he changed lanes the car was still beside the car in the middle lane. Traffic slowed him down in the right lane and as soon as he thought he was clear he tried to change lanes without paying attention just like most of the idiots on the road do.
That was an honest mistake. You both wanted to enter that lane, both checked your mirror and changed lanes. The car was just a bit slower than you. They corrected and gave way once they saw you in the lane.
@1100HondaCB With that logic, if I saw a driver of a honda do something stupid then all honda drivers are stupid. If I saw a black man driving like a moron, then all black men drive like morons. The list goes on, shut the fuck up.
@1100HondaCB My nationality is irrelevenat. As far as you being dumb, if you really need to ask then there's no point in me wasting my breath explaining it to you.
@effinurmother Well I hate Americans for one and especially people that don't pay attention when driving, therefore putting others at risk. The driver of the Ford should have checked his blind spot before moving into the left lane. I guess you wouldn't have the intelligence to realise the benefits of doing so. I can see you're American with a pathetic user name like that. Typical crude American terminology.
@TimmyLambchop I tell you what, when you eventually reach puberty, you might actually start being a bit mature. I have no time for American idiots like you.
@TimmyLambchop You're right. I don't get it because I'm obviously not dumb. You're pretty messed up if you only have the time to keep calling me that.
@1100HondaCB Lmfao! There you go passing judgements again. You think I'm a prepubescent kid simply because I keep repeating myself? Too funny! I'm messed up for only having the time to what? You're not making any sense. I would come back here, see what kind of dumb shit you posted and then say you're dumb. Why? Because you are. Simple as that. Lol kid, by saying the same thing over and over it actually saves me time. Why bother trying to convey something to you that clearly you can't comprehend.
@MrBadbiker93 Yet another pointlesss comment from yet another immature American. For starters, the vehicles are driving on the left, which is a clear indicator that this in not in America and the registration begins in ET, which is a Chelmsford registration, so therefore is a UK one, but I doubt you knew that much. For the record, Chelmsford is in Essex which is in England. You clearly jumped to conclusions as I never said anything about anything in the video being American.
@1100HondaCB Wow, know what the internet is huh? Looking up license plate information? Obviously you have some extreme prejudices towards the United States, how about pulling the stick out of your butt because you're mad that they're better than your country? And for the record, I am from Australia, so blow it out your ass.
@MrBadbiker93 Well, according to your profile, you are from the US. I guess you are a descendant from criminality as Australia was a dumping ground for crooks during the industrial revolution. For the record, most nations hate the Yanks. Anyway, I know much information about license plates (we call them registrations or number plates in the UK). I am from England, so you go and take it up the arse, as I'm sure you do anyway.
That was a near hit, as in you nearly hit him. If it was a near miss, it would be a hit because you would have nearly avoided him, but not quite avoided him.
He did what he had to do!! that was the safest procedure especial on 2 wheels and weight of about 700lb to 1400lbs and no windshields or windows so all you fast furios people on bike GOD BLESS
People just don't know how to use mirrors or check blind spots any more. They're too concerned with chatting on the phone, stuffing their fat faces, texting, shaving, etc.
happens to me all the time even in my car, or truck... doesn't matter what you drive or ride, people on the road are idiots, you gotta watch out for them
Biker was totally in the right. And it is quite legal to undertake if you are at or under the speed limit. If a motorist was doing 90kph in a 120 kph overtaking lane does that mean the rest of us have to drive at or below that speed? What about traffic jambs at walking pace. Should bus lane vehicles like taxis must they drive same speed as cars?
It's all very well saying that the car driver had time to see you. As a biker that's never an assumption you can make. You did a life saver - which was good. Then you proceeded to undertake the car while its indicator was on. That's an observation failure.
But your wrong, he didn't *undertake* he was already in the middle lane when the black mondeo started to switch lanes, and fair play to him for signaling but he was still in the wrong, should have checked his left side mirror. *MSM* Mirror Signal MANEUVER...
You ARE undertaking, no use bringing up the highway code because it still proves that you're wrong!! It is not congested conditions so stop trying to make out that you are in the right cause you seriously are not...
I didnt see any under taking happen in this video, he was in the lane when the mondeo was beginning to pull in, that driver was obviously unaware of him in the mirror!
Good job avoiding the idiot driver (well sort of) but i will say at the start in the left hand lane ur way 2 close 2 car in front. 4 secs gap when wet 2 when dry, keep that distance its saved me several times during emergency stops
This is the near miss that you will soon learn to hate as a rider, b/c it happens almost once a week, even when you're careful. Either someone doesn't check their mirror, or look out their window or whatever, and they just start changing lanes into you. Rush hour traffic is the worst, b/c frustrated idiots think the world should let them plow out from behind slow drivers with complete disregard as to who's in the lane they're charging into.
actually if u read the highway code it states that the only time you can undertake is if the vehicles in the next lane are slower than you meaning that because everybody tries to hog the fast lane then have to put their brakes on because of congestion you can carry on regardless at the same speed the driver of the car should av checked his mirror again before he moved out no good checking 20 seconds before the manouvre
reduced visibility ,some fucking idiot biker dressed all in dark colours but its the fault of the car ?? why not at least turn you headlight on and wear some reflective clothing you fucking knob
not really anyone's fault. however more so the car's fault then the bike, the bike moved in first thus the car should have checked his blind spot again before moving. simple rule of give way to whoever is there first.
So going by the comments by the illegal undertaking brigade, if someone in the fast lane brakes and slows down everyone to the left has to slam on their brakes and go slower than him. This is why i love driving on british roads. full of dickheads
undertaking is illegal. but this biker clearly had his chance to get from lane 1 to lane 2 before the man in lane 3 started signalling. the car on lane 3 started to only signal and maneuver in into lane 2 afterwards - meaning he didnt get a chance to see the biker and resulted in almost hitting the biker. the man in lane 3 should have checked his blindspot not only his mirrors. if the man in lane 3 started signalling before the biker actually switched lanes, the biker is at fault.
quite clearly sven wasnt undertaking, the car in the third lane was breaking hard, which he shouldnt have done, also he should have looked in his mirrors/blindspots before switching lanes, im 16 and know rules of the road more than some people here, get a grip people, if you actually knew how to maneuver properly, there would be ALOT less accidents on the roads. COMMON SENCE!
You tried to undertake him. That's as simple as it gets, he did his observations but he shouldn't have to for people like you. When entering the third lane you should pull back to allow room for a gap between you and the car infront. You should also be able to anticipate he might pull over into your lane to be ready to pull back. Idiot.
near miss? as if, the car seen you and reacted to the situation with ease.
you also seen what he was doing and kept over to the left, i have had b-double trucks come into my lane that close that i could give the driver a high 5
in all honestly and i am a bike rider myself you were in his blindspot and never backed off so he could spot you beside him in his mirrors it ticks me off if cars cut me off but yo0u have to also see their side
your a motorcycle driver. u must pay attention! its your fault! u should have seen his brakes and blinker indicating he was turning. if a skilled driver say that he wouldnt have pulled up next to him, instead slow down
@svengalie the car clearly slowed down alot to come into lane 2, technically you weren't undertaking if the car in the lane to the right of you slows down immediately, you wouldn't expect someone in lane 2 to slam on the brakes just because the person in lane 3 had slowed right down. also this is no excuse not to check your blind spot.
@maximusplatipus94 Yes but your taught to check your mirrors before changing lanes anyway. There isnt an excuse for ignorance even if someone is doing something wrong. Which he wasnt as the ford was braking and swerved without indicating properly. I think he may have even had the intention to speed up the middle lane and undertake the congested right lane. I see it all the time done by cars, bikes, vans all of them really.
@thearcticiguana . . another person who has not read the highwway code . . undertaking is a no no in the UK . .unless the lane besdie you is stationery or very slow . . this is neither . .
@wideangle852 u can overtake in the uk on single and double or triple road i have read the book and if u in the land near the hardshoulder and someone slow and if the next lane was free he move over to it to pass and then the car on third land did not look like most drivers do in car that why most biker get hit. that car was not allowed to move over. not if the biker slow down to let pass or wait for the biker to move first.GODSAKE
@thearcticiguana . . . yes you can overtake but you can NOT undertake . . . i.e. go on the inside of a car in a lane further right than you . . we drive on the left in the UK . . . all other lanes other than the left inside lane are designated as overtaking lanes . .you must be in one lane to the right to overtake legally any vehicle on the left . .
@wideangle852 u thick twat i have read the book and u can go to the people who made the god dam thing and as them undertaking is illegel i know but he was not. if u can't see that then shut up i have my point u have ur point which in the vid is not undertaking so u are wrong godsake learn the road before say anything idiot
@thearcticiguana . . .of course you haven't read the Highway code, that's obvious you idiot, because you are still saying that is not undertaking and it clearly IS . . read other peoples statements . . oh, and by the way, learn to type as well as learn to drive . . it's cunts like you that deserve to be spinning on their back and give every other biker a bad name, if you believe the crap you have come out with, or perhaps you're not old enough to even drive more likely . . fucking moron
@i don't give an fuck what other people say they are wrong anyway and this is how i type old fuck i still young but i know how to drive i ride an bike dum arse and i know what is overtaking is and undertaking is and that was not get off the fucking internet u old mother fucking arse who can't drive and work and his brain two see that it is not undertaking. and i have read the book more then u.
@wideangle852 Are you blind? You see that when he moves over to pass the slow traffic in the left lane the Ford in the right lane has his brake lights on and is slowing, he then moves without indicating until he is half way over and hasnt looked. On balance even if the biker was undertaking the greater of 2 evils was with the car. But typical car driver, do something dangerous like that and blame the biker... Idiot :)
@TheAvengingFate . .are YOU blind? Obviously you are . . the biker is clearly in the wrong . . bikers cannot see undertaking as an offence because they do this all the time and think this is normal driving . . if it was a car doing this there would have been a collision. Who's fault would it have been?? Fucking Moron
@wideangle852 Would have been the driver who didnt look in any case. Its strict liability in insurance, because he didnt look, moved over without correct indication he would have been the direct cause of the accident. The riders actions could have contributed but all he essentially did was get into the wrong place at the wrong time through a debatable move as he was overtaking and began undertaking as a result of the fords braking. Your language shows your brainless and just anti-biker. Have fun
@TheAvengingFate . . undertaking is illegal in UK . . period . . the driver undertaking will ALWAYS be at fault . . . no excuses . . it is up to you to avoid such accidents by not putting yourself in a situation that contributes to an accident . . undertaking is clearly one of these times . . your brainless reply means that you are just ignorant of the law . .or just plain ignorant
@wideangle852 I handle insurance cases. You can undertake in congestion when your lane moves quicker and when you pass a lane hogger doing less than speed limit, the latter not being in law but officers treat it as common sense. In the vid he overtook correctly but a ford in the fast lane slows suddenly and moved across with incorrect indication. The car was at fault. Im only harsh with you Im seeing an anti-biker attitude and theres no need for it.
@wideangle852 The Highway Code discourages undertaking on motorways with some exceptions (rule 268): "Do not overtake on the left or move to a lane on your left to overtake". Undertaking is permitted in congested conditions when frequent lane changing is not recommended.
Show me the law that says undertaking is illegal......And you call TheAvengingFate "ignorant of the law"? Irony sucks for you, sir.
@svengalie . . . I just qouted the Highway Code so its the law . .duhh!! . . can't you read?? Rule 268 . .thats RULE . . so means LAW . . . do it front of a police car mate on a normal and see what happens . . you really are fucking brainless
@svengalie . . are you English?? because it bloody well is statute . . . everyone has to learn it for their driving test and is tested on it as part of that test . . try telling a policeman that the 70mph speed limit is not law . . I give up . .
@wideangle852 Certain rules in the Highway Code represent various road traffic laws and must be obeyed. Others are not compulsory, but advisable. Jesus christ google it before you assert your "facts". Apology accepted.
@wideangle852 u must not b a biker. svengalie did his checks b4 making a legal overtake. dim driverin outside lane thinks indicating means its ok to change lanes but prob did'nt even look properly...All bikers do NOT undertake & this was not undertaking anyway.
To be fair Sven, you undertook him mate. Which is ILLEGAL.
When I do it, I make sure I slow right down before I do it, then give it the beans and I'm past the vehicle in around a second. If you just trundle along doing it at a pace like that then you're more likely to get hit, man I'm 22 and I know this, I've only had a big boy bike since March!
@b9y No I didn't. It's raining, all three lanes are slowly moving at varying speeds. What would you have everyone do, all get in the outside lane? No of course not, provisions are made for this scenario. Undertaking isn't illegal regardless of this fact, it is mentioned in the highway code but the highway code ISN'T statute.
@svengalie Fair play, I'll admit i was wrong so I apologise, but i'd rather not undertake and take my chances either way. Because most drivers will tell you that it's illegal to do so. Even if they're wrong I still think you should of taken it slower like.
@svengalie Undertaking is not illegal in the UK, Signalling is not a legal requirement. But some things you do and some you don't, because it makes driving safer and easier for everyone. Regardless of where the fault lies here, you would be the fatality if you two had collided. Also, put yourself in lane 3.. Mirror (clear), Signal (Look left to ensure car in lane one is not moving over), Maneuver... Ive been in your place before (many times), it annoys me, but deep down I know I'm in the wrong.
ha ha. Near miss. I'm a bike courier and that sort of thing happens everyday. The driver could have checked a bit more to see if it was clear to move back into the middle lane but the bike was trying to undertake the ouside lane and should have anticipated that could have happened. But I wouldn't say it was a very near miss unless the biker was totally not paying attention.
@philspank1 riding everyday one might think you'd see the bigger picture outside these 28 seconds. It's pissing it down with rain, it has been for the duration of the journey from Brighton to Edinburgh.
All three lanes of the motorway are moving at varying speeds, what would you have us do? ALL join the outside lane? No of course not, the law makes exception for this scenario and allows "undertaking". Not that such a thing exists in law of course. Tired, wet, and can't see I'm not perfect.
@deathhaunts8 incorrect. There is no law against undertaking. The highway code makes mention of it, but the only thing the police /could/ charge you with is dangerous driving.

@effinurmother Well I hate Americans for one and especially people that don't pay attention when driving, therefore putting others at risk. The driver of the Ford should have checked his blind spot before moving into the left lane. I guess you wouldn't have the intelligence to realise the benefits of doing so. I can see you're American with a pathetic user name like that. Typical crude American terminology.

@MrBadbiker93 Yet another pointlesss comment from yet another immature American. For starters, the vehicles are driving on the left, which is a clear indicator that this in not in America and the registration begins in ET, which is a Chelmsford registration, so therefore is a UK one, but I doubt you knew that much. For the record, Chelmsford is in Essex which is in England. You clearly jumped to conclusions as I never said anything about anything in the video being American.

Biker was totally in the right. And it is quite legal to undertake if you are at or under the speed limit. If a motorist was doing 90kph in a 120 kph overtaking lane does that mean the rest of us have to drive at or below that speed? What about traffic jambs at walking pace. Should bus lane vehicles like taxis must they drive same speed as cars?
TheSnugPub 2 months ago
It's all very well saying that the car driver had time to see you. As a biker that's never an assumption you can make. You did a life saver - which was good. Then you proceeded to undertake the car while its indicator was on. That's an observation failure.

This is the near miss that you will soon learn to hate as a rider, b/c it happens almost once a week, even when you're careful.

Rush hour traffic is the worst, b/c frustrated idiots think the world should let them plow out from behind slow drivers with complete disregard as to who's in the lane they're charging into.

actually if u read the highway code it states that the only time you can undertake is if the vehicles in the next lane are slower than you meaning that because everybody tries to hog the fast lane then have to put their brakes on because of congestion you can carry on regardless at the same speed the driver of the car should av checked his mirror again before he moved out no good checking 20 seconds before the manouvre

svengalie 3 months ago
undertaking is illegal. but this biker clearly had his chance to get from lane 1 to lane 2 before the man in lane 3 started signalling. the car on lane 3 started to only signal and maneuver in into lane 2 afterwards - meaning he didnt get a chance to see the biker and resulted in almost hitting the biker. the man in lane 3 should have checked his blindspot not only his mirrors. if the man in lane 3 started signalling before the biker actually switched lanes, the biker is at fault.
youngb1ood 3 months ago
quite clearly sven wasnt undertaking, the car in the third lane was breaking hard, which he shouldnt have done, also he should have looked in his mirrors/blindspots before switching lanes, im 16 and know rules of the road more than some people here, get a grip people, if you actually knew how to maneuver properly, there would be ALOT less accidents on the roads. COMMON SENCE!
Skate1Boarder1Chaz 3 months ago
You tried to undertake him. That's as simple as it gets, he did his observations but he shouldn't have to for people like you. When entering the third lane you should pull back to allow room for a gap between you and the car infront. You should also be able to anticipate he might pull over into your lane to be ready to pull back. Idiot.

@svengalie the car clearly slowed down alot to come into lane 2, technically you weren't undertaking if the car in the lane to the right of you slows down immediately, you wouldn't expect someone in lane 2 to slam on the brakes just because the person in lane 3 had slowed right down. also this is no excuse not to check your blind spot.

@maximusplatipus94 Yes but your taught to check your mirrors before changing lanes anyway. There isnt an excuse for ignorance even if someone is doing something wrong.

I see it all the time done by cars, bikes, vans all of them really.

thearcticiguana 3 months ago
@wideangle852 Are you blind? You see that when he moves over to pass the slow traffic in the left lane the Ford in the right lane has his brake lights on and is slowing, he then moves without indicating until he is half way over and hasnt looked. On balance even if the biker was undertaking the greater of 2 evils was with the car. But typical car driver, do something dangerous like that and blame the biker... Idiot :)
TheAvengingFate 3 months ago
@TheAvengingFate . .are YOU blind?

Who's fault would it have been?? Fucking Moron
wideangle852 3 months ago
@wideangle852 Would have been the driver who didnt look in any case. Its strict liability in insurance, because he didnt look, moved over without correct indication he would have been the direct cause of the accident. The riders actions could have contributed but all he essentially did was get into the wrong place at the wrong time through a debatable move as he was overtaking and began undertaking as a result of the fords braking. Your language shows your brainless and just anti-biker. Have fun
TheAvengingFate 3 months ago
@TheAvengingFate . . undertaking is illegal in UK . . period . . the driver undertaking will ALWAYS be at fault . . . no excuses . . it is up to you to avoid such accidents by not putting yourself in a situation that contributes to an accident . . undertaking is clearly one of these times . . your brainless reply means that you are just ignorant of the law . .or just plain ignorant
wideangle852 3 months ago
@wideangle852 I handle insurance cases. You can undertake in congestion when your lane moves quicker and when you pass a lane hogger doing less than speed limit, the latter not being in law but officers treat it as common sense. In the vid he overtook correctly but a ford in the fast lane slows suddenly and moved across with incorrect indication. The car was at fault. Im only harsh with you Im seeing an anti-biker attitude and theres no need for it.
TheAvengingFate 3 months ago
@wideangle852 The Highway Code discourages undertaking on motorways with some exceptions (rule 268): "Do not overtake on the left or move to a lane on your left to overtake". Undertaking is permitted in congested conditions when frequent lane changing is not recommended.
Show me the law that says undertaking is illegal......And you call TheAvengingFate "ignorant of the law"? Irony sucks for you, sir.

To be fair Sven, you undertook him mate. Which is ILLEGAL.

Perhaps when you're older you might be wiser, eh?

@svengalie Fair play, I'll admit i was wrong so I apologise, but i'd rather not undertake and take my chances either way. Because most drivers will tell you that it's illegal to do so. Even if they're wrong I still think you should of taken it slower like.
b9y 3 months ago
@svengalie Undertaking is not illegal in the UK, Signalling is not a legal requirement. But some things you do and some you don't, because it makes driving safer and easier for everyone. Regardless of where the fault lies here, you would be the fatality if you two had collided. Also, put yourself in lane 3.. Mirror (clear), Signal (Look left to ensure car in lane one is not moving over), Maneuver... Ive been in your place before (many times), it annoys me, but deep down I know I'm in the wrong.

ha ha. Near miss. I'm a bike courier and that sort of thing happens everyday. The driver could have checked a bit more to see if it was clear to move back into the middle lane but the bike was trying to undertake the ouside lane and should have anticipated that could have happened. But I wouldn't say it was a very near miss unless the biker was totally not paying attention.
