Pedestrian and BSA motorcycle almost hit by car.

The driver of this car was a 55-65 year old man way out to lunch with no understanding of road rules. He was not even in a rush but would have continued into the pedestrian if I had begun my legal turn left. This is edited 4 obsevers began yelling and I had some questions on the number of beers he had drank, bad scene but slow speed thank the BSA gods. In all cases cars will react in their own interest so they also must be considered unpredictable at best in an emergency.

The guy is making his left in the oncoming traffic lane from behind me and the pedestrian starts running because the old coot tries to cut in front of me waiting for the walker.

I agree, that's why I got the 'VIO POV.1'

The Oregon Scientific ATK is garbage no one should buy it for anything but video. No audio quality, I am using a SD HD Kodak Zi6 this year.

Shit like this happens all the time, it's why I just ordered a POV.1 helmet camera.

one last thing, you got his plate number. post it in a few forums. it's trivial to find out where people live. find local motorcycle cops, show them the video, pay a little visit. that piece of garbage needs a little talking-to, before he runs someone down.

[saxrider]

that should read "to the left of the motorcycle". the old fart in the car, needs a sound beating.

motorcycle was lead vehicle in turn lane, it wasn't clear to go, because a pedestrian, and some piece of garbage behind him, got impatient and went to the left of the car, to the right of the pedestrian, forcing the pedestrian to jump or get run down. I'd say that in Texas, that guy driving deserves two in the chest.
