The traffic at silver lake is supposed to be one way, so whoever was going up the hill the wrong way is at fault, when going ro jump a hill you always should have a spotter on the hill just in case. Been riding there for 30 plus years with no incidents.
@@altajoetindall it’s the SUV driver’s first time at the dunes and he’s coming up to the blind peak slowly. I’ve been riding dunes for a long time and can tell you that if a bike catches air over a blind hill with no spotter, he’s the one driving reckless.
So, Is anyone going to mention the fact that "wood tv" posted this story and they happen to have a mascot hanging out of the side by side on the left in the drone footage? Hope healing is quick for the drivers.
Spotter’s failed and Gavin shouldn’t have been out there without some experience. Always keep your head on a swivel. Complacency kills. Most people know that a group a vehicles parked at the top of a dune like that means someone is jumping and would have drove up cautiously not blasted right up the middle in quiet jeep. Here is where loud pipes save lives!
It wasn’t really his fault other than being new at the dunes. If you see cars parked on top with a gap in the middle and obvious landing tracks it might be someone’s jumping The dirtbike riders spotters need fired lol because me and my buddy’s always have at least 1 guy watching the other side of the hill just for that reason
As shown from motorcycle cam it was a blindside dune that the rider didn't see what was on the other side the dune, even on highway it happens when the road is going uphill and the driver has no visibility on the other side of the hill, and sometimes it was a surprise to find out the there was a car blocking the path. Driving fast when you don't see what is ahead is no even off road.
I blame the drive of the SUV. It was his first time out there. Driving slow against the side of the massive dune that people jump off of. Since he doesn’t know what he’s doing.
@gn1107 They already got us penned into these little tiny spots to ride that are jampacked with everybody in this one little spot. They got sound police. And you want it one way directional too… Christ what’s the point anymore fun is basically illegal
@walterhorn5567 i simply was asking question, as i have not been to the dunes in 40 years. And you make me out as demanding oneway routes! LIGHTEN UP FRANCIS!!!!
He bumped his eyebrow? He didn’t say one thing about the dirt biker that broke his back. He was seeing cartwheeling through the air while this guy was safely sitting in his car seat. What a kook!
I don't think anyone is being fined or charged, but a police report in the other video said that while there were no directional rules or speed limits, the dirt bike guy was going a bit too fast to be safe and he was alone without anyone to warn him what was over the hill, though I think the SUV guy's spotters tried from what I saw in the other story.
The failure was the people standing around at the top of the hill. To another extent, as a rider, don’t jump anything that you don’t have anyone watching the other side. He may have assumed the people at the top of the hill were watching. I’ve rode dirt bikes there several times.
Good thing nobody got hurt all in all. Yes true I don't know why the people weren't warning the kid that somebody was coming up the hill or nobody was paying attention. But personal responsibility don't need to make the area to restricted take away all the fun
Incredible drives up the landing where people have been jumping all day…Absolutely no common sense and that’s why accidents happen you don’t go drive up the landing for a jump especially if there’s people at the top waiting
The guy on the dirt bike obviously had more injuries than the guy in the Jeep. But nobody wants to get his story. Who knows the guy on the dirt bike has broken bones but we are more worried about the guy sitting safely in his Jeep
It's 2024. Everyone on the dunes has a cell phone and on X Offroad Ap. You could draw a digital one-way track that could be edited in real-time by the DNR in combination with the real-time feedback from the people using the area. Everyone using that area would know the position real-time of everybody around them. This isn't rocket science.
I mean you could do that with an app, but everyone would have to focus on their phones and devices to see it. Augmented reality glasses and stuff aren't widely adopted.
Sooo he was flying a drone WHILE driving?? And all the people on the top of the hill not checking if the dirtbiker is free to hit the jump. Been going there for 15+ years. If that guys flying a drone while driving he should be paying for a new bike.
@jeremykarr9402 The drone was flying itself and controlling the camera itself. You can tell from the video. When the collision happens, the drone slows down to match the new speed of the suv and then adjusts the camera angle on its own. Trust me, this guy isn't going to have the presence of mind to re-aim the camera and everything in a moment when he just got a bike through the windshield. At least two of the people at the top were signaling a warning it looks like. Naturally though, it would be hard to hear shouting or anything in this situation. Check the previous story for more information. Click the news station's username and scroll down a bit. My suggestion for people in the future (though I wouldn't hold these two guys to it since I just thought it up) would be to bring some signage or something to hold up in case of this. Again, I just thought about this with full hindsight, so I wouldn't hold them to it, but it seems like a good idea for future riders in this area with spotters.
wheel or watch cant do both insurance wont fix this tools jeep cause he is at fault so he gets on the news crrying bout his sunvisor while he broke bikers legs
@@tf2whackyengineer yes we all know the drone was in follow mode. He's still paying attention to the controls and video, it was his first time there, so more than likely doesn't understand the etiquette and danger of riding in these places, but worst of all he's driving a jeep compass.
@@justsomeguy-- Isn't follow mode where you dont' have to pay attention? I figured that's what he was doing, along with t he video. I just viewed two of the stories, do you have more info? I would be interested in more videos from the front of the suv or inside of the suv. Any research help is appreciated.
I'm not from the area so I don't know, but won't some wind or rain eventually erase their changes to the dunes and change it in another way? This is of course, assuming they don't leave too much permanent trash, but it's sand, so I imagine if it's left a while, it'll just change with the weather.
No, the drone was flying itself. You can see after the crash, the drone adjusts its position and reaims the camera to adjust for the now stopped truck.
Your the jackass that doesn’t understand how drones work. As others have said, this drone is in follow mode. It was locked on to his vehicle and tracking him automatically. That bike caught air and came into his windshield. You should never jump a hill if you don’t have a spotter and can’t see the other side.
All of those people standing there doing nothing to warn anyone.
Two at least did try, they just failed.
When I was there it’s was just a room then a bang there was no way for them to do anything.
it's not their responsibility to
the biker shouldn't have been full sending it up a blind crest

20 years ago you would have just said, “you have to see it to believe it”. Today, multiple angles 😂
These two need to become friends for life with those guardian angels!

First time at the dunes? Is all you need to know!

Dirtbike is at fault. An suv with a giant saftey flag
Let’s just ignore the inflation device hanging out of the SxS…….
Why was he going the other way. Used to have a clockwise rotation of the whole park.

It's like being on a sled at tip up town. So many people going in different directions. Makes you wonder this isn't happening more frequently.

They need to put directional sings up on the dunes. I quit going due to the safety issues.
Aren't there oneway routes on the dunes?
Nope, other story says no directional area in this zone.

Only in one area.

So the drone follows him? Dumb question? 🤷🏻♂️
You can setup some drones to follow targets and the controller itself. Set some parameters like height and distance and it will follow you around.
Yep, all on its own!👌
I never been to Silver Lake, anybody here who would be at fault? Just curious. Thanks.

I’m sorry but them people standing at the top are more at fault than either drivers choose your spotters carefully
All the best God bless all your days ✝️🕊️🇺🇸
duh
It happens. Get over it.
also jeep is going the wrong way
this did not occur in a directional area
No it isn’t
The guy on the dirt bike obviously had more injuries than the guy in the Jeep. But nobody wants to get his story. Who knows the guy on the dirt bike has broken bones but we are more worried about the guy sitting safely in his Jeep
Dude was jumping over blind hills without a spotter, should we feel bad for him

He was flying his drone and driving. Do one or the other. Can't be paying much attention to driving if he's flying his drone.
the drone was flying itself.....

News flash, the drone follows you
u need to stay in mall parking lots ..sofa king we todd
What EXACTLY did he do wrong ?
The dirtbike was clearly trying to jump the suv. Thats why no one was warning anyone and why they have so much footage
Looks like. Stunt gone wrong.. all those people standing around and the jeep having a drone flying overhead by chance?
sign says enter at your own risk so enjoy the trails not your drone footage or stay home
wheel or watch cant do both insurance wont fix this tools jeep cause he is at fault so he gets on the news crrying bout his sunvisor while he broke bikers legs
How is it his fault?
The Jeep driver was NOT at fault
Safer would be not flying your drone while driving your suv, which also had no place at being in the dunes. He was a Hazzard from the get go.
The drone was flying itself. Also, you can't be a Hazzard unless you're jumping the General Lee over the dunes.

The dunes are always changing.
