Lane splitting at speed is foolish. To me it's ok if traffic is at a crawl or stopped but you will pay the price sooner or later if doing this at higher speeds. I know the "expert" riders can't be told anything but in case you are on the fence and want to enjoy riding the rest of your life, don't do it.
Can you back your claims with statistics, because everything I've found has said that lane splitting is safer by about 1.5%
@@zanegrattan6637Define "Safer". Because fewer accident counts aren't necessarily 'safer'. If we consdier severity of injury/fatality. BTW What is the source of the '1.5% figure'?
Lane splitting feels better because it gives the illusion of having more control. So it's almost impossible to convince many riders from using it less.
@@zanegrattan6637 Shows us the data that shows lane splitting is safer. Lane splitting is stupid and dangerous no matter how you slice it.
The guy that dumped in the 'easy' turn was just going to fast for his comfort in my opinion and wasn't willing to lean more. I think you can see him 'turning' the steering wheel more so than leaning in the turn. It looked to this inexperienced rider that he was trying low speed turning maneuvers with the handlebars while needing higher speed leaning/counter steering to make the turn.
That is a fair assessment. I totally could see myself make that mistake few months back.
I think it might also be the case he was not looking in to the turn but dead ahead but its hard to be sure.
I did that once on my dual sport. I started to go into a turn. The bike didn't lean how I expected, I got scared, panicked, and drove straight into a field. I could've made the turn if I used my brain cells and realized I need to countersteer harder to compensate for my tires being aired down.
@@davidlister7590 Definitely would tie into my observation. Good catch! If you want to make it through the turn you must look through the turn!
I did make that mistake early on. I fixated on the guardrail/sand-gravel and did not trust that the motorcycle would turn. Iike that guy I experienced a one-idiot accident@@rostharan
Hello again Dan. For your watchers here is a mental exercise they might try. Visualize a carborundum wheel on a bench grinder spinning at full speed. Now visualize your elbow, shoulder, hip, knees, face being mashed against that grinder and held there for about 5 to 10 seconds. Now, when you get on your bike and are riding at freeway speeds glance down at the pavement buzzing past in a blur just inches below your foot. Remember that bench grinder? There it is, and it is always with you when you ride.
I am so much appreciating watching these videos and crash/avoidance discussions and S.M.A.R.T evaluation DanDanTheFireman. I am in my 50s and was a road cyclist for too many decades and saw/experienced some crazy stuff as well. Now I am wanting to get into motorcycling as I have always wanted to since I was a teenager. Every prospective or current motorcyclist, yet alone car driver, should watch these videos as your advice and observations are either a life/injury saver. Thank you so much for this!
no kidding, ive started watching these videos recently and as a new-ish car driver i can't tell how many times the advice helped me to pay attention to spots where risks might emerge, or to anticipate risky situations. It helps when someone shows and explains those situations because then if we see them on the road they are not new, and its easier to react faster. i am yet to get into motorcycling, but hoping in the future
got my license a couple weeks ago and have been riding intermittently cause of the weather but love it! (have a 2016 ninja 300) had my first heavy rain ride Friday evening cause i got stuck in a pop up flood storm and that was scary but took it slow and made it home. it was amazing to see how much traction you loose on pavement when the roads are soaked. Thank you Dan for your videos and wisdom they have kept me SMART and very cautious of other drivers, even more so than before, while beginning my motorcycling journey.
The painted lines and markings on the road are especially slippery when they're wet, because the layer of paint removes/decreases the amount of friction the asphalt usually gives you, so be conscious of that if you get caught out again and make sure you are avoiding riding on top of any if you can help it. Also look out for leaves in the road and, believe it or not, grass clippings. Even in dry conditions, grass clippings from lawn mowers spitting it into the roadway when people mow next to the curb is like riding on glass. Avoid those like the plague.
I've never got the allure of group rides, so much more free riding alone.
These first few videos are perfect examples of why so many people hate motorcycle riders. The lane splitting and disregard for others vehicles and space to the “group ride” and sense of entitlement to be in and STAY in a group. “We’re in a group bro, the stop sign doesn’t apply to all of us. We must stay together and hold up traffic, also pass the the bud light”
The Rossi shirt isn’t the best protection but it looks good on her lol
I watch that guy and he said their lethers were on washing and they couldnt wear it
@L4Z1C. Thanks for info. Not good enough excuse, he should have Denim, at least (if weather too hot, then bring wet-wipes also)
@@L4Z1C. rationalization
@@L4Z1C. Yeah, so you don't ride without them simply as
That dude braking in the rain is the ultimate example of looking way ahead and not panicking in a dangerous situation
As a 40 year rider I think that lane splitting is one of the stupidest things any motorcycle rider can do
Agreed. I can understand when traffic is so congested that people are just sitting there in the car and you wanna weave between them, but it really seems extremely stupid and dangerous to do while going at any decent speed no matter the drivers skill level. Glad that ish is illegal in my state of Idaho
Picked up a cardo and a quad lock using your links! Thanks for what you do from a fellow first responder. 😀
Lane Splitting came about when at one time some rider went between cars that were stopped, that was a very good idea, then some rider decides that maybe when cars are below 10 miles an hour its ok to go between cars and pass them, that was a good idea, so as humans we a known to abuse things, now every rider thinks going between cars when cars are going 45 mph and above is also ok, horrible idea.
The guy crashing ❤had his eyes fixated in one spot rather then looking into the turn
@ 5:00: In the UK the centre line is usually white dashed, but near hazards like this bend, they increase the length and frequency. Solid white lines must never be crossed. On this bend the rider would get better vision by riding on the left side of the lane. Turning in too early is a common error.
Why do squids do stunts in the middle of town around traffic? Go somewhere else.
Who is going to see how cool you look then?
14:52 He was going 58 MPH. That's too fast for that area, especially in the rain. He did a great job braking though.
yeah and it's a hill so the car probably looked just before the bike got over the hill
car is already backing out when the rider comes speeding over the hill, but somehow it's that car driver's fault...what a tool....
the video at 1:31 is literally one of the things I have to learn at my motorcycle course atm. There's a traffic cone on the right and one on the left. So you drive through 2 cones next to each other in third gear, going around 50 km/h. So the moment you drive through the 2 first cones, you move the gas up and swerve to the left from the first cone, and then right from the second cone.
You basically learn how to avoid 2 targets by swerving twice.
That one was fun.
The evasive maneuver that stressed me out was the one where you'd have to quick react and swerve either left or right (depending on where the instructor pointed his arm). and then come back the other way. This test, by the book, is fine. But for some particular reason for us it wasn't a light or a device pointing where to go. It was our instructor standing right ahead of us who'd point a direction once you're close enough. Most of the time I'd just end up swerving before he gave a direction.
The only oil slick in the whole parking garage and they hit it 🤣🤣I think they aimed for it
Hi Dan. great learning videos 👍👍👍 greetings from Ratingen.Germany. 🤓🤓👋
17:30 Too many stupid people are buying these crotch rockets. In other countries they won't sell you one until you have enough proper experience to ride them.
Dan makes the best 20 minute videos that you can watch in 2 minutes.
THAT NEAR HEAD ON, was a life saving escape path, trust me he watches ur videos.
I never really thought to use the telephone poles. Used other indicators but that's a solid indicator to use
Lack of ABS caused the skid, or lack of progressive braking. Speed Wobble guy just confirmed that if you have speed wobbles, fix your bike.
Too many riders wear those crap gloves expecting them to be adequate. Was out riding last night and came across a couple on a Gxr, neither was wearing any kind of gear. Not even a helmet in sight
Group ride, across three different lanes, plus ride leader causing chaos with lane changes... recipe for disaster.
The car at 15:10 100% had no chance of seeing him. And after they backed out, the bike would have been in that back right blindspot anyway. Good job getting stopped on the wet pavement.
That "telephone" pole trick is genious. I will definetely be using that thank you.
Excellent, show us what a speed wobble is, then your bike decides to really show us what a speed wobble is. Thanks for the demo.
That bro was simulating speed wobble to show the camera and then gets wobble, smh
Thanks for doing what you do Dan. Your videos are very helpful.
0:00, that car started coming into the lane before the motorcyclist passed the other car in the same lane, no need to shake your head, just look out for stuff like that.
I was thinking the same thing. No way the car driver can be expected to see the biker coming . He’s focused on the cars immediately around him.
Great upload as always!
I like how there were so any open spots in that garage, and he committed to the one with a giant, easily visible oil spill. Even if it's assigned parking, there had to have been a better way XD
@14:01 that is somewhere Cape town area in the RSA, those 16 seater commuter taxi's don't give one iota for anything else on the road....
14:03 , that a taxi from South Africa, they drive like do gs, make thier own road laws and do as they please, most lawless operators on the road..
The “wAS tHIs doNe oN PuRPosE?” guy man... literally who cares, you're too close.
8:55 My guess is that rider is a beginner and he froze. Probably he was engine braking and that turn suprised him somehow (was sharper than he percieved it i guess) so he was scared to implement brakes. Other posibility is that he just zoned out...
3:33 Looks like he had it there for a hot sec too until the wheel locked up.
I ride in Maine and our roads all are bad so many road surface hazards and I think of these videos every time I swerve around them.
Just bought my first dual sport. It’s a 2019 Honda CRF250L and can’t wait to get my endorsement. I do ride dirt bikes a lot so I’m already ahead of the game as far as learning to ride a motorcycle so this endorsement will be a piece of cake to get.
Congrats! Have fun and be safe!!
I pretty much followed the exact same path as you. Riding dirt bikes for a few years and then decided to get a dual sport during the pandemic to make the transition to the street since there was nothing else to do and little traffic. Having that background is definitely a huge advantage, because you're already used to way less than ideal conditions and having to react to bumps and slipping/sliding around, and you're already in the habit of wearing protective gear. It was learning to ride smoothly in traffic and not being herky jerky that took some getting used to.
the thing i struggle to get is how most car drivers panic in situations where theyre reversing out of a parking space or turning and someones travelling in their direction of travel. ive had a lady stop horizontally across both lanes of a dual carriageway as i approached because she panicked as she was turning, so stupidly dangerous "fear is the mind killer"
5:00 Highway code 166
DO NOT overtake if there is any doubt, or where you cannot see far enough ahead to be sure it is safe. For example, when you are approaching
a corner or bend
a hump bridge
the brow of a hill.
I'd send the footage to police
The one with the car from behind, I've been there, you looking to the left to see if the lane is clear, and you forget to watch out for the person in front of you.
2:25 How much strength do you have to have to keep from getting thrown off the bike and catching it when it comes back down?
21:30 is my hometown! Wish the rider’s channel name was on the clip. And I’m not surprised to see a Stuart driver do something so stupid.
whats with that emergency SOS on the iphone? why did it go off and what does it do?
That's why in UK and most of Europe you cannot overtake from the slow lane.
For the lane numbering I was taught 12345
😂His brain almost stopped working when she took that helmet off
The way our rewind was in sync 😂😂😂 like he said what ?!?!
I find it interesting that at least from the view of the rider camera, I can not tell at all whether the first driver (first minute and a half scene) had their signal light on or not. I really can't tell, which makes me think of signal lights as just an additional piece of information, but not something I should rely on. If they ARE on I may not see them, and if they aren't on it doesn't mean the vehicle won't move into new space.
14:05 That was a Taxi in Cape Town. They are a menace on the roads. Absolutely no consideration for other road users.
Man are you up early, it's Saturday sleep in Dan! Pretty sure that stoppie was also a brownie! I'm done assuming people know what lane to turn into, just assume they don't and you 'll be much safer out there. Yep, he said "braked" and I believe that is correct.
0:14 IS THAT A TESLA ROADSTER?!?
the one riding off the road. plain and simple target fixation. Getting that head looking thru the corner... and of course riding beyond your abilities is a big one
Years ago got speed wobble issue. Found it was rare wheel misaligned
Early z1000's are notorious for failed steering head bearings, causing those wobbles. There's an upgrade for them.
2:16 front tire gets an amazing amount of traction when it is preloaded with progressive braking.
wdym by "preloaded"?
@@Noe-Mastro
When you hit the brakes hard, the amount of (weight) load on the front wheel increases sharply and too suddenly. When you utilize progressive braking, weight load on the front wheel increases gently (pre loading) and gradually, resulting In the front wheel first biting/gripping the pavement before the rider has even hit the brakes hard.
When you start using progressive engine braking from high speeds and use it for cornering, you can finally tell your friends you are good at riding motorbikes.
@@Noe-Mastro What he means to say is not locking up the front wheel while he's moving. It's a term people use to make themselves sound smarter than they actually are.
@peteranserin3708 but if he progressively braked, he wouldn't have locked the front wheel right? He just slammed the front brake to put him in this situations
@@Noe-Mastro he didn't lock the front wheel. If he locked the front wheel, he would've immediately dumped the bike.
I’m surprised lane filtering is legal anywhere. It seems extremely dangerous.
Almost t-boned a stop sign runner yesterday, luckily my 2023 HD Heritage 120th Anniversary has ABS! Wife yelled a bad word in my ear, which I passed on to the driver!
just an observation, it would be good public relations if bikers would back off a bit and let people in to make an exit ( if they see they are trying to get over for an exit). also when in an obvious residential area, expect people to be trying to get out of their driveway. these aren't the situations to be getting angry at. now if they flip you off and cut into your lane of travel, then they are just a$$holes and earned your wish that they get in a one car wreck on the exit ramp.
At 4:29 ypu say ypu would choose middle, middle，middle.
While you, yes, will have more space cushion for cars that have crossed over to your side you will have an disadvantage to choosing the left lane.
If you choose the left lane this is your advantage.
When you ride the corner and spot the car heading towards you, you will now have more total braking distance to the outside of the curb.
You know have a better total distance to react, brake and swerve o compared to the distance to the outside of the curb from the middle lane.
7:11 Belgrade, Sajam (fair)
Dine-In Pizza Hut was most impressive. ❣🍕
14:17 thats South Africa, Cape Town.
at 9:20, looks like he was powering to overtake while also cornering and then had target fixation on the rail, then proceeded to panic brake and dump the bike
As to that oil the guy hit. I was riding to work last week and saw a red, plastic gas can in the middle of the road. Something I didn't think about but saw in time was the LARGE puddle of gas all around it.
at 4:18 I partly disagree, at least on narrow twisty roads and blind corners. In a left turn, stay right (but away from the dirty stuff). I know that riders often fear to stay right. Practice and start slow until you get used to it.
The narrower the road, the more stick to the right. Most of the time, I ride in the alps (for me the road in this scene is almost a straight highway). If i.e. a bus comes along with the front crossing the center line even if its wheels are on the correct side, chances are you will be decapitated. On the center position, the head is often on or over the line. Left position is a NoGo, center often is still dangerous. I almost died several times: horrified, riding behind other riders, sticking their head to the other side.
Keep the 20% safety margin of skill level, as noted many times here, to still be able to change to middle if needed. Stay right, until you see the exit and know what's coming next. Then lean more, aim at the late apex on an almost straight line, right the bike and accelerate, if the path is free. Because the bike is almost upright now, the danger of losing traction is minimal. That's why this line is often quite fast, you can use more of the acceleration potential of the bike, in a safe way. As racers say: a clean corner exit matters.
18:40. Does he have hands off the bars? Seems unlikely but it looked like it to me.
It seems he was giving and example how his bike does a speed wobble when he rides just from him moving the bars..
But he gripped the life out of them when it started..
7:24 rider says to the car driver " Are you normal hey" haha typical balkan region of Europe talk
It's pretty crazy to see myself in your video. I've been watching you for a while before I started riding. yeah, I shouldn't have sped off in the rain. There was a lot of adrenaline rushing and then anger when I saw them just going to a driveway 5 feet away. 😂
Rear brake for sure on that skid
You really love them Prius'!!!!!! lol
Guy who dumped it on easy turn, too fast with no experience.
The one at 9:04 looked like the rider wasn't countersteering and was just trying to lean the bike while carrying too much speed for leaning to be enough to turn.
The oil scene is the best way to end the video, I laughed so hard. Out of every where to ride you choose that one spot lol you don't deserve your bike lol jk
I just got done with my first day of my msf course and I’m already in love with bikes. I have a ninja 650 as my first bike and it feels super comfortable
Great choice! I was gonna get one of those as my second bike so thats super nice that you got a 650 for your first.
Lmfao, polished concrete and oil....oh I'll just go through it, denied 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂....
5:23 what country would put a dotted line there!? that makes no sense
United Kingdom ofcourse.
I am still not fan of lane position 2. Only if I am in quiet or desert road. I moved from 3 to 2 on left turn and 1 to 2 on right turn. In busy roads lane 1 and good space from front vehicle. Car's can see me better, if there is a small object like a rock in lane 2 cars don't move and you won't see. Most of all focus focus and focus.
People who overtake on a blind bend/corner should have their license revoked immediately. Its not a mistake, its a deliberate conscious decision that puts the oncoming traffic in mortal danger.
I'm not a fan of too many rules and if it was my choice i would repeal or down grade plenty of laws. But this is one of those things I would want a judge to throw the book at them for! If you choose to put someone elses life at risk because you can't be bothered to wait for a suitable and safe place to overtake, I have zero sympathy for you.
love the idea of telephone poles.😍
14:53 “the speedometer is about 10 off at this speed”
- a man lying, trying to cover the fact this would have been his fault.
first clip "gaps are traps'
With regard to the clip where the van was passing on the dotted white line and almost hit the motorcycle head on, too many people blindly follow the given road rules and that makes things dangerous.
By learning to break the rules, you become a better driver or rider. There is a section of road on my daily commute that is flat and offers good sight lines, and has no posted speed limit. So i floor it on my car through there. But the issue os right at the end there is a hump that you cant see over. Right behind it is a stop sign and people coming over the hunp the other way for whatever reason like to cross over the double yellow line. So while I might go 75 through the rest of it, I slow down to 30 at the hump because i have no idea what is on the other side.
This smoothbrain van driver just saw double white and he couldnt see anybody coming, so he assumed it was safe. Nevermind the fact that he could only see 10 feet of road in front of him, and that beyond that 10 feet of road he can see, there could be people because the sightlines are bad.
This kind of active driving where you analyze if you have enough information to perform a maneuver should be encouraged.
Scared to leaned caused him to go wide because he started the corner from so far inside
3:50
Probably caught his groin too that would not have been fun lol
What you do is make lane splitting illegal, as in many states.
I don’t know if it is still the case; but breaking on a painted line may not be optimal.
I'll never understand these old women with so much confidence. Like lady, you're gonna piss off a crackhead and become "rape and murder victim number 45,038"
6:50 better question why is he following so close?
filtering thru traffic at these speeds is the dumbest thing "allowed". Vehicles just are not tuned to looking for bikes zipping along like this. This is the dumbest thing allowed.
Mandatory Gear for a rider:
Rated Helmet
Armored Jacket
Armored Pants
Real riding gloves
Real riding Boots
GoPro or some other camera to document for insurance.
Sure, but some people is riding motorbikes cheaper than what you listed.
It depends on where you ride and what are you riding.
I used to have a sportsbike 750cc 150hp and I was allways wearing full leather suit 1000€, good motorbike boots and gloves, 600€ and a 1000€ helmet. Now I ride a small bike and I just got a summer jacket with protections, a summer gloves and a helmet, all of it for around 450€, no boots no armored pants. I'm going slow so not long slide on asphalt is possible.
@9:00 I think they just got scared and stiffened up? Just a guess but possibly an inexperienced rider not used to counter steering yet fighting that reflex to just tense up and go straight.
Inexperienced rider not wanting to bank quik
I've been riding for over 40 years and prefer skinny roads. I hope I never have to ride in traffic like the first guy was in!
Filtering too fast is a major risk. Nearly no time to react and nowhere to go.
9:13 just a lack of experience.
The lady in the SUV will feel super powerful when she kills someone and goes to jail.
88 ... Mph? On a Minibike? He was asking for it. Even at Kph hes pushing the limits of the bike on those terrible surface roads. Too busy trying to explain speed wobble and not paying attention to the speed wobble.
I take that back not a mini bike. Dude just wasnt payin a damn bit of attention to riding and all his attention to talking to his camera.
