If people watch your videos and actually try to retain lessons from them, youre gunna save lives, not a question about it.
he taught me how to become better for sure, i probably would of crashed if it werent for him
about to buy my first bike in a few months...you better believe I'm absorbing everything I can from Dan and others out there. Hopefully there will never be a 'need to save my life' moment because he will have helped me to identify and keep myself out of them!
You're right
What you said about who's at fault at 16:00 reminded me of what my motorcycle instructor said a couple of times: the graveyard is full of people who were right
Love your videos man. Been riding for three years. I watched all these biker videos doing stupid stuff, wrecks etc. kinda of a bad influence. Then I found your videos breaking down the dumb stuff I was watching. You probably saved my life and I’ve never felt more secure, clear minded, and educated on motorcycling. Thank you.
Yep. I have been on the road for 20 years. Zero accidents. When people hear that, they say "you must be incredibly lucky". I always respond with "a little luck but a whole lot more skill". When someone pushes further and asks what I mean. I say that I'm lucky that I haven't had any unavoidable accidents. I could have however had literally a hundred accidents where it would have been the other driver's fault. The skill is avoiding accidents where it wouldn't have been the other drivers fault, but I had the skill to get out of the way. By age 20 I had taken multiple defensive drivers courses and it must have stuck.
Maybe I’m getting older and a bit wiser.
When I get on my Goldwing I go down the road smelling the roses and the air in the mountains.
What’s it with all the aggression on the road folks. Ride to have fun, stress relief. Slow it down.
okay boomer
@@jvillain9946He may be a boomer but at least he won't end up as a skid mark on the road like the bikers that weave in and out of traffic at 120mph.
I was riding yesterday, and going through an intersection I found myself conciously thinking "Orange State- threat perceived" lol!
21:40 “I don’t think I’ve ever seen this, ever” oh my friend, here in the third world that’s just casual Tuesday.
3:30 what i don't get about this is that the second one is totally preventable. The second car has room to go in, as the biker is was not in the lane when they started switching. The biker then decides to switch lanes while the car in front is turning in and rev bombs them like it's the car's fault the biker switched lanes to create a space conflict?
The car was also already indicating as well. A lot of bikers don't realise that they are the problem weaving in and out of traffic. You literally cannot see bikes from a car sometimes, especially when they are in between lanes. Just because they can see the car doesn't mean the car can see them.
AngryD has a rep for being a douchebag.
Thank you sir! i no longer ride motorcycles but have learned a lot from your channel... would have saved me a lot of pain and anguish back in the day. at least I can apply a lot of your info to my bicycle :) Be Safe my friend!
I wish that many, many more people watch, practice and learn from your ideas, Dan. Good work!
Great content, as always. "Intersection = orange stage" has already saved me more than once.
It's hard to watch some of these crashes but it definitely makes me want to be more careful & improve my skill level.
5:06 Two bikers argue about who is dumber for weaving through traffic. Amazing.
Also not the best idea to filter on the opposite side to the other biker. They're drawing attention to the left, so people won't be looking to the right.
If I'm dumber that means you're dumber for crashing against someone who is dumber than you. Mic drop
(03:13) That appears to be the Grand Central Parkway in New York City so for safety and legality that rider should not be splitting or filtering. Lane splitting and filtering are specifically ILLEGAL in N.Y. .
Hi man! I found you some time ago and was watching a buch of your videos since them. Firstly i thought that your lessons and all that talking you do when you comment these situations are just okey. Then few days ago grandpa almost took me out (le was turingin left and didnt give way AND HE ADMITED THAT HE SAW ME COMMING!!). THanks to your lesons here i was able minimalise damge to bike nad mostly important damge to mysefl... finaly i didnt even fall down with the bike and almost avoid his car and enneded with bunch of straches on bike! Im okey and doctor after few chekups said that i was lucky coz i could lost my leg if not more. Im so glad that i found you and your lessons!!
Cheers from Poland
I would just like to say that your analysis and articulation of the issues are great. Education without patronisation. Very Smart (haha). As a returning biker I am perpetually in Orange stage and much slower nowadays. There's no old and bold riders...
That green dirt bike/BMW was brutal
As a new two-wheeler and 70-year-old, it is interesting and instructive to watch these videos from the two-wheeler's perspective.
What strikes me is that the dangerous situations often occur caused by the motorcyclists not synchronizing with the traffic rhythm. It is a bad combination with the fact that they are less visible than cars. I bought a scooter 150cc Honda Sh which is good enough to enjoy a wonderful ride and with enough power to follow the rhythm of traffic except on the highway. It's nicer to drive leisurely on smaller roads with as little testosterone in the body as cubic cm in the engine😀.
You don't have to drive aggressively just because there's a lot of horsepower between your legs😇❤️.
also look at the sunlight and the lane position
Im all on board with the biker community stealing the rubber ducky from the jeep community
Ah. A Jeep thing huh
@@DanDanTheFireman for now 😏
Don’t forget the octopus
Why not a motorcycle squid vs a jeeps duck?
@@DanDanTheFireman started during the pandemic. Fellow jeep owners will leave them on random jeeps as a gift.
when I ride a motorcycle, everybody has the right to go first, we are invisible. Dan we appreciate your work.
I love how you call it before it happens! Love your content. Like many others, i hear your voice when I'm riding..."open lane pattern, watch the left turners, intersection, orange stage" 😂
Will never stop watching these
25:30 was the funniest shit in my life 😂😂
As a biker, I say, this guy 10:38 ... THESE kind of guys are the A-holes that think they own the road and get pissed at everyone that doesnt part the seas for them when on the roadways. they give the rest of us good bikers (not A-holes) a bad name..
The one at 22:35 looks like the Eyrieux Valley (or looks incredibly similar) in South east france, in Ardèche. I know this curve very well. In this region you have a lot of curve that looks like they have a smaller curvature than the reality. I myself almost overshoot like the guy in the video the first time I rode on this road. Every blind turn on this road should be considered Orange stage, except when you take it every week for years, it is a road that gives you a feeling of safety and quite large (for French rural roads), but has several sudden trap for unattentive or overconfident riders. If you ever go to France and ride there or are near there, I highly recommend this road though, it's pretty and fun if you are careful.
Dan I was riding around recently at night on my zx9r and I was rolling up to a red light still going about 40 kph it turns green about 15 meters away and there’s no other cars and I applied the throttle in a intersection and a coolant line burst the back tire spun and I look back and there’s all this smoke but I gently rolled off the throttle and pulled the bike over your videos remind me to pay attention and stay calm when the bad stuff does happen thank you
Look at me senpai
24:16 Is why I decided to never drive/ride.
I'm afraid of going in and out of white-stage / zone out while driving/riding.
If it constantly happens while i'm riding a bicycle, you can imagine the rest...
Last one is from Auckland New Zealand. The guy didn't have his lights on traveling round the twisties on the waterfront. Highly patroled area, lots of traffic and known for boy racers at night.
Mr Dandan I really like your videos! I learn a lot watching them! :) 70 years old, 3 years riding. 2015 750 honda shadow aero aka "hilda-the-honda" LOL with 43 bone shaking horse power!!! hahahaha it aint goin fast but it looks and sounds really cool!!!
Keep making videos please! (Vancouver Canada)
Coming from someone who doesn't always wear gear: stunting without gear is insane
No way the BMW driver could see the motorbiker's headlight when he was in a wheelie. The rider is 100% to blame for this accident.
Lot of dudes have an attitude when it was there fault for coming up on someone then reving the engine like he's a bad ass. They seem to let the bike go to their head.
Hey Dan, appreciate your work. Near low side on left hander 23:15 the rider is counter leaning, this is a skill error that feels safe at lower speeds but eventually it will catch the rider out. If the rider were leaning inside (instead of outside) then any drift in the back tire can be corrected by the rider lowering the centre of gravity and standing the bike up whilst counter steering to maintain (or even tighten) cornering radius. Thanks for the vids and the commentary.
It seems to me thàt a lot of the anger shown is "Displaced agression" !
I Love your videos. I learn so much from them. I love the pause and clothes comparison on the Justin Powell video. LOL!!!
truck u turning is pretty common here in Mexico, we savages
That last rider decided to take part of the control lmao
If you have your shadow before you, you have the sun in your back but everyone who comes from the opposite side has the sun in the eyes and maybe can´t see you in time. So be careful, when you have the sun in your back especially on intersections.
Great stuff ...Again...Thanks mate ..
The rubber duck and monster helmet were no help at all in that first case. Shocking! Looks like riding responsibly and getting training are still your best bet for making riding fun and sustainable. Go figure!
They weren't a hinderance either. Neither blocked visability or effected the control of the bike in any way. What did you expect, for the rubber duck to instantaneously inflate and envelope the rider in an impenetrable barrier?
The place that looks familiar is Italy I think, you probably saw a few max wrist videos before when he was there.
Does anyone ever wonder what happened to Rokform? 😅
No, Rokform is still around but they suck compared to a Quadlock
@@dmathis510 I switched from quadlock to rokform. I Rokform much better. While stunting, my phone used to get tossed off the mount all the time with quadlock. With Rokform, it has yet to happen.
nope
Of course turning left while there is traffic coming towards you is always a bad thing- but one thing I‘m not sure about at ~ 18:00 is the following:
There are driveways all the way to the left (-> residential area?). Shouldn‘t there be a 25mph speed limit (or where I live f.e. 50kph)?
I can‘t really tell from the video, but it seems faster and in that case the car driver won‘t suspect oncoming traffic at f.e. 40mph.
@DanDanTheFireman - that last clip is in New Zealand. And, Hi from New Zealand
cookie monster helmet wearing, rubber ducky having riders are the crazy jeepers of the motorcycle world.
7:10 i believe what the video was really bout is the truck on the left nearly pushing a car out the road, also thats Why the camera was faced the other way at the end of the clip - to show how the situation played out
Dan. The UK bike tests pretty much INSIST that you ride in the center (2). Advanced riding training then modifies that. But, the UK bike tests (you have multiple tests to take to get a licence, and it is really hard to pass) take so long to train for, that riding in the center is ingrained by the time you take the final test. Insane, but, tests only prove you can pass a test. You then spend some time unlearning all the bad stuff you had to do. It is why so few young people now bother to take a bike test in the UK. The tests were made hard to pass due to the high accident rate where poor decisions by the riders was the cause. Even now, my biker cop friend tells me that in the bike deaths he investigates, 75% could have been prevented/avoided by the biker following the guidance you give. That is a really sad statistic.
That's me at 12:14. I wrote in my original upload that DDFM would be disappointed in me cuz I was in total white stage 🤣
I'm just glad you are here still!
@@DanDanTheFireman me too, man! ✌🏼
Yes you can see just fine with the helmet sleeve, doesn't obstruct any vision
I feel bad for the Beemer head on guy , but like you said ,Dan ,you are responsible for your safety. And I would think a bike in a wheelie would be harder to see.
Idk I think they are easier to see but that's just cause I love riding wheelies so my attention gets directed to others doing it
@@22smcrrider96i would guess it’s easier with the front wheel down because of the headlight
driver had the visor full in his face. He wasn't seeing the biker, wheelie or not
Looks like a full on dirt bike too. No headlight. So we have a guy doing stunts on an illegal machine with the sun behind him. From a legal standpoint , I think that biker is screwed.
Video starting at 5:01 mark - how could you NOT crash using this riding style, hazzards everywhere.
The wheelie guy also had his headlight pointing at the sky instead of the bmw which may have made a difference
That bike wasn't even street legal. It did not have any lights or turn signals. Would not have made a difference. That bike shouldn't have been on the road at all in the first place.
Idiots didn't have headlights on their OFF ROAD bikes and quads. No wonder the BMW driver didn't see them with the sun behind them they are practically invisible. That is why Gandalf attacked the ORC army in the morning with the sun behind them in THE TWO TOWERS.
@6:58 is a semi barreling thru cars
A line of sight requires a reasonable buffer.
My old jeep once kicked out and fishtailed on the white lines on a cross walk at a 4 way.. scared the hell out of my cause I wasn’t expecting it, as soon as I shifted into second gear it just completely broke traction.. the road paint should have a gritty texture to it so this stops happening to riders.. luckily I had both lanes to myself and was well balanced in the Jeep, not on a bike..
3:11 The irony here is just astounding. Lane filtering is intruding in others people's space. "Hey that's fine! I'm just lane filtering here!" But as soon as you perceive that happening to you. "Hey watch it asshole car drivers! Why don't you look where you are going!" Because they can't see you douchebag. They saw the two cars in both lanes behind them and they had room to move over. Cars don't see morons splitting the gaps between cars. I could care less if it's deemed legal or not. That situation is on you.
I mean what do you expect from Idiots riding without any protection and bending their excuses to how they see fit to not take any responsibility for their Actions?
100% agreed . This is the Darwin Award stuff. Not to mention passing in the curb lane. No sympathy from me .
Lel that last one is Mission bay, Auckland New Zealand :P 50ks zone
@25:58 Oh shit! I didn't know @FireDepartmentChronicles was in this video!
Dan: 'position for saftey' what a joke! The guy is speeding and threading- he will go down.. Biker ego seems the most problem causing.. ..
Right away doesn't matter if you are dead......It doesn't matter who is legally right if you aren't around to care.
I can’t wait to get my bike..
I’m a Daily rider and I personally believe to know how to use aggressive riding to get into defensive positions. Is this bad?
He did a panic brake. Bay grabbing the front brake.
Leave the ducks with the jeeps. Secondly, his space cushion was horrendous making the lane change, and I could be mistaken, but looked like a solid white line the cones were on, so was he trying to pass traffic on the shoulder? That's not good either
No. More ducks. Ducks everywhere.
Less visible to oncoming traffic in a wheelie
Dan I have a question about “Progressive Braking” and if it is really necessary if you have “ABS” Brakes and if it is how in the Heck do I train myself “progressive brake” for 1 or 2 tenths of a second before i brake in an aggressive mood that teach? Thank you for all that you do! Sincerely Jeff
You can still learn to progressive brake with abs. Abs only triggers during abrupt hard stops and you will hear the brakes skipping. So practice pushing your braking til you hear that skip and you will know where the limits of brake lock occurs and learn how to prevent it. Its more about gently loading your front suspension while incrementally increasing brake pressure. You just dont squeeze the brakes as hard as you can everytime like a bicycle.
The kawasaki crosser , when he brakes the bike will dive. This is what I saw , suspension compression over front wheel ???. Helmet cam would adjust with vision if on back wheel.
Front dives arms straighten. No Helmet till/ lift if dropping from a wheelie .
Cam roll. must have been Helmet mounted Possibly loose strap to lose his lid. posibly open face Helmet.
97% BMW DRIVER.
Do u need a license for big bikes in the USA ? In Europe you learn everything about riding before u even get a license
I put a rubber ducky on mine just because I felt it was lucky and I didn’t have a lucky bell on this bike. 🤷♂️
it's like... so many of these, where the rider is at fault, they think they're the kings of the road, just because they can move about quicker, but also snowflakes for being easy to hit and knock off the bikes. Play it easy folks, like Dan said, play defensively, and just enjoy the fact you're riding
so many people just cant ride
People riding in a hurry, no patience, drunk on the power of the throttle…..
still think lane filtering outside stoplights is just a recipe for disaster. People cant differentiate a car with a bike next to it in the mirror vs a single vehicle.
Also, nobody is checking for someone that far back. Even in cases where they aren't splitting or filtering. Some of these bikers come SPEEDING up to cars, and then get mad they didn't see them. The "get out of my way" attitude is insanity. Even if a car doesn't LEGALLY have the Right of Way, the laws of physics says they do.
@5:47 rider has no ABS on brakes
Wheelie boy may have had a chance to be seen with the sun behind him if his headlight would have been pointed forward vs the sky. He earned that one.
interested on the rubber duckie please tell me about it :)
No one tell him tell him the hidden meaning behind the rubber ducky
Not the BMW fault, because the motorcycle was wheelieing, which is illegal, and his headlight not visible.
I don’t respect wheelies. You’re at increased risk on two wheels by default. Take one wheel away and you increase the risk even further. Two wheels down and enjoy the ride. Wheelies endanger others and yourself.
Wheelies dont respect you either
Left turn white truck
Did he slam on the front break?
If the BMW has the motorcycle doing a wheelie, the motorcycle will probably be found to be at fault due the fact they were driving recklessly. The BMW could argue that they were trying to get out of the way, but did not know what the motorcycle was going to do. You are at fault for all accidents when doing a wheelie. 15:32
He ran into the back of him! Silly rookie
pause it at 7:14 lol
AngelRNot (spelling but guy on the red sport bike without gear on) needs to calm down when they ride or they are going to unfortunately become a statistic 😩
panic braking
How dare you suggest we "roll of the throttle". As a rider if another vehicle makes you have to stop accelerating or slow down, that is considered assault. God forbid if they make you touch your brakes because they deserve full unrestrained retribution. These are our roads. We should be able to ride as fast and dangerously as we want without concern for other vehicles. If we're letting them drive on our roads, they need to make us their primary attention at all times and stay tf out of the way.
Why rubber duckies? Because they are awesome obviously.
No sound
If the guy who rode into the kerb of the central reservation was distracted, do you think he might have been paying too much attention to his mobile, attached by Quad Lock? 😉
Minute 3:13 WAY OVER speed OF ALL THE CARS IN FRONT OF HIM
BMW was entirely at fault for the contact... but everything prior to and after the point of contact is on the rider. Those stitches will hopefully be a good reminder to not be a dumb f*ck... maybe his friend on the illegal quad will learn something as well...
That red mc guy will die someday with that attitude...
the most of these riders shoud not ride a bike. They are verry agressive ...thats not good for a long live.!
It’s a Kawasaki this time
i must disagree. wheelies are for juvenile showoffs, and we need to condemn them as irresponsible.
What about professional racers that do controlled wheelies to stabilize the bike over uneven terrain and to accelerate quicker?
I care what they do because these idiots cause our insurance rates to go up
Insurance companies do that on their own.
Angel or Not basically Karen on motorcycle gets irritated by most trivial shit then rides like hes got something to proof 10 years of riding and there is the most annoying rider which give all bad reps
Quit blaming others, we already know they can't drive... Quit trying to fight with something that'll smash you
