The amount of riders that are triggered because a car initiates a turn while they're 80 feet away is embarrassing. Grow up.
Those riders would not survive here in Thailand, riding here takes skill and patience, it is not uncommon to get cut off 2-3 times just running to the grocery store.
@@Keenok They don't survive here either. 🤣
Go pro makes it look further away.
Couldn’t agree more lol. It’s actually cringeworthy.
Also, people that drive cars act the same exact way, if not worse 😂
Dan, your voice is in my head while I'm riding. Thank you for your contribution to the biking community and providing this type of education!
Same lol 😅🎉❤
For real though, when riding i hear dan more than my own mind-voice.
That clip of the 'chubbier' guy crashing into his friend before turning right is part of a longer video, that depicted a very under prepared/unskilled novice rider that couldn't properly stop at traffic lights and would go past the line an into intersections by at least 5 feet.
The guy in front was his buddy and supposedly was teaching him how to ride. Probably would be fun to watch the whole thing, though MotoControl already did a piece on it.
But the whole ordeal is baffling
got a link?
@@SkintSNIPER262check out Moto Control on TH-cam. Russian channel also did this just now.
The crash 'victim' is a big YT name and should have known better about his buddy being so bad (twice as much as DDTFM)
Did anyone else not see him COASTING with the clutch on for 5+ sec and then take the turn with the clutch still pulled in??
@@ViceFielder my question is why did the lead rider NOT use this turn indicator or a hand sign, and rely on his voice coms?
@@dttyson1078 There's multiple issues. If you watch the motocontrol video you will see that the lead rider could have hired a marching band, billboards, cheerleaders and any other thing you care to mention to indicate the upcoming turn and the guy behind would have still ridden into him. Guy behind was too busy instagramming while singing into the cardo.
But you do raise a problem with cardo's that people are overlooking and a reason I won't use them. They reduce all communications to the cardo instead of the observations people should be making.
If you didn't have a cardo the expectation would be that we use our signals properly and riders behind would be paying better attention to what's in front instead of singing to the point that the communications they're relying on can no longer be heard.
7:35 suspenders was singing you are my sunshine, when he was being told
Dopamine is crazy.
I didn't understand counter steering at first until I pushed a shopping cart to the right then to the left. I am a grandmother in my 60s. Hope it helps new riders. Love ❤️ you
I always wonder what the road ragers expect to change. Like, is yelling in their face after they already apologized supposed to do something? Hopefully he wisens up before he does that to the wrong group.
@@k3y155 let's not forget that the road raging driver laying hands on the rider is criminal assault. He's lucky he didn't get shot.
10:16 If ever you see a deer waiting by the side of the road in front of you, then slow right down and even stop if possible.
Deer have a tendency to bolt at the last second in to your path of travel as you approach them.
And there's usually more than one!!
Today did 400 km of rural roads here in the Netherlands.. It was awesome..
6:38 he has the clutch pulled in COASTING for at least 5sec AND starting to take the turn before his mate hits him.
Crazy!!!
The one with the passing white van in the wrong lane at 20:00 is why it’s a good idea to look in both directions before you pull out. Could be a passing car, stalled out car, someone crossing the street.
Really??? Nooooooooo
Always ride in the back when I’m groups. Especially if I don’t know the other riders.
Man your videos are a godsend seriously. I only got my motorcycle liscence about 3 days ago and ive been watching them since. I already avoided an accident thanks to your advice about progressive braking and seeing examples of it. I definatly could have ended up laying my bike down earlier today if videos like this werent in the back of my mind.
Thank you Dan for another video keep up with your amazing work 2 wheels brother ✌🏼
16:13 my sides 🤣
Controls can vary, make sure you drill them before riding. My BMW has a button for the left turn signal under the left hand grip-thumb activated and the a button under the right grip-thumb activated either the cancel button thumb activated just above the right signal button
My Moto Guzzi control to toggle through the varies windows on the display is on the right grip, not the left like I have seen on other motorcycles. Drill drill drill function before riding
Took me forever to get used to the indicator buttons on my F800ST. Now when I get on my V45 Magna I still sometimes honk instead of put on my left-hand indicator. Just BMW things..
I mean, she was pretty wild not being able to make that turn..😅 her brain just took a nap
I'm always looking up between the cars/lanes. and when everyone came to a sudden stop from 100km/h, I discovered that factory fitted ADV tyres, a single front disc and ABS reducing my braking ability meant that there was no chance in hell of stopping as fast as the cars. I ended up pulling and pushing on the brakes so damn hard with very little braking happening, that I had no choice but to go up the Gap. TBH the ABS has caused problems for me more than once, It literally refuses to let the bike stop in a hurry!
People in cars probably think I'm an A hole for doing it, but when I see a car I don't trust, I will keep back in the other lane and watch them for a minute before I accelerate past them & go back to the speed limit once I'm past them. I never want them in a position where I can't see them in my mirror & where I can't see them easily with a turn of the head (even though they seem determined to be there) and I need to know they know I am there. and with the bike being so ridiculously quiet, the only way they can know is if I am in front of them or can see them looking at me in the mirror!
13:45 this is probably the "close call' I experience most often. The car driver starts to pull out for a turn, then recognizes I'm coming and stops on instinct, partially blocking the lane. It's part of why you go slower in areas with a lot of intersections or parking lots.
One could argue the exam to obtain a driving license for motorcycles here in Poland is ridiculous. A lot of gotcha requirements and seemingly senseless tasks, but when I see the mirrors of that Yamaha in the first clip, it starts to make sense you can fail an exam here by not adjusting your mirrors theatrically in front of the examiner before you are even allowed to start off.
Gal in the left hand turn @ intersection was also staged up into the intersection and took her poor turn on a red light. 1, ya really shouldn't stage yourself in the intersection unless you KNOW you have the ability to go soon, and 2, if you can't make the turn during the light - wait for the next one!
Was her decision to turn out of the light cycle a contributing factor to her over use of throttle causing her to crash? Possibly.
Maybe she shouldn't be on a motorcycle 😅, I mean regardless, she had no control and blamed it on the streets 😅
23:27 there is a no entry sign the rider ignored, so they went the wrong way down a one way it looks like
Classic X-Men symbol at 23:49
love your video's sir, you made me ride a little differently for the better :)
6:43 I saw this clip from the front guys channel earlier today. The other guy has only been riding for a month and hasn’t taken any training, other than what the front guy has taught him.
That's why I prefer European system, where you need to get a physical exam, theory course and exam plus a 25-30 hours riding in driving school before the final checkride. US seems to give out licences after a weekend course on the parking lot, lol.
LoL some ppl modify their controls a bit, flash is nitrous to hide it, my aux lights for when I need LIGHT, they have a tap and hold for on. My dad wanted to try my bike and didn't listen when I told him that. Plus I have a rocker row so all the other things I have won't kill the battery when not in use, I may have added a... Few things to my bike lol, rocker row controls power to the switches for lights, speakers and LEDs, phone/gps mounts, front USB/plugs, passenger power. Heat gear rider, heat controls bike(lines and levers will freeze in extreme cold)
A bit of snow wont stop me, I ride.
Glad you're back Dandan. They said you died in motorcycle crash.....trolls gonna troll....
From the title of your video - I know exactly how to reduce accidents - adopt the UK process. You have to complete a CBT (Compulsary Basic Training) which allows you ride up to.a 125cc motorcycle. Then, depending on your age, you must get a special licence (A1,A2 or A) to ride a motorcycle. I believe in the US you can just get on a bike and ride - this is why people crash!
Europe, not UK
Got this in sweden too so I guess it's a europe thing
Nah we better than that. In the US you have to have a normal driver's license and a motorcycle endorsement. Some states require you to have a whole license for it which is like the endorsment(To drive legally anyway, we all know there are some who ride dirty and never got the license). I think a state or two you don't need a motorcycle endorsment just a drivers license but idk, you never really know with each indiviual state😅.
No one crashes in europe?
@@musclenugget92 they do but I don't think it is as common as it is in America but it also is dependent on what country in Europe
Here in sweden we have Landsväg 76 wich has a lot of crashes due to most of it being a small road with a speed limit of 80kmh on most parts and blind corners and heavy traffic so lots of trucks crash and flip over
Also people think they can do an overtake and sometimes it ends up with a head on collision.
But generally a lot of roads in Europe are really safe
Crash # 1, she stalled the bike and then as a consequence became fixated on the controls of the bike and wasn't looking in the right direction. That'll make your bike go wide, easy to fix. All a learning curve.
The guy at 21:30 almost died by rail, that is what you missed
Noticed the rider that avoided the crossing deer using middle and ring finger for the brakes. Is this a thing with experienced riders? What are the advantages compared to index and middle finger braking?
Id love you to react to some of my close calls an accelerate out of danger and a brake and weave
The stunter guy would do well with some motocross pads.
Or sanitary towels.
20:00 they should not be overtaking by a junction for exactly that reason but you MUST look to see if the road is clear before emerging from a junction.
I have to disagree. If you're at an intersection and a stopped car suddenly tries to cut in front of you, you need to accelerate and evasive maneuver your way out of there because you're about to be robbed. Crime and theft is ridiculous right now and these thieves do not care. They will run right into you and rob you at gunpoint. You can't own shit anymore without someone trying to steal it. I've had them try to jack my s1000 several times.
Hey Dan what ever happened to Hegworld?
19:55
Had something similar happen last night except at the T intersection a lady turned across my right turn lane and the left turn lane. If I would have been in a car she would have hit me front center left.
Its almost always a middle aged woman, usually in an suv
i think she stalled on the first clip
It would be a weird time to stall.. The car she's waiting for still hasnt passed.. Why would she take her hand off the clutch? The fact there's no jerk to the bike tells me they hit the killswitch
@@OutletVibes ya I watched it carefully again and she literally turns it off lol
@@jenniferferris44 comment was made by someone who doesn’t ride imo
10:13 Yes, like a horse with horns. (Let's see who gets that reference)
23:33 The car blew through a stop road sign which are used sparingly this side of the pond, and did it on the wrong side of the road.
19:55 wow, that road is dangerous as hell. You'd think passing would be forbidden there, but it's not.
@DanDanTheFireman In the first clip the bike stalled out, I've had this happen to me at a stop, its usually due to improperly adjusted choke, but I didn't see a choke on this, the bike didn't lunge so it wasn't due to not giving it gas while letting off the clutch. Probably a new bike and hasn't been broken in yet and it just stalled.
No, it's just low rider skill and lack of practice.
Nice 👍
21:32 I think it’s that fact that he’s damn near riding the white line. Stay away from those on wet roads or you’ll be going on the slip and slide ride
8:02 Since when do we communicate our intention to turn with a Cardo instead of our TURN SIGNALS!?
When you're riding in a group and not everyone knows the route. You still use your signal, but you're also telling people behind you that the turn is coming up. Didn't think it was that hard to understand.
@@jvillain9946 correction. You ALWAYS use your turn signal. If the dude in front didn’t use his signal then he’s asking to get hit by other riders.
@@DansEarway you don't ALWAYS see turn signals. Guessing you never rode in a large group.
Also I didn't say not to use signals. I said to use both signals and coms. So what's your problem? Besides not understanding simple concepts
@@jvillain9946 Always use your signal. It’s that simple.
@@jvillain9946 Always use your turn signals. It’s that simple.
6:45 if you are going to the right you should be in the far-right section of the road, to go forward or left you stay in the middle or far-left section, basic knowledge from driving school...
7:32 I think that dude that ran into his buddy has crashed into his is multiple times. Iv seen him wreck like 4 times
21:32 nearly hit the pole. Yikes!
8:15 even if that clown in the back was on comms, it doesn't matter. Front rider may have needed to emergency break or just slow down for some reason. If a biker rear ended me that's the last time they're riding near me.
Clip #1 -- Why many local dealers don't allow test rides on new bikes. 😔
Was that a Ghost?
dat beard doe
Red hat honkey tonk ended up getting arrested for it later.
at 15:00 if that rider was on the inside of the lane, position 1, the car could have seen him earlier and possibly wouldnt have pulled out on him.
Second video is a good reminder to not target fixate when you’re riding with people.
The following rider was only weeks into his bike. Still very unknowledgeable. His front mate is a big TH-camr (apparently) and should have known better!!!!!
But always target fixate when you're riding solo???
@@jvillain9946 I mean that some people will target fixate on the experienced rider they are with and end up hitting them when they stop. I’ve done it myself as a kid.
@@smashy_smasherton so I should only avoid target fixating when I'm riding in a group and I should target fixate when I'm riding solo? I'ma go try that right now.
@@smashy_smasherton it didn't work. I ran straight into a guard rail. You owe me a knew bike.
1:41 I keep being nude to your back and all that, but the only thing you need in this situation is the ship it’s the same on back the clutch and the brake and the gas. Should already be in first gear. I don’t know why she didn’t just go. I don’t know why she’s even messing with that shit. Obviously she’s brand new. this is something that someone with any kind of experience should be able to do. She needs to watch out and not get herself killed and take a couple classes. If she can’t turn simply she’s gonna end up getting herself killed. She couldn’t think clearly in a normal situation. What’s gonna happen if somebody pulls out in front of her or anything like that She’s gonna end up being a pavement. Inspector if she doesn’t do practice
Punching and fighting a guy wearing a helmet and probably armor? I would be p*ssed too at anyone running the light right in front of me, but that's not going to go well, and what is he going to accomplish?
Why do so few riders use their horn?! I honk, and so far, it's worked. I don't get why ppl don't honk. 🤷🏽♂️
First vid: I love how she's turning left but navigation says to turn right in half a mile...
Noticed that too.
"And this was the end of me riding LA streets" 🤦♂️
Girl, all street corners look like that. Next town over is still gonna have street corners.
You best just quit.
7:51 thats what happens when you take your mirrors off for "looks cool man" sake.
You cant watch in them and move out the way. Then get rammed by your buddy.
Both are squids 🤷♂️
The third crash, was caused by someone who doesn’t even know how to brake it is shocking he could get any license.
5:30 made me cringe.. He should have slowed down to let the car in instead of fighting for the lane..
It was an ego challenge..
Dan, middle of the lane is almost never the correct lane position. you should be thinking " where should I be that will allow the most amount of people, especially people who are more likely to need to see me, as possible." inside of the lane yeah you're closer to oncoming traffic but you gain a lot more situational awareness. sitting in the middle or outside when you're behind a car, an oncoming person wanting to turn left might think you are a gap in traffic and shoot for it. idk why but you cruiser guys love pretending to be cars and sit in the middle of the road.
@@TheDragorin Some years ago in the UK, a biker took a truck driver to court, because the truck hit the biker when it was pulling out of a side road onto the main road. The biker was cruising along the middle of the highway, rather than the middle of the lane, approaching the truck head on. The truck driver didn't make any allowance that the front of his truck would swing out into the biker's lane. The biker hit the truck, which went into his lane and he lost his leg. The judge said that the biker should have been riding in the middle of his lane and not the middle of the highway. The biker lost his claim for any compensation.
The UK Highway Code, that the police and courts use as guidance in prosecutions, says bikers and cyclists should position themselves in the middle of the lane, not the outside nor the inside, but should give way to faster traffic.
It simply depends on the situation, in curves and blind corners it is best to stick to the middle giving yourself ample room to evade but on the highway I like position 1
There should be a law that prevents women from starting on anything faster than 300cc or riding crotch rockets as a first bike. Women seem to ride cruisers just fine. Turn signals are the last thing on my concern list unless it’s heavy traffic
C'mon man..
