These guys make almost all our riders look acceptable.  :shocked:  I especially liked the 2 lane splitters hitting each other head on.  :thewife:

The interesting thing was that most of the riders got up and walked/ran away! No so much with the poor pedestrians though!

And Americans aren't without blame either.  Inexperience is showing in all the clips.

I think that it's more of youthful ignorance.

 Some were due to the car and truck drivers but most were the fault of rider idiocy.
 I am certain that some of those were fatal.

Americans are so much more accomplished.

Which is why RNickeyMouse's YouTube channel has 267,000 subscribers covering a single stretch of road in California: https://www.youtube.com/user/rnickeymouse

That channel covers more motorcycle stupidity per hundred feet (which is why it is so popular) than any other channel on the internet.

Having spent some time in Russia I can attest to the fact that using pedestrian crosswalks is a little like playing Frogger. You simply do not dilly dally around while crossing the street. Some cities are better than others such as Saint Petersburg, but out in the country or in some of the more rural areas? It is almost complete anarchy.

While in Asian countries the rule of "mass kicks ass" governs right of way.  No such thing as a pedestrian crossing a street in traffic and expecting a semi with trailer stopping for you.
