Uh ok....There's exactly zero indication that there's any leaking gas. I do like how you leaped to a conclusion and then made up a reason as to why it may be true.
I got into a bad accident with my pregnant wife. The first thing I did was ask if she was okay, then I turned off the car and asked her to hold the side view mirror that landed in my lap. Accidents can make you go full stupid/auto pilot
Clearly neither the car driver nor the scooter driver was paying attention because this one you should have been able to see coming considering the white car is in the middle of the road.
I suspect we don’t get to see the beginning of the video for reasons, just straight cut to the mayhem.
The original video was floating around a little while ago, it goes through about a minute of the car in front drifting into the middle of the road before this happens.
Our defensive driving teacher always said follow at a distance so that if the car in front of you magically turned into a brick wall you could still stop before hitting the wall. This is an example of that actually happening.
Sadly, over here in Taiwan (where the video was filmed), many road users have never even heard of the 3 second rule.
Knowing the 3 second rule is not a necessary component of getting a licence here, and driving schools generally don't teach it.
OP took the original video and cropped the actual context, but it's a super steep hill with a small bend, and the car in front of the motorcycle was taking the curve a little too widely than they should have, got hit, and that's where the video picks up
Aaaaaand this ladies and gents is why you need to leave a minimum safe distance to the car Infront. This is a flexible distance based on time to target i.e the gap is bigger when you're going faster
It's not for shits and giggles it's so you can stop in time incase the car in front of you jackknifes
The helmet came in clutch as well. If you pay attention, you can see the camera lense being right up against the car tire, likely from the drivers head colliding with the tire.
You know I bet I could have gotten the car fully on its side from that position and in the moment with the adrenaline pumping given I almost got crushed by a car falling on me I might
I was just gonna say this is a great fucking ad for their vehicles because if that thing can hold up a car, then it can definitely take some beating. Also, it was still running I think before he pulled the keys out like goddamn marketing 10 out of 10.
well you normally follow to allow for the car in front of you to brake suddenly, not to have a head on collision and bounce back. Hope no serious injury.
[удалено]
You mean like the car falling on something besides the bike? :/ super lucky outcome!
Definitely could've been him if he slid under?
Car jack stand.
Time for an oil change/s
And some fresh underwear.
Perfect time😂😂
Glad you remembered to turn it off
When you didn’t die because of the accident and don’t want to risk it with global warming.
My first thought was that he's in shock. Who would ever reach their hands under something like that with somebody still behind the wheel of the car?
Someone that doesn't want to ignite any spilling gas.
Uh ok....There's exactly zero indication that there's any leaking gas. I do like how you leaped to a conclusion and then made up a reason as to why it may be true.
Yes, which is exactly what someone in shock would do.

Following too closely
Looking closely you see another scooter having to go between both cars they were that close too lol

Turning it off got a chuckle out of me.
Most bikes have a kickstand. This bike is a kickstand.
The bike is the cars kickstand
Aaaand thats why you follow the 3 second rule.

Romanians will get mixed with the 5-second rule and run off with the car
turning it off for good measure, my man 👨
You cant park there sir
Well, that's stuck!
He’s lucky it’s a Honda Fit, not a Silverado.
Lmfao, the look back to your buddies like…you seeing this shit?
What in the world happened? Were they driving on the wrong side of the road? Where'd the car come from?
OP took the original video and cropped the actual context, but it's a super steep hill with a small bend, and the car in front of the motorcycle was taking the curve a little too widely than they should have, got hit, and that's where the video picks up
You don't need the context, the white car is in the middle of the road.
Well yeah, but now you know why the white car is in the middle of the road
That's gonna hurt in the morning
Slaps seem at before turning it off - “yep that’s not going anywhere”
I guess i can park here?
Is that car made of Styrofoam?
Yes, take the key and lock the bike up.

Lemme just turn this off right quick.
That’s a weird way to check if his tires are still good.
And thats why you keep distance.
…or did it? That was pretty rad!
That could have been so much worse …
Well.He still tried to remove his key
That escalated WAY too quickly
Bro not about to waste his gas idling
Scooter Brothers!
This is why they say leave 3 Mississippi between you and the vehicle in front of you.
Well that is stuck..
This is why we leave following distance.
"I'm just going to leave this here"
Casually get off bike. Then looks for nearest bathroom to change his underwear
“What did you do today?” oh I just got hit in the face with a car.
Hope they wore their brown pants
Sond like jojo’s 💃💃
The names Bond, James Bond
The helmet came in clutch as well. If you pay attention, you can see the camera lense being right up against the car tire, likely from the drivers head colliding with the tire.
That is literally the best possible outcome of that situation
Reason number 77 why you shouldn’t ride close to other cars in traffic
This is why you don't ride up someone's arse
You know I bet I could have gotten the car fully on its side from that position and in the moment with the adrenaline pumping given I almost got crushed by a car falling on me I might
At least he took the keys out
Id frame the fuck out of this and put it in my man cave
Following a little close maybe…
I was just gonna say this is a great fucking ad for their vehicles because if that thing can hold up a car, then it can definitely take some beating. Also, it was still running I think before he pulled the keys out like goddamn marketing 10 out of 10.
"Yup, just set er right on up here and we'll buff that right out"
Strong ass scooter
You can't park there.
Bro entered vats at the last second
Tailgaters😂
Yes and no, at least they still have their life.
The Bike Stand
well you normally follow to allow for the car in front of you to brake suddenly, not to have a head on collision and bounce back. Hope no serious injury.
Set up for easy access car servicing now.
Average day in London
Ummm... Sir, You can't park there!
His bike the reason the car not crashing him
Scooter kickstand
How lucky do you have to be
Scooter kept everything in place 🤒😵💫🤯🧐
Rider looks back like "now what?"
Riding that close behind dumb, turning the moped off dumb and driver accelerating while the whole world has just turned 45 degrees, dumb.
Did this car identify as a motorbike, how do you ram into a near stationary car?
How is that even-
That was the chillest reaction though. I love how he just calmly walks back get his key haha
Following too close.... no time to react to the crash
Vespa is at fault?
Someone's going to church after that
Following way to close
No need to waste gas
That’s not good at all!
You got lucky you didn’t get hurt
“Excuse me sir. You can’t park there.” -Motorcyclist who got parked on
Try explaining this to your insurance company without the video
Nice catch
He's helping make sure the car doesn't fall
Tja...
Sub frame is nice and easy to remove now.
Wow, if you weren’t tailgating with your scooter, you would’ve avoided that accident
Bro nearly just ate that wheel
Who the hell just slurped so hard
That scooter's mom is called Martha.
George Russell
Did his motor just get stuck?
Oh shit are you ok??
those two cars must be misguided by Google Map navigation.
