The blokes trying to get away from someone trying to pull him off his bike, while I dont agree with some of his riding, nor would I replicate it normally, when you're being chased that instinct takes over. 

 

Did you just say that you regard undertaking a queue of turning traffic in a different lane then making the same turn as they were waiting at traffic lights to make yourself as "acceptable riding behaviour"? Because that's what I was objecting to "our" camera bike doing.

He's gone down with the plan of pulling up at the front, but the lights have changed and he's most of the way past and gone for it. I'd have waited in the queue tbh but I hardly think it requires being 'charged for'.

This is what happens when **** heads meet. Camera bike rider rides like a complete tool and is waiting for an accident, which of course won't be his fault. KTM guy if a recovery driver has probably seen more than his fair share of motorbike accidents aftermaths but his attempt to educate the other rider is out of order, trying to knock him off his bike leaves me speechless. Home goals by both parties.

 

The second clip is nicely edited but obviously some argy bargy has gone on before what we are shown by their road positioning.

As said above.....

Time for a boycot of the recovery company I think.

 

That driver should be out of a job regardless as IMHO there was no reason at all to move over.

 

This is regardless of what a tool the other guy may have been. It is never excusable to take somebody out like that or just plain fail to look like that.

It was lucky there was no serious injury.

Whilst they both deserve each other I agree the swerve was inexcusable and clearly showed intent.

That should have been sufficient for a DD prosecution.

******* like that always seem to get away with this type of aggressive stupidity.

I would not have wasted 10 mins of my life arguing with that toss pot. Hopefully this will go viral and the **** will lose his job. He shouldn't be on the roads.

He's gone down with the plan of pulling up at the front, but the lights have changed and he's most of the way past and gone for it..

Nope. The lights were already on red and amber when he got to the back of the queue, and changed to green as he passed KTM man. And if he was intending to filter past the queue and stop at the light he should have been on their right, not their left. He's just lucky that the Peugeot at the front of the queue was so slow setting off, it had been me he would've found my car in the way when he made his right turn.

Indeed, but without the aid of an emergency stop if he was lucky or smashing into the back of the transit connect he was never going to be able to stop at the back when the lights started changing. Like I said, I dont condone his riding, nor would I be copying it but I dont think it warrants getting done for anything. Luckily it was a nice open junction.

Which makes it all the more stupid a manoeuvre, and bad judgement on his. As for getting done, it was certainly not legal, which makes posting it on the internet pretty retarded too.

I'm agreeing on the riding being below par, just that it wasnt worth getting done for, I'm sure the majority of drivers and riders have made the odd bad call, I'm of the thought if we learn from it then thats better than police doing people, I think he'll certainly think twice before doing similar. He didnt just post it online, he showed the police too, they've not done him for it. 

 

On another note, BJG Rescue have said they have dismissed the driver now, result.

Problem was it wasn't the odd bad call, there was lots of them.

  The bloke was being chased by someone who'd tried to pull him off his bike, I was cutting him some slack.

The later dodgy moves can be explained by that, but not the original dodgy undertaking right turn that started KTM man off on his crusade. KTM man's behaviour on his bike is bizarre, and in his truck is nothing short of criminal, but they're both bellends, lol. I don't give a monkey's that the original right turn was illegal (I'm sure we've all done plenty of illegal things on bikes), and the Plod obviously thought it wasn't worth bothering prosecuting for, but if a traffic copper had seen him do it at the time, I'm sure they would have been having words, and if he keeps making manoeuvres like that then sooner or later he's going to be on his arse with a broken bike again. If the Peugeot driver hadn't been asleep, and had set off from the lights promptly, he would've had nowhere to go (and probably would've been trying to blame it on the car driver).

I love this gem in the comments:

"Russell Butcher

It's a shame Darren's narrative was plagued with poor grammer and appalling spelling mistakes!!"

If you're going to play the grammar nazi card, at least check your own post is mistake free, lol...

Someone should consider sending him hate mail for even thinking being a grammar nazi is ever a cool thing to be.

Good to see the company went along the lines of, 'we don't care what the court said, YOU'RE FIRED'!
