GMballistic Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 Just seen this on a news feed. There's a car stopped in the road and you're hooning along in your Arial Atom with your mate on his bike in front. Now let's test those reactions.

brillomaster Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 great reactions, and yes what the heck was the car doing stopped in the middle of the road, but.... i cant help but think they were perhaps going a tad too fast... call me a spoilsport, but there could be anything around the corner.... for example, a biker whos fallen off and lying in the middle of the road, like he nearly was!

350zedd Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 Not the best place to park up! Good job they had an escape route. Happens all the time around here with tractors, you have to be very careful approaching blind corners or else you might end up.......

coldel Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 Very lucky, for the first 15 seconds or so they are doing what looks to me about 60mph+, there could be a very good reason the car is stuck there, stupid driving on blind bends.

AMT Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 Too quick round blind corners... if your gonna drive for a bit of fun make sure you keep check on your speed on the bits of road your approaching Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasso Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 I don't think that car was stopped. Otherwise he wouldn't have hurled "are you ****ing stupid" at the guy despite pulling over probably 100 yards beyond. They weren't hooning it but based on the fact as people have said "anything can be round the corner" always best to play it safe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GMballistic Posted March 11, 2015 Author Share Posted March 11, 2015 Poor riding and driving. Very, very lucky, the pair of them. ...there could be a very good reason the car is stuck there, stupid driving on blind bends. Too quick round blind corners... ^^ This about sums it all up I think. My initial thought was that the car could have been stopped there (in that stupid place) as a biker could have crashed & he was parked there protecting the fallen rider. Couldn't see anyone though so the BMW driver could just have easily have been one of those idiots answering his phone in a stupid place or just admiring the view. As others have said you really shouldn't drive around blind bends or crests for that matter at any speed which you are unable to stop quickly enough at. But we all know that.
