Re: My Videos on YouTube
Great news! I'm actually surprised they had insurance, being that so many don't and the way he drove. Hope the police prosecute him.jojo87 wrote:Well doesn't matter now, over and done with, his insurance is paying to get my Bike sorted so yeah, over and done with, moving on :-) thanks for the comments and messages people, appreciate it :-)
Anyone else on here got any Video Footage of your rides? im subscribed to a lot on YouTube, only 1 PCX user though from London I think, dont think there are many others on PCX's.

If you were following at four seconds instead of two you would probably have had enough time to stop.
Give me the spade.

Re: My Videos on YouTube
lol you you
if I was wearing bright coloured clothes he might of seen me,
if I had bright Xenon lights he probably would of seen me (even though it was day time),
if I had a red carpet laid out in front of me then he might of seen me,
if I found out his number and rang him before he got in his Car to tell him i'd be at that street at that time then he might of been aware and seen me.
fair enough, but I was riding fine, and to be honest 3 seconds is quite a bit of time to see someone straight in front of you! he also turned too soon to even get in to the street he wanted to go in to, a Car could of been turning out of that street and he wouldn't of known and would of gone in to that, as he turned in a rush pretty much after the Car he passed, and too soon to get into the street, so yeah, a Car could of been coming out and indicating to go left to go up where I was heading, and he would of went into it, as he wasn't paying attention and turned too soon, obviously too distracted.

I'd of uploaded it but it is way too long..
basically my Camera flew off the Helmet due to the impact, that fell on the floor and you can hear me saying 'what the f*ck was that' and then he was saying I came out of nowhere lol like a magician *POOF*, and then a Lollipop lady and other woman came over, one of them was telling me to sit down, told me to go and sit on my Bike Seat which was on the floor, obviously after it ejected me from the Bike due to the safety mechanism it has lol and she rang the Ambulance, I got her to take my Camera and go around his Car with it, to get his Plate number and the damage of his Car, which was just the side of his Bumper, new Bumper and he'd be on his way again.... I was trying to walk to pick up bits of my Bike after saying 'my Bike! its basically new' lol was more gutted about that to be honest, the effort and money i've put into it so far and so on, and obviously being out on it daily.... he said a few times then that it was his fault and 'I messed up', obviously then got him to write his details down.... Ambulance came, checked over me, the woman kindly put my Bike in the back of her People Carrier and took it to my house for me along with my Helmet (I kept my Camera on me), i'm going to take her some Flowers and chocs when i'm better to say thanks, will also stop and see the Lollipop lady when i'm back well and riding again to say thanks....
but yeah, nothing much else on there, just a lot of Camera moving noise and waiting around for the Ambulance and Police.

Re: My Videos on YouTube
@JoJo87 - The footage of you saying "WTF" would have been sufficient. I had to do a little research to find out what a lollipop lady was. Lol. Where I live people seemed to get killed on motorcycles too often. Someone I know got killed this summer. I'm just glad you are all right. Most of the roads by me are 50 or more mph. With lots of traffic.

Re: My Videos on YouTube
Here is someone else I nearly got hit by the other week....
the fact he did actually slow down nearly to a stop at the give way lines, but seen me and just carried on again :-/
obviously I slowed down to make the turn so had time to brake as he came out,
but he braked quickly right in front of me,
put his hands up twice to say sorry.

A quick boot to the front wing might have been in order.

Re: My Videos on YouTube
I love watching the movies but I am confused by the way traffic flows over there. What do the zig zag lines mean, and it looks like sometimes cars are going in the wrong lane or have to cross you to get in the correct lane. I know. I'm an American and we drive on the other side of the road, but still, some of those videos look confusing. Maybe that is why you were hit in the first (or was it the last???) video. You weren't in the wrong. It just looks like there is a bit of confusion on the roads where you ride. Too many lines going too many directions.

Re: My Videos on YouTube
No confusions with the crash, only way is up and down, I was going up, he was coming down, I was turning to go into 1 side road, he was turning to go into another side road, but he clearly just turned too fast and not looking what was already there in the lane before he turned.
are these the zig zag ones you mean?

Not seen the vid in question but zig zag lines are where you can not overtake, as you are close to a pedestrian right of way.Mel46 wrote:I love watching the movies but I am confused by the way traffic flows over there.

Mate, not sure what's going on but the link doesn't seem to work.jojo87 wrote:Thought i'd post the link on here,
here is my YouTube Channel with footage from my rides,
it's around Cardiff and Barry (in Wales, UK),
just random clips mostly.....
also a few friends wanted slow-mo's of Bikes so Motorbikes/Scooters are on there,
another friend in the US asked how many Police Cars/Vans I pass on a ride, so they're on there as well,
so yeah, just random clips and idiots and so on.

Maybe need to put a few more cents in the meter?
Please bring them back !

Re: My Videos on YouTube
Hi Jojo87 I like what you have done with your videos. Do you watch Royal Jordanian? He is one of my favorites. Glad you're getting your new bike soon.
