Highway Accident:

">

I "always" try to be safe on my bike, but if anything like this happens, what are you gonna do? :( Poor guy in the audi.

looks like fake.

1. Poor framerate.
2. The truck looks CGIzed.
3. The camera always remains in the same position regardeless of the crash.
4. The car/bus becomes still almost instantly after the carsh.
5. If the camera survived the crash why the video ends so quicky? If it was a well done movie, the moments after the crash should be at least as long as the moments prior to it. The real climax of the entire experience.

1. Cheap Camera
2. Cheap Camera
3. That is kind of what happens when you mount a camera to a dashboard.
4. It is a multi-tonne truck that just crashed into a barrier that is designed to keep things like that from breaking through it,... They're likely in a much smaller and lighter vehicle,... Have you reviewed your basic physics lately, the parts about actions, reactions, mass and accelerations?
5. They likely trimmed the clip because from then on it was an hour or two of screams and sounds of emergency workers pulling people out of the wreck before someone thought "Hey! Lets grab that camera and point it somewhere else to really capture the essence of this crash!"... Or more likely the camera wasn't thought of again till someone found it and stuffed it in a bag of recovered personal belongings.

I'd love to ride a motorcycle, but I don't think I can be trusted to have the constant focus that is required to not get rear-ended while stopped at red lights by idiots talking on their cellphones.

Also, I saw

">this video and it reminded me too much of getting hit by a car on foot.

Well, seems that I was wrong. The guy inside the black Audi survived with little injuries.

Have seen that video on a TV show and the car driver made it out of it alive.
