The original video was hard to watch. I witnessed a bike trying to pass a semi on the right on a main street of my home town, he didn't realize that the reason the semi was so far over to the left of the one lane road was that he was preparing to turn right. The biker ended up clotheslined by the trailer of the truck and when the truck came to a complete stop, it's rear wheel was about 1/2 a foot from the unconscious bikers head. half a foot from crushing the kids head.

The kid was driving way too fast and attempting to pass a semi on a one lane road on the right hand side. Luckily, the idiot was up and walking within minutes. That much power, thrust and speed is a lot of temptation for a young man/woman.
