Promoted due to its one of those rare videos where 'blame' can't really be given, it's just one of those things that were thankfully avoided
Good video
Thanks, Im taking the blame on this one. I didn't slow down when I saw the garbage truck blocking my view and was going a little faster than I should(not fast enough to get a ticket, but faster than the conditions should have allowed). I think you are right this wasn't avoidable, but could have defiantly have been made safer with some extra precautions.
Good video showcasing why it's on the Rider to be safe. I just made a rant video about how it's the riders responsibility to look out for hazards and this is another great example of just how important it is!
Glad you made it out without issue
Yup! no one to blame but yourself when it comes to safety.
They say never go faster han you can stop
They say a lot of things...
I was defiantly thinking that when I saw the garbage truck, and just hoping there wouldn't be a vehicle there.
did you leave skid marks in your underwear as well as the road
Didn't lock wheels up thankfully, but I can't seem to remember if my undies always had a brown streak in them
I think I would have cleaned that guy up or dropped it if it was me. Well saved.
Thanks, definitely good braking was needed here.
