Here's a good example to how wrong can things go when both rider and driver fail to assess the traffic conditions properly. This crash could have been so easily avoided if only one of the two road users had paid a little more attention to what was going on.
First of all, it's the ignorant car driver who cuts the rider off, most likely without having seen him approaching the junction. However, taking a good look at the video, we could almost swear that the rider wasn't paying enough attention either: he had plenty of time to spot the reckless driver and slow down, swerve or even stop in due time.
Now, the speed factor was definitely one of the key elements in this case: the rider was definitely not doing legal mph, and this was a catalyst in the whole development of the crash. Now, it looks like both will lose their licenses...
