While we first believed the rider in this video was quite unlucky for being simply ran into by a stupid driver, watching the situation develop has finally led us to call him a very lucky guy.
His bad day begun when a driver simply drove into him, and he escaped a full blow thanks to mere luck. The car hits his bike's front wheel and this causes him to lose control, steering suddenly to the left, in front of the incoming traffic.
The guy could have ended very bad in case the driver in the camera car did not pay enough attention to the traffic. Thankfully he manages to brake in time and avoid hitting the motorcycle too hard.
Finally, it's luck for the third time as both bike and rider fall to the ground. Should he have traveled a couple of meters towards the middle of the road, the white, speeding white car would have most likely hit him, with high chances of a fatal accident, given the vehicle's speed and the lack of a helmet. Note how brutal the swerving maneuver is and how close to a very bad crash things are. So you see, maybe indeed the guy was luckier than he and us first thought...
