That first clip actually cuts off early. In the original, the guy walks a few extra paces and collapses to the floor as he falls unconscious.
Whoa
loses consciousness*
@@SkintSNIPER262 I fixed my grammatical error. In my defence, I was very tired 😂
@@Midnight_Snakk Nah you're good lol
Been used before too.
Rule #1 at traffic lights, is don't just gun it when the lights turn green, but look to see that the cross traffic has actually stopped. You aren't at the drag strip.
the betamale in the tesla behind me doesn't see it that way
Also, yellow is not green.
@@Johnsy1990 its also not red....it's yellow, aka proceed with caution, not slow down and stop which a lot of people do.
@@youngatwista well, no. especially in this case when it turns from red to yellow (red and yellow glows together in fact) you still need to wait for the green light to proceed.
@@youngatwista ???? at yellow lights you are supposed to stop if its safe...
Best tip I’ve seen so far is “ride like you are invisible” just assume no one sees you at all times , and ride accordingly . If the dude in the truck clip thought like that he probably wouldn’t have been in that position
Had my first red stage moment today. Someone merging from the right across my lane to get into the left turning lane just before an intersection (AU, we drive on the left). I was following the scanning patterns you'd described so saw it coming even though they moved so late I had no room to break. Swerved round them and had to accelerate through. Cheers for helping me stay upright :)
Proud of you for taking responsibility for your safety!
yes, watching Dan has saved me from many potential accidents. Purely from predicting what will happen before it enviably does and being already prepared for it.
Like for example the one with the truck in the rain. I would have braked immediately after see the indicator go on. Putting aside the fact I wouldn't put myself beside a truck or that close to the van.
This man has taught me to keep myself out of dangerous situations while riding. Being a newer (ish) rider, Im not as informed on the safety aspect of riding other than the bare basics. Dan has genuinely saved my life from the knowledge he has passed to me. God bless Dan for preventing 100s if not thousands of people from crashing from the preventable knowledge he shares on here.
I apply his stuff on my e-bike (wish I had a motorcycle lol), it has kept me 100% out of dangerous situations.
At one point, I would have seriously crashed 4 times in 5 minutes (not a typo) had I not listened to him (practicing in the hills).
That bit about being in a group ride all the time with every car around you was insightful
I was about to comment on the same thing. It provides an excellent visualization for my solo rides.
It's not the same though. Motorcycles in a group ride are more attentive and aware. Car drivers you don't know what are doing = watching their phone? almost asleep?
Yes, but now some debris is on your side. Where you going? @@cruisertom9587
@@cruisertom9587some are, but not the majority. Riding in a group of riders seems to add a whole new level of danger as they are often going to have some newer riders rolling with high adrenaline and lower skills.
Dan is spot on, I only ride solo now and treating everyone on the road with respect and caution seems to be a healthy way to go.
Dan, just wanted to comment that i hear your voice say "open lane pattern" and "stay staggered" in my daily rides. You have no idea how many times youve saved me.
One of my buddy has to see this guy's videos. He simply rides like a maniac and wants us to ride along with him.
13:42 Red light, looks like a set of temporary lights
It is, temporary trafic light for roadworks. Means alternated trafic on a single lane. Very dangerous situation for the rider, could have been other vehicles coming in front of him while his lane was stationary, a lucky rider on this one.
Dan, your vids are brilliant! Thx a ton! I am a safety instructor myself in Germany and can underline everything you say. It is really surprising how often in normal life sensible people leave reason behind as soon as they have a throttle in their right hand. And never forget: as a biker, you never can win, you are always the weaker one on the road. Even if its your right. Leave your ego at home. Being right but being in the ditch is always stupid. Ride safe at all times!
10:53 - in the UK, if you read the highway code, it doesn;t say green means go, you have absolute priority. It says Green means proceed if clear to do so. Just as the motorcyclist was happy to chance an amber turning to orange the car driver was happy to chance amber turning to red. Both in the wrong but as a vulnerable road user the motorcyclist ought to have some self preservation and assume drivers will be daft.
Some people are daft. I always check left and right whilst crossing my green light just in case some stupid ass decides to chance it.
the motorcyclist didnt even go on green, it was still yellow!!! definetely his own fault for getting hit imo
Even though he was on a yellow, for it to even be yellow the cars light would have to be a solid red. Both parties are at fault but the car shouldn’t have been anywhere in the junction when he entered.💁🏻
Bro drove into moving traffic and got mad afterwards. Even if the light was green you dont go into a wall of cars like that. Dude is either looking for trouble or dumb as hell.
@@ILoveMyMazda I would bet 5 euros the green changed right as we lost visual, which would have been just fine.. problem is the car, the car must have had red a few seconds before the bike got orange..
That being aware when you’re looking at the side of a car tip has kept me out of trouble a bunch of times in the past two years. Thank you, Dan!
Which one was that? Think I missed it!
I had a lowside on a roundabout yesterday, fortunately I was only doing 15mph. Hit a patch of diesel on already greasy, wet road, and my front end just stepped out. I was straight back up, gave the bike a one-handed lift and spent the next 20 minutes just pacing around making sure nothing was broken. Protective gear saved my head, my arms, my torso and my legs. It did nothing for my dignity, though. Bike got a few scratches and lost the end off the throttle grip. Gave it a once over this morning, tightened the headstock (two bolts had snapped loose), checked the engine, gearbox, brakes, all good.
maybe invest in framesliders, in case u go down at faster speed it helps the bike from flipping and doing self destruct mode
hope your ass is better now

9:21 “You’re in a group ride with every other vehicle on the road” is a great way to put it, Dan!
Why would anyone want to be in sitting in a blindspot with a huge vehicle… law of gross tonnage always prevails.
Yep, get out of there. And don't use your small squishy body to defend your lane, just put the breaks on and get out of the way.... That guy had plenty of time to back off and not get pushed off the road.
I dont even wanna sit there in a car ive had too many trucks try and smash me between that barrier
Yeah.......
Because sticking your horn on when you're sat in a blind spot is going to stop a truck on a foggy, rainy day from squashing you flat.
As a former truck driver, that trucker had no idea there's a motorcycle there.
@@allwinds3786 agreed! 100%
Educational CZcams channel DanDan, I am a motorcycle instructor in the Netherlands and I can point out unexpected events in traffic to students via your CZcams channel. Very valuable...thank you!
2:52 - He did want to wheelie it - but thought he still had Lift control on (in fact, he is in M mode - which is a custom setting for traction-, slide- and lift-control). Bike is a MT-09 from 2021+ (RN69) and has so much torque in mid-RPM, it's almost impossible not to wheelie it when accelerating.
'Stay staggered', that's the new mantra next to 'Side of the vehicle' for me. :-)
or as we call it here, bricked
Dude, I absolutely love this video. You bring science/logic/psychology and SAFETY to light in this video. I am brand new, but have had multiple incidents (not accidents) with road bikers and myself in my truck, where they have no common sense about safety. But this is an awesome and very informative video
Thank you for taking out time to make such an informative video. This will certainly help me on the road.
"you're in a group ride with everyone else on the road"...well, there it is.
I’m 38 years old and want to start riding bikes. Also I was in charge of the appeals for the transit authority in my country so I appreciate dans wisdom and knowledge.
Thanks to your Chanel I identify many risky situations when riding and avoid them immediately
Dan, you’re the man. Thanks brotha
I don't know how colored lights work wherever the guy shouting "green light" is, but that light looked red to me?
It's in the UK. When there is a red and solid amber, that means the light is about to turn green. The lady who hit him definitely ran a red light.
@@MotoHikes Thanks for explaining that to me. Lights are very different in Canada.
@@MotoHikesshe almost certainly did but red and amber together also means stop and green only means go if it is safe to do. Rider at greatest risk and really not looking after himself.
@@HawgRiderBCah, yes. Those Northern lights...
@@MotoHikes that means "prepare to go" not "go". in other comments ive seen people from the uk say cross traffic still has amber (to red) while you have amber (to green). so definitely dont go then. pretty simple
I’m getting ready to take my msf course on May 17th and I wanna say thank you for preparing me to be a safe rider🙏🏽
You are saving many lives with your videos!
14:20 💯 exactly! I've been practicing to stay within my narrow lane at all times as a challenge - have a handful practice videos up too! This new habit has saved so many would be close calls. Thank you Dan for sharing your knowledge and helping us ride safer!
Thats valuable tip. Riding on lane position 1 and 3 even avoids oil an excess dirt that will reduce grip before a corner, or if you'll have to hit the break. Middle position is always worse.
Great advice and information. I look forward to using this after I get my first bike.
These videos are really great. Safety when riding is paramount
4:45 - perfect advice - roll off the throttle, on the brakes - but no - he gets on the horn, fights for the lane, and loses to a semi...
... and in the UK in wet conditions you must maintain a 4 second gap between the person in front in the first place. he's doing less than one smh
Appreciate your videos man. Older i get as a rider. The more important these concepts become
Dandan. I've only listened to and watched you for two days and I haven't heard you mention at all the highly important headlights on at all times when on your bike. Highbeams in the day light the use of both beams at night. There are numerous times while driving my truck I am about to turn or cross a road when I rechecked both ways and sure enough it was the oncoming bike's highbeams that saved me from pulling out in front of him.
That opening clip hit home, less than a minute away from home with a new bike (replacing one that was stolen, 2 months prior) and I was hit off and his reaction was my the same as mine. It was a 2010 on a 2010 KTM 690 Duke and it was a write off. I’ve been driving cars ever since. It’s 2024 and only just now am I looking to get back in and I’m starting off low a KTM 390 Duke. Just so I can get back into the swing of things and learn from videos like this one.
one lane=better rider. I accept the challenge.
13:38 It's in Italy, here in Europe, when you see yellow markings it means it's temporary so it implies there's construction or renovation works going on, and if you look closely you can see there is a temporary red light in front of the stopped car. So dude was quite lucky all the way, because the light being red on his side means there could have been cars coming the other way. Cheers from France and ride safe :)
Been riding for about two years now, have watched your vids for even longer. Biggest takeaway I’ve gotten from your channel is to leave the Ego at home. Have had many near misses that I was able to recognize and avoid thanks to your content. Thanks.
Thank you!
The amount of training, both theory and practical, number of exams I have to pass in the Netherlands, to get the coveted A category! All of the things you mention are in the book; we all have to know them and the instructors drill us like army cadets on those...There are so many bad drivers (and riders) out there; ride safe y'all!
Lots to elarn from these eraction vids, I love them
I like how green light, camera guy didn't have a green light at all. 😂
Wow that first one...The brake lights come on and the tyres twitch on that car and he doesn't even react! His line and speed don't change at all, that boys a special kind of crazy!
Thanks man. Very good advice
One day I want to learn to ride a motorcycle, for now though the advice in this channel is great. Most of it can be applied to general driving.
Riding in Thailand, bit of a newbie here and I relate to 16:45 so much! I was navigating a mountain and it was my first real scare, quickly checking my mirrors and out of nowhere came a corner and I almost flew 8000ft off the mountain.
Great video! 👍🏼
Around the 5 minute mark, I have preached about this until I am blue in the face. I used to drive a truck and that rider was exactly in his blind spot. Too much to cover here, but put yourself in their mirror so you can see their face and stay behind them until you have room to scoot by unimpeded. Give them a few seconds at least to pick a lane and if you decide to pass, don't dilly dally.
thank you for your shared insight, truck driver!
yall be driving truck that have blind spots? why do you do that? is that a fetish!?
Yeah, that choice of position was insane, IMO. I don't even sit next to 18-wheelers in my truck which is significantly easier to see than a motorcycle.
You know what? Fu*k off. There is no such thing as a blind spot. If you can't see, get a mirror.
Truck driver for going on five years and new rider as well. Couldn't agree more. There was more the driver could and should have done. But on top of being in the blind spot the rain makes mirror visibility about 15 feet or less for the truck driver.
anyone else feel great sadness for the van that just pulled away from his fellow human around 9:12 ??? idk about you guys, i dont even ride bike but im throwing up the hazards, getting out and helping this man who just almost died...
Btw, in the first video ( since its cutted ) if you see the full one you can see the biker passing out due to the extreme impact with him and the guard railing.
Great lessons. Thank you.
11 In he jumped the light, love the bit when he said i got it on camera. Me jumping the light.
I am a new rider, I LOVED THIS VIDEO. I didnt think about keeping a pack on me, I need to get this asap.
Just got back from Gran Canaria and a week of riding those amazing rides. Constant blind hairpin turns alongside cliffs - believe me - you need to be able to take turns in your lane. Even having your head over the middle with a bus coming around the corner against you is a no no. And it did happen twice to me
Great vid!!! New SUB
That clip near the semi was already a big red flag. Semis have huge blind spots, and even in a car I either wait for an opening or speed past em cuz being next to them is the most nerve racking thing.
Although I'm a new bike user but by the Grace of God I'm doing the same things that you are telling us . I advice only one thing to all the drivers that " never assume " means do not think that you can do it without you understand the Others drivers are driving with you . If you are a bike rider my dear the world is very different for bikers on the roads ..the big vehicles are Ruthless. If you hit them or they hit you on both sides You will be totalled nothing will gonna happened to the big vehicles
@11:10 I missed where the green light was on… what?!
I thought I was having a stroke listening to that guy shout green light over and over. I've heard some colorblind people can't tell the difference between red and green, maybe he needs a test done.
In the UK for those lights to be even starting to be changing to green, the other lights would be a full red.
...don't get me wrong, the guy is an idiot. Just because you're right, doesn't mean you're not gonna get hit.
That guy was clueless all along. Sees multiple cars crossing normally and the car (at his left) stopped at the traffic light. Then says it's green lol
@@mickenoss In the US we don't have any red lights that change to green before cross traffic has shared a red light with us for a few moments, so that sounds the same as what you described. But we aren't allowed to pass straight through an intersection under a solid red light like this rider did, so that's why the Americans here are confused how the biker thinks he isn't at fault. He had a solid red light, does the yellow light he had beneath that somehow combine to make a "green" situation in the UK?
@@fuwafuwarowatari No, amber is still stop over here. The car may have drifted through on a yellow, but the biker should have know better imo.
Left side: Passing side.
Right side: Sui-cide.
Especially at 85/136mph (depending on which unit their dash is set on).
In most cases yes, but the biker + truck clip, was from somewhere in England where the right lane is the passing lane.
Then why did the truck that hit him move into the right lane? The truck wasn't passing anyone (Not being an AH; seriously asking.)
@@bmiller2011vids01 At 7:56 ish you can see the car(s?) in that lane start braking suddenly and seems the truck wasn't fully paying attention to the road. And nw, I get you :)
@@sneekibreekiruski True. I should have been able to figure that out because the other double lane is on the right side. Definitely the trucker's fault, but I'm willing to bet that rider never allows himself to get boxed in like that again though.
When passing or getting beside a bigger vehicle, I always use my pass light and/or horn to let them be aware of my presence.
I like to sit on the right or left of the lane depending. Because if I’m in the middle of the line and the car infront hits the brakes or I’m not paying attention then I have to apply brake and swerve a lot but if I’m right or left of the lane then if the car hits the brakes I don’t have to swerve as much I just have to slightly tilt the bike and I can go by the car and also eliminates the risk of hitting the brakes and the car behind you slams into you. But sitting right or left depends if I have a bike lane on my left I’ll sit on the left side if I have a wall or no space to swerve if something goes wrong I’ll go right side vice versa
Better late in this life than early into the next.
That's my go to mantra when riding
11:34 in the uk if the light is solid yellow about to turn Green then the red cars traffic light has been red for a while. Red car jumped the red light 100%
Green my aas . It was red
In the UK one thing I have noticed is that car drivers always tend to slow down passing lorries/trucks. Not sure why. Maybe they are worried about being in the blindspot too long. But the thing is, if they didn't slow down when passing they would be past the lorry/truck faster. However, I have always done what Dan has said; I wait for the vehicle in front of me to be past and clear of the lorry/truck before I begin my own overtake.
I drove cars for about a decatlde before getting on two wheels (silly me, I know... 😔) and the main thing I noticed about overtaking lorries is the effect of the flow field around them. First it sucks you in gently, as you come past the side of the trailer. Then it pulls you in as you approach the front, then it pushes you out. About halfway past the trailer, it also starts pushing you back.
That all happens because the gap between the lorry and the car is usually quite narrow, so you're effectively sat inside the lorry's flow field. That's why I'd advise any rider to give them a wide berth. We have a whole lane to play with, it makes sense to stay out of the aerodynamic hazard. Same goes for meeting one on A-roads and the like. There's absolutely no reason to deliberately put yourself in the path of a lorry's air blast - shift away from it if it's clear.
Given how inattentive so many drivers are, I would not be surprised if most of them fail to correct for these effects. In extreme cases, you might see them wandering across the lane somewhat. But the decelaration effect is more subtle, so it's normal to see more people slowing down as a result.
I went back to driving artics temporarily during the pandemic. One thing that was stark compared to 20 years before was the amount of cars that sit on motorways hovering back and forth 55-58 mph. It’s like a new trend. They’re allowed to of course but it’s not a good thing hovering around the wagons.
@@airindiana So many also think that slip roads are for joining main traffic at about 40mph. I've even seen people hit the brakes on those 😒
I will add to the "stay in your lane" while banking... those street lines are slick. So banking while crossing those paint stripes invites lose of traction
I had an accident about 3 months ago, where I dislocated my elbow. Though I am almost fully recovered, now I am a bit apprehensive about riding again.
Any advise?
18:44 Lane positions 123, you generally don't want to be in 2 because potentially hazardous objects/obstacles there that cars will just be passing over will be hidden from you until the last moment. That, and the better line of view in 1 and 3, as mentioned.
With the trucker scenario in the rain, i always give semis room in my car. I cant imagine thinking the trucker sees me since they have such bad blind spots and some newer drivers barely check their mirrors. I like to actually flash my lights to tell them i don’t plan on overtaking in the lane I’m in
Dude at 6.20 was following too close the the van anyway, especially in the rain. Remember, only a fool breaks the 2 second rule, so he brought it upon himself
The confusuon on your faace and the subsequent turning around was exactly my mental state at 9:43 as well
This gives me confidence. Because all of these riders seem to have incredibly bad reflexes.
13:40 - Stopped due to traffic lights. You can see the 'hey - watch out for traffic lights in 60m' at 13:32 which the biker blew past at a squillion miles per hour. Plus also the 'do not overtake' and 'lane narrows' signs... :|
I recall the time i almost looped my 2021 mt09, i wasnt trying to do a wheelie but wheelie control was turned off, after that ive just left it on and at 110mph wheelies i think thats a smart move lol
Checklists are so important.
Thanks
5:33 I wouldn't be in that position in a full Volvo wagon, let alone a bald-tire sport bike at high RPM.
idk the last time i saw a power wheelie that wasnt sketchy aF lmao clutch ups guys clutch upsss
It's hard to judge someones speed 12:27 he wasn't sure if he was going to stop in time or not - Instinctively we stop and not go faster. 13:39 you see the traffic light on red just to the top right of the car in front
13:35 there are temporary traffic lights in front of the first car, probably construction on 1 lane behind that corner
Thanks yt algorithm for showing me more biking safety videos
Idk Dan people get a bike and get used to speed, and they get an ego that says "nobody gets to pass me or go faster than me" and that attitude of pride gets us in these kinds of situations a lot.
In the video around 4:14 what caused the bike to lose traction? Was the leaning angle to steep? Doesn't look that steep for me. I keep hearing "trust your tires" but in videos like this I'm wondering about the reason for the slipping.
@ 11:27 'Accelerate.' Absolutely the right decision in *this* situation. The problem with this is you as the rider have to make a split second decision and sometimes we (unfortunately) make the wrong one. Every situation is different and often we must make a decision in less than a second. How do you know? Experience I suppose.
I'm glad I wasn't the only person he thought listening to audiobooks was hard while riding.
My bike was totaled July 3rd and I was parked in a parking spot and I can assure you parked or riding it's impossible not to freak out smh.
That was tuff to watch 😬
Red plus orange lights doesn't mean green light. It means you stop or at least slow down until green light is on and then you check that the intersection is cleared and only then you proceed.
Yeah state of mind is always very important or more important, especially if you’re emotional say for example if someone close in your life passed away this alone will be too much of a destination as ont to focus
Was that guy colorblind!? ALL the lights were red!
i am always thinking that i don't want to ruin my day or any other person's day.... so i drive like they don't see me and i expect folks to do some crazy things.... especially from what i see drivers do these days. it's better to wait to get to less traffic roads to become a tad more relaxed. just go easy w/all the crazy traffic and spare everyone time out of their lives to deal w/accidents.... where no one is a winner. i also tend to think what the car person is thinking... i know in my car i can't always see, so giving folks grace is always the way to go.
When i ride a bike I always take precaution and have a mindset whatever it is i'm gonna lose. So that make me took extra precaution.
Tack!
Thank you!
Is it allowed to overtake on the right lane in US?
What kind of head phones are you using
I only had one motorcycle accident so far. I was late and also was frustrated cause a lot of things didn't work as planned that morning. Wrong state of mind.
Yes way!
In the truck video there was also cars in front the truck braking, terrible situation. Only thing he could do was ease off the throttle and brake slightly. Driving near trucks are always risky even in open road.
Do u have a vid on how to use resq pack?
That 500X in the last clip has street tires and suspension, he was about as at home in that mud as I would be on my 500R. These bikes are excellent commuters/tourers, but they're cosplaying as specialized bikes when they're really jacks of many trades and masters of none.
Agreed.........
But I think as he was moving to the right to keep clear of the approaching car, he caught a rut in the road there which threw the front out as the bike just went left.
I'm not old enough to drive a motorcycle so I drive a scooter. I know it is nothing like driving a motorcycle but on a scooter you don't have ABS and traction control.
I wish I had filmed this moment but there was a lot of ice on the road, and I drove to a road were I tought I had more traction but I gave it a little bit to much throttle in a turn and my scooter just got out of control. I don't even know what I did to save it but that scared the shit out of me.
I slipped over 10 times at that intersection (I'm a delivery driver) but fortunately I didn't crash.
the day after I found out had like no pressure on that back tire.
Glad you're ok. Scooters are motorcycles! There are scooters with ABS. How a given bike is shaped can cause some differences, but there's really not a lot that DDtF covers that doesn't apply to any two-inline-wheels motor vehicle.
(Or cars/trucks, tbh)
Know your ride, use what it's got to keep you safe.
👍
@@TheCdubbleyoo thnx for the advise. I was lucky I had the scooter were I've driven like 1000 miles on. delivery scooters arent the best but I always have fun driving.
I watch DDtF for entertainment, but I also learned from it.
that day with the ice just also wasn't my day. my co-worker crashed on that same scooter before he gave it to me and after my first drive I didn't trust myself and I left all my valuable stuff at my work just in case.
it's good to have the experience but I really look forward to the summer :)
