Bet he got a bunch of views. Itās literally all they care about. We used to ask āhow much money would someone have to pay you to willingly spend a year in prison?ā Now itās, āHow many views, brah?ā
Iām so lost lol I thought the car was parked? The Wankstains on the bike, Iām def not driving up behind him like that though. Needed to stop and let the tarps move on š
Iām def not driving up behind him like that though
Yeah that's my reaction. This guy (kid?) is obviously being a reckless idiot and has no one to blame but himself for this, but if I was in a car behind him, I'd never get up that close.
The car is not parkedā¦.if it was it would come from the right side of the screen and the bike would come into contact with the back of the car not the frontā¦ like comāon man
Even then thereās still a good chance the car will be liable. The insurance argument would be if something stupid is happening - why were you still driving towards it, causing the accident. Same thing if someoneās recklessly driving - you, the driver of your car, should be mitigating any danger. Doesnāt seem fair but hey - thatās car insurance.
Because they don't care if they hit them. Dude is probably actively blocking the road doing this and the car got fed up. This is not a person rationally thinking of the best way to avoid an accident right now.
Look at where the car is in the lane. It looks like, when the cyclist re-entered his lane, the driver decided that was his chance, so he got as close to the curb as he could and gunned it to try and get around. Who knows how long he was stuck behind these clowns. There's no audio, so for all we know he could have been laying on the horn for the past two minutes.
This inspires me to consult a lawyer to develop a looney toons type banana peel launcher for this occasion. There's gotta be some kind of loophole. If Nature will not find a way to smooth out this rough edge, then we must.
Acts of God are typically covered without question so yāknow, giant hailstone launcher or something? Little bit of blasphemy seems a fair price to pay.
Me too, but I spent a year and a half as an insurance car crash investigator and my default is always to sympathise with the person who feels wronged. Especially in situations where the other person is a bona fide moron itās just unfair in life that some fuckwit gets money for endangering themselves and someone maybe just trying to get to work on time is financially penalised.
Are you being serious lol? If the car was parked it would come from the right side of the screen and he would come into contact with the back of the car, not the front of itā¦.lmfao
Wait, really? I am so confused by people saying they thought the car was parkedā¦ how would a parked car hit someone from behind? And you can clearly see the car jolt to a stopā¦ and the car would come from the right side of the frame if it was parkedā¦ and again it wouldnāt hit the guy in the back!
Yeah, everyone is an asshole here. The little shit on the bike for thinking the road was his personal circus stage, and the driver for inching right behind to overtake dangerously close as soon as the opportunity arises.
I would guess that he has somewhere to be and thought he had an opportunity to pass, especially considering that based on the comments, this is at an airport where people are often in a rush. Hard to say how long he's been following behind this biker for, but considering he immediately stopped after hitting, id wager there wasn't any ill-intent
Bc some people think they can do this shit. Other people might. but I donāt think heāll do this again so recklessly. Just got to hope the insurance companies blame the guy on the bike and humanity might have a chance
Looks like they were driving responsibly while someone else decided to play in the road. I wouldāve tried to get away from that dipshit on wheels as well.
This sub isnāt really about that kind of observation, itās about people playing stupid games. If you rephrased your comment about the driver in that sense, youād be more in line.
It was a rage hit, even if the bike was a dick and should be prosecuted for reckless ridding, the car driver should have his license suspended and banned from driving for a while, and prosecuted for intended homicide.
Neither the driver was able to control themselves nor the machine they were manouvering causing a dangerous situation by recklessly accelerating, and the bicycle is at most causing an annoyance by slowing them down, not real danger and not deserving to be slammed like this, at most a fine, a temp ban... lets be serious.
I do a lot of work in the trail world and stunt riding is a pain in my ass. People will do this shit through crowds of people. Iāve had folks get hit. Iāve had these āstuntā riders literally run into stopped vehicles. Since the majority of them are minors no real consequences happen. It would be a huge help if they banned them from social media. All they care about are views and followers. Iāve had conversations with them. They refuse to stop because they will lose followers on Instagram, TikTok, or YouTube and cops will rarely help with the situation. Itās infuriating.
Kid's a moron, no doubt, and got what was coming to him, obviously, but I still think this was avoidable for the car driver--they didn't have to hit him.
Well adjusted driver would not attempt overtake in this situation. I would not be surprised if the driver is the Karen type, always impatient and rushing for something.
A distinct possibility. There are cyclists all over the road; they probably feel entitled to go faster because they can. Add in a little time constraint, and you've got a recipe for road rage.
Look at the driver's lane position. They had moved pretty far to the left and would have safely got past the knkb on the bike if he hadn't swerved at the last second. Driver probably should have slowed down and waited but he didn't do it on purpose.Ā
Considering the kid is biking in socks and slides with headphones, weaving between two lanes, I wouldn't put it past him to also be blasting music. What's your next move after beeping?
I know this spot, too. It's the San Jose airport, there's an awesome biking trail that passes right by here. You could probably see it if the camera was faced about a quarter turn. This guy chose to get on a road shared with cars.
I've been flipped off by cyclists while driving a couple times roughly in this area, all not a half mile from a great bike trail. This part of town is amazing with bike infrastructure (I use it myself) and I still see entitled cyclists acting badly on the roads.
Thatās not fair to the driver of the car. Jackasses get off the road. Heās lucky that he didnāt get ran over. That looked like it left a mark on the road. š
This is also on an airport only road (I live nearby) there is literally nothing to get to but the airport. See any bags for flying? These twats are there purely to cause trouble.
The driver left like 4 ft of road to the centerline to pass. The little shit on the bike is at fault. Not only that, but this is a on the road for San Jose Airport, where he shouldnāt be riding anyways.
Had to sort by controversial to see someone with a lick of sense. That driver had every chance to see someone behaving erratically and not cause any trouble. If you see someone acting like a twat on foot you donāt run past them knowing full well they could switch directions and slam into you. Why does a chassis and airbags mean safe behaviour is not longer an option?
Had to sort by controversial to see someone with a lick of sense. That driver had every chance to see someone behaving erratically and not cause any trouble.
And the idiot on the bike is an innocent in all this? Fuck that, while sure the driver could have taken actions to avoid this, I honestly wouldn't blame the driver one bit for not taking extra care to save an idiot. The idiot should learn what happens when he acts like one
Iām not saying heās not an idiot. Iām saying that Iām willing to risk driving more slowly for about thirty seconds or so if it means Iām not going to kill someone in the process of dealing with their stupidity. Imagine not only the emotional stress of killing someone but the effect it would have on your insurance.
Yeah that child was absolutely wrong but there were consequences for that driver. From being late to whatever to the scratches on his car.
Did it take this conversation for you to learn that life really isnāt fair?
Iāve never really been impressed by people doing wheelies on bikes, but this one is particularly pathetic. Homie needed more than an entire lane because he canāt even keep it straight.
Iāve seen many four year olds do better than this.
Should not watch this shit when Iām on a conference call. Ppl seeing me mouth Yeeesss!! And finding creative ways to explain myself is getting exhausting
Headphones on, too. Extra smart.
Well, he had to wear something on his head, duh.
style trumps safety, you know that
Why? There is nothing in there š¤
His ears were protected.
Gotta watchout for that cauliflower ear
To go with the haircut
safety earmuffs to protect his ears from annoying warnings
Wearing headphones when cycling should be made a criminal offence imo.
Well, what else is he going to wear on his head while he's biking???
Probably listening to an audiobook. Really smart.
listening to Born to be Wi iiiiild š¤£
/r/ImTheMainCharacter
Biking with headphones is like playing Counter Strike without headphones.
he has com tacs on so he can listen for nearby cars
These clowns will not learn
Bet he got a bunch of views. Itās literally all they care about. We used to ask āhow much money would someone have to pay you to willingly spend a year in prison?ā Now itās, āHow many views, brah?ā
Meanwhile the platforms promote this tripe as it boosts engagement and therefore ad-money
*āhow much views, brah?ā
Next time take it to the next level and just wear a blindfold too
Warms my heart ā¤ļø
Yea, you love to see it
Poor car, I hope itās okay
Poor pavement.
Hope it gets a better driver that stays behind instead of driving into a dangerous situation.
[deleted]
Being a kid and do stupid things is one part of the story. Being an adult, seeing this and still drive into this situation is even dumber.
[deleted]
Ok this is why it's smart to run into them and ruin your own day and car? Doesn't make sense to me.
Seek therapy.
Car 1. Bike 0.
I think the car is pretty much undefeated in these types of matches.
Iād be so pissed if some dumb teenager scratched up my car like that.
Iām so lost lol I thought the car was parked? The Wankstains on the bike, Iām def not driving up behind him like that though. Needed to stop and let the tarps move on š
Yeah that's my reaction. This guy (kid?) is obviously being a reckless idiot and has no one to blame but himself for this, but if I was in a car behind him, I'd never get up that close.
I wouldn't hit him, but i sure wouldn't go out of my way to avoid a collision either.
Wait, how can you think the car is parked? How would he get hit in the back by a parked car?!
The car is not parkedā¦.if it was it would come from the right side of the screen and the bike would come into contact with the back of the car not the frontā¦ like comāon man
Yeah it did look like it was park to me as well. I wonder what the outcome was. I hope he had a dash cam.
Even then thereās still a good chance the car will be liable. The insurance argument would be if something stupid is happening - why were you still driving towards it, causing the accident. Same thing if someoneās recklessly driving - you, the driver of your car, should be mitigating any danger. Doesnāt seem fair but hey - thatās car insurance.
That was my thought too. Idiot is crossing between lanes, why would you try to pass while they are actively blocking you?
Because they don't care if they hit them. Dude is probably actively blocking the road doing this and the car got fed up. This is not a person rationally thinking of the best way to avoid an accident right now.
And then suddenly the driver does care if they hit them and wished they had thought about how to avoid it...
Bike is clearly being a dick but the car is stupid too.
Look at where the car is in the lane. It looks like, when the cyclist re-entered his lane, the driver decided that was his chance, so he got as close to the curb as he could and gunned it to try and get around. Who knows how long he was stuck behind these clowns. There's no audio, so for all we know he could have been laying on the horn for the past two minutes.
I agree, that's how I read it too. But I still wouldn't have risked it if I was driving.
Totes. Both sides, all around.
Can't feel bad for the kid, and no hate to the driver for running him over. I'd do it again if I could!
But insurance probably won't cover this. ĀÆ\_(ć)_/ĀÆ

Frog launcher
Seems pretty fair to me.

Are you being serious lol? If the car was parked it would come from the right side of the screen and he would come into contact with the back of the car, not the front of itā¦.lmfao
Run it in slow-mo. Youāll see the front wheel of the car was moving and the body move from braking.
I mean you don't need to view this in slow motion to clearly see the car running into the kid lol idk what these people are on
We also would have seen the car on the right side of the farm first if it was parked.
I had to watch it three times to figure out where the car came from. I was sure it was parked and I just missed it
Are you people being serious?
Wait, really? I am so confused by people saying they thought the car was parkedā¦ how would a parked car hit someone from behind?

I like the idea of the person being the idiot is responsible.
Of course he's got a broccoli haircut... š
Oh thatās San Jose International Airport.
I love this perfect reenactment of Paul's boxing match
Dumbass on a bike, but why did the car try to get by when the cyclist was weaving all over like that?
I would guess that he has somewhere to be and thought he had an opportunity to pass, especially considering that based on the comments, this is at an airport where people are often in a rush. Hard to say how long he's been following behind this biker for, but considering he immediately stopped after hitting, id wager there wasn't any ill-intent
Plus he clearly wasn't driving that fast or else he wouldn't have been able to stop so quickly and the biker would be in much worse shape
Bc some people think they can do this shit. Other people might. but I donāt think heāll do this again so recklessly. Just got to hope the insurance companies blame the guy on the bike and humanity might have a chance
Looks like they were driving responsibly while someone else decided to play in the road. I wouldāve tried to get away from that dipshit on wheels as well.
Driving responsibly means not putting yourself in a position where you may hit someone whoās driving erratically.
Lmao that was what you consider responsible driving? Youāre the reason why videos like this exist, youāre clueless AF
These fools are a danger not only to themselves but to others. r/satisfyingasfuck
This belongs to r/bettereveryloop
Any ins company reviewing this will not see the driver as innocent here. Driver was dumb to be close.
Not sure he was close as much as tried to overtake as soon as the kid went into the right lane. Then he swerved back in to the left and found out
So they both win stupid prizes.
I think there was only that lane open but the speed seemed a bit excessive.
This sub isnāt really about that kind of observation, itās about people playing stupid games. If you rephrased your comment about the driver in that sense, youād be more in line.
It was a rage hit, even if the bike was a dick and should be prosecuted for reckless ridding, the car driver should have his license suspended and banned from driving for a while, and prosecuted for intended homicide.

Maybe they did it for us.

A distinct possibility. There are cyclists all over the road; they probably feel entitled to go faster because they can. Add in a little time constraint, and you've got a recipe for road rage.
Why no hit head
When an unstoppable idiot meets a moron in motion? The car didn't think to give this dipshittery a bit of distance?
This is the internet sir, there's no room for that logic here š¤Ŗ
I had a tequila, ok???
Driver is more at fault here.Ā Bike-idiot isn't blameless, but driver looks like he rage-hit him.
I had to scroll way too far to find your comment and any other mentioning this. WTF was the driver thinking?
Look at the driver's lane position. They had moved pretty far to the left and would have safely got past the knkb on the bike if he hadn't swerved at the last second. Driver probably should have slowed down and waited but he didn't do it on purpose.Ā
Sorry brah, we didn't get the shot. Gotta do it again.
Well deserved.
good for you bozo....next time (if you can still ride) dont be a twat
FAFO
Makes me happy
I guess both lanes were not actually hisā¦ sad, I hate people being hurt, but in this case: what is someone to doā¦
This brings me joy
Where the fuck did that car came from? If I see idiots doing tricks like that I slow down and beep till they move away
Considering the kid is biking in socks and slides with headphones, weaving between two lanes, I wouldn't put it past him to also be blasting music. What's your next move after beeping?
Stopping or just very slowly following from a safe distance. I wouldn't risk getting close
āBro, whyād you hit me? Fucking car drivers never watch out for cyclists.ā
I know this spot, too. It's the San Jose airport, there's an awesome biking trail that passes right by here. You could probably see it if the camera was faced about a quarter turn. This guy chose to get on a road shared with cars.

BRAH BRAH LOOK AT ME BRAAAhhh!!! meeeeaggggggghhh * shit skids *
I could watch this forever!
So incredibly satisfying.
Dude is one skinny wheel and needs two full lanes?! š
Was this at the San Jose airport? I feel like itās the main garage building behind them.
Ugh. San Jose Mineta Airport. Thought it looked familiar.
r/oddlysatisfying
Ima wheelie BIG dumbass!
Praise Darwin!
This fad is going to get someone killed...
Thatās not fair to the driver of the car. Jackasses get off the road. Heās lucky that he didnāt get ran over. That looked like it left a mark on the road. š
I feel bad for the car. Sucks that a douche had to force himself into your way. I hope he pays for all of his hospital bills and your fixes.
More of this please
Ah decreasing the number of stupid people one at a time.
r/instantkarma
Situational awareness?
No thanks, none for me!
and also riding with headphoes... amazing combo !!!
FAFO
Lucky he's not severely injured or dead... crazy why you'd ever try that on a major road
Welp
Zero sympathy. In fact, kinda makes my day.
Watching this warms my heart.
Oddly, both are at fault.
It was also not a smart choice of the driver to try and overtake someone doing snakelines of wobbly wheelies.
Too bad the pavement didn't take all his teeth
Too bad he didnāt get turned into a meat crayon
YES! šŖ
This is also on an airport only road (I live nearby) there is literally nothing to get to but the airport. See any bags for flying? These twats are there purely to cause trouble.
"Oh, look, the consequences of my actions.
This must be everyone else's fault but mine!"
Anyone else find this very soothing to watch like, 20 times in a row?
Hope he didn't hurt that poor car.
The driver is at fault here. Should have left loads of distance upon seeing a rider showing erratic behaviour in front of them.
The driver left like 4 ft of road to the centerline to pass. The little shit on the bike is at fault. Not only that, but this is a on the road for San Jose Airport, where he shouldnāt be riding anyways.
Hahahahahahahahagahahagaga dumb take

That was close. Almost missed him.
Poor car
Happy day!
No comment
Is this at SJC airport? That building in the background looks like the giant parking garage thatās there.
Whilst he 100% deserved the road rash that is also some spectacularly bad driving
Ok but at the same time. If you see a moron on the road why are you trying to speed past them
Probably not speeding if it can stop so quickly.
Good. That level of stupid should hurt. I hope he took the lesson and makes better choices.
The car okay??? Hopefully minimal damage/scratches
Car driver definitely enjoyed that
Well deserved š¤¦āāļø
I'm hoping the pavement did not have any permanent damage...
What car is this?
Franks and beans
ššš
Eunuch by choice
Iāve never really been impressed by people doing wheelies on bikes, but this one is particularly pathetic. Homie needed more than an entire lane because he canāt even keep it straight.
Iāve seen many four year olds do better than this.
A wheely stupid thing to do.
CaR-K-O outta nowhere!
In Massachusetts, the driver will get cited for not keeping 4 feet from the bicycle while trying to pass.
I hope it hurts!
Idiots.
This is why Darwinism exists.
That kids should do some jail time and so should any fool doing the same nonsense.
What a bog roll.
Dang. He wasn't hurt.
Now wheel you get outta here?
That went so much better for him than it had any right to
Should not watch this shit when Iām on a conference call. Ppl seeing me mouth Yeeesss!! And finding creative ways to explain myself is getting exhausting
Awesome...a hero with no cape
Im just surprised how the idiot reached this age alive
Boomers: "man I did so much silly stuff when I was young"
Also Boomers: "that teenager doing silly stuff should have died because of it"
Seriously, that driver is just as dumb seeing the kid erratically switching lanes and still just driving straight ahead.
No honking no nothing, just gambling on the kids life together with the kid
Kid deserves what's coming.
Perfect
Iām never someone to wish ill will on another person, but it is so satisfying to finally see someone get comeuppance, for doing this stupid shit.
Good.
that car came out of nowhere
Is the car crying?
Acceptable outcome
Meanwhile someone missed their flight due to this oxygen thief.
Almost as if there:
1- should be rules pertaining to how vehicles interact on the roads. And ...
2- only people who've been tested & licensed are allowed to utilize the roadways. And...
3- those people & their vehicles should be insured.
I mean, otherwise, any irresponsible idiot could cause accidents, injuries and not have the financial ability to pay for the damages they caused.
I'd like to see police enforce this concept. It might also keep these kids from getting injured or killed.
If the driver was paying attention they would have seen him swerving in both lanes. Cyclist is stupid but that driver is also responsible.
Driver is kind of dumb, too.
Jesus christ, this whole thread makes me sad.
I know, way too many idiots feel sorry for the guy who willingly crossed lanes into a vehicle path while wearing headphones
The car driver clearly could see him crossing both lanes.To hit him we have two winners
The kid's a twat, but the car driver is a cunt.
