Just watched him talking about it. I think that we've all been in similar circumstances but his luck wasn't with him when it mattered. You've always got to be looking at what traffic is in front of you - always treat it like a wall.

edit: added video
Ok, I'm done. I can't listen to him one minute longer. Why does he chat with us as he filters between so Many cars. Seriously? Does he trust all those drivers to stay put? Tell ya what, good chance he'd end up d__d riding like that in New York. Sorry, that's plum crazy.
Bear, this is the vid right...where he broke his arm? (he's in a sling). He claims he has broken quite a few bones during his riding career. He says this break is the worst of them all (pain wise). Ok, so what has he/have we learned?
I like most of his videos, but please...isn't it time to wise up?
Done.

When my wife and I ride I noticed long ago that she tailgates on her bike. I have mentioned it 1,000 times, and she has ignored me 1,000 times. Then we were in an accident. Now she has learned and is afraid to ride.
Some people have to learn the hard way...and some people never learn. That is why we have the Darwin Awards.
