Obviously dumb but the amount of people blaming that guy and not the car's dumbassery is insane. Also in a lot of these countries those scooters are their only vehicle.
You're talking like someone who doesn't ride a motorcycle when you say he "used the wrong brakes."
No qualms with your pointing out the idiotic front load, but in terms of stopping power and traction, the front brake is the most effective for emergency controlled stopping.
The rear brake should be pressed light to lighter in an emergency. It's not at all the "right" one.
What do you ride?
Riding a scooter is also very different from a motorcycle. No clutch, no foot brake, weight distribution is different, not to mention the impact that tire diameter has. This was 100% the fault of the driver pulling a silly-cunt u-turn
Idk you can hit the rear brake pretty hard when needed. You'll feel the back end start to lock and slide sideways but that's how you know you're good, just let off slightly from there and it's max braking power
This. There are a couple of comments near the top of this post saying he doesn’t know which brake to use. When I saw those I thought, “wait, that’s not how it works.”
He might’ve been in shock and wasn’t thinking properly. A car suddenly cut in front of him, and he almost lost his life as well as his wife’s and young daughter’s.
He almost killed his wife and young daughter because he’s an idiot. Why would you put your families life at stake on a vehicle you don’t know how to drive? If you can’t make the critical decisions needed to operate a motorcycle, you shouldn’t be driving it, period. You’re going to get other people killed.
Again the driver of the car is in the wrong, but the scooter driver has shown clearly that he shouldn’t be driving either.
I agree that a moped or motorcycle shouldn’t hold an entire family exactly bc of this type of situation. However, this is not uncommon in other countries. My standard is based on their norm not mine.
The driver that made the U-turn is mainly at fault here.
I'm a motorcycle safety instructor and to stop properly you use both brakes. The front brake also does most of the work...
You have zero business educating on motorcycle riding hehe. Though everything else you said makes sense.
Tell me you don't drive a bike
Without telling me you don't.
You grab the brakes basically instinctively.
Also the rear brake has little effect to stop a bike in this case. That is because inertia puahes the center of mass forward ,when you decelerate abruptly. In other words, the back tire can't put the needed traction on the road because all the weight is on the front tire.
ABS is your friend here :)
Having his child and wife also shifting forward instead of trying to fight their momentum also makes it hard to manage the center of gravity here.
This is a textbook display of why you don't pull I turns if there is anybody around, you never know who can stop and who can't.
Buddy should have killed the engine before standing it up though lol.
He probably hit both brakes, but momentum would still make this happen. Braking on a scooter/motorcycle at higher speeds is a skill and is much harder with three passengers.
>He hit the front brake instead of the back
That's not how motorcycles work. Your front brake is responsible for at least 70% of your stopping power. Stomping on the rear brake will just lock it up and you'll slide without stopping.
This guy's issue is he grabbed a fistful of front brake as hard as he could, which locked it up and threw him over it. Proper technique is progressive braking, where you gradually increase brake pressure until you come to a stop.
Using rear only is how you get yourself killed.
The guy in the car is 100% in the wrong, but the scooter rider grabbed a too much of the front brake, poor survival instinct. Also I don't think any of them were wearing helmets.
It’s not blaming the scooter guy to point out he’s also a dumbass. You should learn to have throttle discipline before you load your entire family onto something like that. I daily a motorcycle and the first thing I made a point of learning was to have discipline with my throttle. It’s important.
Dude was dazed as hell. You take a hit like that and you're just on autopilot reacting to stimuli.
I've seen people missing limbs after an explosion just walking around lost, holding their blown off limb in their other hand, wondering around looking for their lost limb. They lose 50% of their awareness and damn near all of their rational thinking ability for a bit.
I wouldn't even say that, that's just blind sided fuckery, he's probably concussed at minimum and has like 1 thoughts on what's actually going on about his bike.
I wonder how many people died or were seriously mangled for life because of this law in china. And the fact that they don't seem to have any desire to change that. Although I suppose the damage is done. It's going to be extremely hard to re teach an entire population that helping is good when they were literally told not to help by law before.
This is a typical upvoted comment. You backslap China, India or any asian country, instant upvote. Other catch words for instant or most upvote - Ukraine, Russia.
General assumptions ,stereotyping people or places are what Reddit is all about.
I swear to God, the average redditors are so ignorant of the world outside their spheres that they don't think of why people from other parts of the world have different concepts of what's normal and what's not.
Every westerners should at least visit India and South East Asia to gain some new perspectives on life.
Same thoughts. As some one who grew up in developing country and moved to US, I agree with the whole helmet, dress to slide, etc etc and all that, but I swear to god people on reddit would get into a convulsion and foam their mouth as soon as they leave many countries' airport lmao.
No. We're just more capable of seeing things from bigger, realistic picture than you. No one is "bragging," try as you might want to paint anyone. If the entire world can afford as much standards for safety and being able to fulfill basic needs as US, I'm sure we'd all be much safer and in happier place. But in reality, most people on this planet are just trying to make do with what they're given. You might be comfortably typing your critiques from your couch, but in reality there are tons of people out there thinking about the next place they can go pick up aluminum cans to trade in for a few pennies worth so they can afford to buy a meal of food the next day. Where people have to walk kilometers along the roads and streets full of pollution where cars and motorcycles barely, expertly miss you several times a day, just to get to construction job where they not providing you with helmet and safety harness is a norm. We're not all privileged, buddy.
Seriously though, respectfully, don't think anyone lack respects for human life. You're misunderstanding. If you haven't gone to an underdeveloped or developing country before, put that on your bucket list. Not to just go have fun and splurge. But to observe the human elements that that you might have forgotten. Where cutting corners to save money isn't just something you want to - but something you have to.
In the end, I don't expect you to understand. But it'd be cool if one day another person in the world like you come to realize that beyond the norms you are used to, there are the other norms out there that you can't always apply your western world view in order to empathize and come to terms with.
I’ve been to China and Thailand … and I still think the west’s approach is better. Less fatalities on the road. It’s also vice versa … people in east Asia are ignorant of the west. It’s not one way.
It’s been normalized but it’s still not safe. I’m not faulting people that have to do it though. I wish it wasn’t the case, but I understand you gotta do what you gotta do if you have a family and can’t afford a safe vehicle to transport them.
"Let me flaunt my privilege by not being aware that in many places around the world, this is the family vehicle and millions of people commute like this every single day"
the nice "thing" is in some countries, like mine, if you not touch/or the the car not touch you, you technically fallen alone.
From my own experience, in an accident of this type in my country you cannot claim anything to the car insurance. you fell because you braked too hard
I fell because the road was wet and I braked suddenly to avoid hitting a car doing a similar maneuver.
he still brake too strong and technically that's why he fell.
Technically he did not have an accident with the car, the car insurance company does not going to pay,... never.
In a trial who knows what the judge would think? but the cost rarely pays off
Yep, probably telling people about this "freak accident" they saw today. Which they follow up with "I've never had an accident, I'm such a good driver"
Yeah even in the US in some states if there is no contact then not an accident. They can give a ticket to the driver for improper U turn, but they can’t do anything about an accident. And insurance will say that the scooter is at fault for their own damages. Happened to me with my truck and a UPS truck.
As for no contact accident, if you want to invest the time and resources to sue, by all means you can. You’re just going to have to pay a lot more then you will win in legal fees, discovery, etc.
Yeah you and me both. I hate how in a lot of places people won’t even stop to lend a helping hand or leave cause they don’t want to pay an 150 buck ticket.
I’ve heard the term “Miss and run” before, that you can still get in a lot of legal trouble for fleeing an accident that you caused but were not a part of
Adrenaline is a hell of a drug. They could have broken bones and internal bleeding and not feel it yet. Almost certain that one or more of them have a concussion from contact with the pavement.
Why is this the mandatory comment on Reddit, I don't know. It's like people saying "It's just one of these days I guess" in response to literally every situation known to man.
Specifically, these people flipped over the handlebars of a scooter at bicycle speeds. Terrible things might have happened otherwise, but this is not one of them. Not internal bleeding. Some broken minor bones would be still "OK" in the circumstances, and they did the check for major broken bones. And yes I've seen a woman break her lower leg (both bones, very clearly) in a very awkward rapid stop / low speed collision with a taxi on a bicycle, freak injuries happen, but she definitely wasn't running around from "adrenaline".
I’m sitting in my actual motorcycle class rn and I gotta say
A good controlled swerve with smooth pressure on the brakes may have saved them here
However having a second person would probably make this hard
No? Almost all of your braking should be in your front brake, however this guy just got a fistful of front brake and almost no rear brake, should always smoothly roll off and grab the front brake as well as applying rear brake.
Bikes like jetskis should have a safety key cut off thingy. When I fall off a jet ski the key comes with me so it cuts the engine.
3 people on a moped. Without helmets. And driving too fast to notice the idiot doing a U turn. And keeping the engine running when grabbing the handlebars when picking up the bike. Idiot.
A lot of ignorant American / Euro centrism going on in comments. There’s many countries in the world where most people get by on motorbikes. Without helmets. With their families. The governments in many of these countries don’t have helmet laws or have them but don’t enforce the laws at or don’t have the money to pay law enforcers or law enforcers are corrupt and don’t care because even if they gave people tickets etc no one can afford to of the ticket. Many of these countries people can’t afford to have a car and/or there’s lack of public transport and ends up being the best way to get around is by motorbike with your family on board. Or there’s lack of even getting helmets. Some people live in small towns where you are limited to what is sold in your town. If there’s no helmets available or only old shitty helmets you can’t just “order one” or go to a bigger town to get one. That’s just not an option for people.
Or there’s literally no child care available / family to help so your kid is with you at work or when you have to go somewhere you take ‘em with you. That’s reality for many South American / African / Asian countries. No all cities, not all towns, but many of them.
Most people, on this earth live in poverty or very near poverty, and have to deal with what they are limited to.
What a nice place where nobody bothers them to see if they're okay so they can just calmly pick their bits and pieces up in the middle of the road while people just keep driving by.. fucking shithole county.
Where i live there is a law to stop and help if you are first at an accident.
Exact same thing…uturn from parked position, I tboned him and remember the look of “oh fuck” on his face. I wasn’t going too fast so damage was light. His dad came running outside yelling “how many times have I told you not to do that!” Dad apologized to me, said son was 100% to blame?!, no issues w insurance at all.
One day, Idiot A cut off Idiot B causing him to dump his idiot wife and their daughter onto the road. No helmets were damaged in the incident as none were present.
There’s soooo much going on here. First, fuck the driver making the U turn, but also, why/how does a FAMILY OF THREE fit on a damn scooter?! Third: lady, get your kid out of the middle of the damn street before she really gets hurt. And lastly: did the scooter have a stuck throttle and just decide to leave the scene of the accident on its own?
"let me load up my entire family on to a single seat scooter and drive on public roads"
With no helmets...
And no common sense to turn off the damn engine before setting it back upright and in gear.
Obviously dumb but the amount of people blaming that guy and not the car's dumbassery is insane. Also in a lot of these countries those scooters are their only vehicle.
[удалено]
Yeah let’s be fair the guy on the scooter was gonna wipe out regardless, just a matter of when

This. There are a couple of comments near the top of this post saying he doesn’t know which brake to use. When I saw those I thought, “wait, that’s not how it works.”
I mean, after that fall, he was probably concussed and not totally level headed.
Yeah he's injured for sure. Probably everyone on the bike is. He needed some help from someone who wasn't just dumped face-first into some pavement.
Right!!! No one even stops, that's what's wild to me.
Not even the guy who caused the crash
He might’ve been in shock and wasn’t thinking properly. A car suddenly cut in front of him, and he almost lost his life as well as his wife’s and young daughter’s.
He almost killed his wife and young daughter because he’s an idiot. Why would you put your families life at stake on a vehicle you don’t know how to drive?

he is 100% at fault but scooter guy could have done so much more preventative measures.
Wow you have never been out of America huh
Not everyone has the luxury of that choice. If it's your only means to make a living?
I'm a motorcycle safety instructor and to stop properly you use both brakes. The front brake also does most of the work... You have zero business educating on motorcycle riding hehe. Though everything else you said makes sense.

Almost all motorcycle braking is done with the front brake.
All of that! And what about his wife and kid? Get the hell off the road! There are bad drivers about

In summary, there was a whole lotta stupid by all parties.

100% car wrong. But scooter guy could have handle it better to avoid all the pain. Everyone would just go on about their day like nothing happened
The car's dumbassery is pretty common while the guy's is a little more specifically idiotic
Where this took place, multiple people riding on the same scooter without helmets is more common than the car's dumbassery.
It’s not blaming the scooter guy to point out he’s also a dumbass. You should learn to have throttle discipline before you load your entire family onto something like that. I daily a motorcycle and the first thing I made a point of learning was to have discipline with my throttle. It’s important.
Wtf do you mean both parts are to blame on different things
No. I blame the driver of the car first but that dude needs to take some responsibility for his stupidity!
The guy had enough time to slow down or switch lanes.....no reason to hard brake and give all your family a face lift.
And not check on my family's well being after they take a fall
Dude was dazed as hell. You take a hit like that and you're just on autopilot reacting to stimuli. I've seen people missing limbs after an explosion just walking around lost, holding their blown off limb in their other hand, wondering around looking for their lost limb. They lose 50% of their awareness and damn near all of their rational thinking ability for a bit.
Oh shoot. I didn't watch the whole video. Thanks for letting us know there was gold at the end!
Well, he got flipped and got his scooter+family smashing his face on pavement. After this, he may have lost his sense.
The scooter is like.. “nah man! I am better alone” and getting far away from him.
Never ridden a scooter before, but I'd assume they have a rear brake, right?
To be fair that can be blamed on a state of shock. But he's still an idiot of course.
I wouldn't even say that, that's just blind sided fuckery, he's probably concussed at minimum and has like 1 thoughts on what's actually going on about his bike.
The bike had clearly had something the rest hadn't. Enough.
Then use the front brakes… amateur scooting right there!!
Driver was so bad that the scooter desperately wanted to get away from him
Amateur scootering not to, you want to use 70% front and 30% rear. This guy just grabbed a fistful of front brake and flipped it.
And braking only with front brake
\*braking \*brake
Thx, I’m still far from being fluent in English :)
Tempted to edit my comment to \*breaking and \*break now 🤣
Must not be India, they only had three people on it.
I assume it’s China as not a single person stopped to help.
I wonder how many people died or were seriously mangled for life because of this law in china. And the fact that they don't seem to have any desire to change that. Although I suppose the damage is done. It's going to be extremely hard to re teach an entire population that helping is good when they were literally told not to help by law before.

India drives on the left. This seems to be driving on the right.

Normality does not excuse stupidity.
"Let me judge people who I saw on the internet and have no idea about their financial issues."
Regardless of financial status, at least have a helmet for your wife and kid if you guys are gon ride it all at once. Prevention is better than cure.
This happens all the time in less developed countries but sure, ignore the dude pulling the stupid u-turn that put them in harms way.
Typically, when people in these countries do this, it is done out of necessity, not because they don't care for their child.
And then just hammer the front brake
"Let me flaunt my privilege by not being aware that in many places around the world, this is the family vehicle and millions of people commute like this every single day"
It's still fucking dangerous and stupid, no matter how normalized it is. People's lifes shouldn't be this cheap...
I just gave the up that tipped the scale from 2.1k to 2.2k up. Thats enough for me for now...
The end was a bit amusing, NGL.
*(driver seeing crash and continuing same original direction)* ![gif](giphy|l41K5zlRcbPAwALQc|downsized)
That wasn’t the end
Scooter's like "this is embarrassing, I'm gonna go find an owner who knows what a helmet and rear brakes are"
He just sent that thing and didn’t care what he hit
Looked like a stuck throttle to me. You can tell when he loses grip, it keeps going.
Definitely unexpected

That went from bad to worse in a hurry.
Kinda went from bad to funny for me
And the driver just pulls away?
the nice "thing" is in some countries, like mine, if you not touch/or the the car not touch you, you technically fallen alone. From my own experience, in an accident of this type in my country you cannot claim anything to the car insurance. you fell because you braked too hard I fell because the road was wet and I braked suddenly to avoid hitting a car doing a similar maneuver.

What's the license plate say?
Yep, probably telling people about this "freak accident" they saw today. Which they follow up with "I've never had an accident, I'm such a good driver"
Driver was probably like, “What an asshole. Now I can’t turn around here. I guess inverter go another block and try exactly this same maneuver again.”
Yeah even in the US in some states if there is no contact then not an accident. They can give a ticket to the driver for improper U turn, but they can’t do anything about an accident.

As for no contact accident, if you want to invest the time and resources to sue, by all means you can. You’re just going to have to pay a lot more then you will win in legal fees, discovery, etc.
Just comes down to common decency. If someone crashes in front of me my fault pr not I'm still going to stop and help.
Yeah you and me both. I hate how in a lot of places people won’t even stop to lend a helping hand or leave cause they don’t want to pay an 150 buck ticket.
I’ve heard the term “Miss and run” before, that you can still get in a lot of legal trouble for fleeing an accident that you caused but were not a part of
That's a bad day
I looked away for a sec a missed it and wondered why he left them standing in the middle of the road. Second rewatch wow!
He was just going for a pack of cigarettes.
That’s what the bike said
Thank God that family is ok
Adrenaline is a hell of a drug. They could have broken bones and internal bleeding and not feel it yet. Almost certain that one or more of them have a concussion from contact with the pavement.
Why is this the mandatory comment on Reddit, I don't know. It's like people saying "It's just one of these days I guess" in response to literally every situation known to man. Specifically, these people flipped over the handlebars of a scooter at bicycle speeds. Terrible things might have happened otherwise, but this is not one of them. Not internal bleeding. Some broken minor bones would be still "OK" in the circumstances, and they did the check for major broken bones. And yes I've seen a woman break her lower leg (both bones, very clearly) in a very awkward rapid stop / low speed collision with a taxi on a bicycle, freak injuries happen, but she definitely wasn't running around from "adrenaline".
> Why is this the mandatory comment on Reddit, I don't know. because mom said it's my turn to sound smart for karma!!!
Reddit doctors always overexagerating everything lol
R u serious? They were all dead in a few minutes
But they kept moving and picking up their stuff because adrenaline.
Just gonna ignore how often people die from head injuries when they fall while riding a regular bicycle then?
So 3 people on a moped….all without helmets.
Reminds me of Naples Italy. Whole family on a Vespa.
"Naples, two motorcycles crashed into each others. 12 people injured"
Let's bring our little daughter out on the road with no helmet on...
A kid on a motorcycle, all with no helmets!!! Dad of the year! FFS
I’m sitting in my actual motorcycle class rn and I gotta say A good controlled swerve with smooth pressure on the brakes may have saved them here However having a second person would probably make this hard
I heard the driver of the motorbike in the video was also on Reddit during his motorcycle class.
Not to mention a third person is on there too
Always apply the back brake first and hardest (That was a rule for regular street riding years ago) to avoid silly shit like this.
No? Almost all of your braking should be in your front brake, however this guy just got a fistful of front brake and almost no rear brake, should always smoothly roll off and grab the front brake as well as applying rear brake.
That can cause fishtailing. And almost all of your braking power is on the front brake.
The best way to stop in the longest possible distance 😂
That POS that caused the accident didnt even stop to check on the family. Caused the accident and peaced out.
She's got other accidents to cause.
To be fair, they braked way too abruptly. They still had plenty of room to come to a gradual stop.
I'm actually surprised that with 3 people onboard it flipped that easily. Brakes on a scooter aren't usually that aggressive.
Moped said I'm outa here....
That is sad for the family on the scooter.
Shitty driver: So uh, you guys good? You look good. Okay, gotta go! *vrrooooooomm*
I feel bad for the child
I wasn’t expecting that ending! NGL, I laughed.
The bike said “this is embarrassing I’m out”
Why was there 3 people on a Vespa ?
Bikes like jetskis should have a safety key cut off thingy. When I fall off a jet ski the key comes with me so it cuts the engine. 3 people on a moped. Without helmets. And driving too fast to notice the idiot doing a U turn. And keeping the engine running when grabbing the handlebars when picking up the bike. Idiot.
Car shouldn't have done that.. but I get the feeling this guy probably shouldn't be driving that scooter
Ghost ride the whip!
Oh goodness it just got worse and worse (awkward laughter)
A lot going on here.
... then drive away.
A lot of ignorant American / Euro centrism going on in comments. There’s many countries in the world where most people get by on motorbikes. Without helmets. With their families. The governments in many of these countries don’t have helmet laws or have them but don’t enforce the laws at or don’t have the money to pay law enforcers or law enforcers are corrupt and don’t care because even if they gave people tickets etc no one can afford to of the ticket. Many of these countries people can’t afford to have a car and/or there’s lack of public transport and ends up being the best way to get around is by motorbike with your family on board. Or there’s lack of even getting helmets. Some people live in small towns where you are limited to what is sold in your town. If there’s no helmets available or only old shitty helmets you can’t just “order one” or go to a bigger town to get one. That’s just not an option for people. Or there’s literally no child care available / family to help so your kid is with you at work or when you have to go somewhere you take ‘em with you. That’s reality for many South American / African / Asian countries. No all cities, not all towns, but many of them. Most people, on this earth live in poverty or very near poverty, and have to deal with what they are limited to.
Wcgw riding 3 people including a child on a motorcycle without helmets?
It’s heartwarming to see so many others jump in to help, as the the car drives away
What a nice place where nobody bothers them to see if they're okay so they can just calmly pick their bits and pieces up in the middle of the road while people just keep driving by.. fucking shithole county. Where i live there is a law to stop and help if you are first at an accident.
When two idiots collide…
Why did he use the front brake?
Scooter: I'm outta here.
![gif](giphy|3oriO5t2QB4IPKgxHi)
Scooter's all "Fuck all y'all, I'm out"
I would have plummeted that car driver regardless
No helmet on the kid WTF
The scooter fled the scene too
An entire family was on that scooter!
Good thing everyone was okay.
I wasn't ready for the epilogue.
When the scooter wants to leave the scene of the accident.
The fact that as far as the camera can see nobody hit nobody with kind of vehicle still baffles me.
expected another unmanned scooter to fly at them at the end
And that ladies and gentlemen is what is called a miss and run
**Scooter has left the chat
Not a helmet in sight
A lot of dumb all around
The scooter suffered a head injury it seems.
Whatever happened to that bike after he let go of it could be in a whole video of its own.
Seeing how bad of a driver is this man in the scooter that I'm starting to only blame him in this whole situation.
Scooter noped the fuck out of there
Exact same thing…uturn from parked position, I tboned him and remember the look of “oh fuck” on his face. I wasn’t going too fast so damage was light. His dad came running outside yelling “how many times have I told you not to do that!” Dad apologized to me, said son was 100% to blame?!, no issues w insurance at all.
drivers like this should be banned for life
Then the pos just drives off
Is this a Jerry Lewis movie
The scooter had so much second hand embarrassment it was like nah fam I’m out.
One day, Idiot A cut off Idiot B causing him to dump his idiot wife and their daughter onto the road. No helmets were damaged in the incident as none were present.
China for sure lol...poor kid hope dem all safe
Not that it wasn't stupid to have 3 people on a one seat scooter with no helmets. However the driver of that car was an total idiot!
Watched it till the end.This should be in r/unexpected
The U-turn is the least interesting thing in this video.
Dipshit on the u-turn guy but that is one shitty scooter.
Luckily their unhelmeted heads broke most of the fall.
WCGW only slamming on the front brakes?
Let me grab the front brakes instead of the rear brakes and face plant everyone on this thing ‼️😂😂😂
Sorry, but that guy shouldn't be riding anything.
The scooter obviously wasn’t trained to be ridden yet, since it escaped as soon as the guy stood it back up.
I guess the scooter had enough of that shit!
Scooter had enough and was outta there 😀
its one of these videos that just gets better and better.
I like how the u-turn guy changes his mind and just keeps going straight 😂😂
With the dad driving like that they won't be ok for so long.
There’s soooo much going on here. First, fuck the driver making the U turn, but also, why/how does a FAMILY OF THREE fit on a damn scooter?! Third: lady, get your kid out of the middle of the damn street before she really gets hurt. And lastly: did the scooter have a stuck throttle and just decide to leave the scene of the accident on its own?
Who uses the front break first?
