Motorcyclist rear-ends a Renault Fluence and does an Olympic-worthy, perfect 10 flip

This motorcyclist shows us why it’s important to always keep your eyes on the road!

In this video, a seemingly distracted motorcyclist follows closely behind a white Renault Fluence as the pair navigates through roads filled with busy roadworks.

Throughout the entire video, the motorcyclist could be seen tilting his head up and down multiple times.

Upon approaching an underground tunnel entrance, the white PHV slows down to join the long queue of vehicles waiting to enter.

However, the distracted rider fails to anticipate this sudden change and ends up rear-ending the Renault.

The impact force forces the motorcycle to flip forward, throwing the rider down onto the road face-first.

With his feet against the car, the rider manages to lift his motorcycle off of himself.

He walks to the side of the road and removes his helmet, revealing broken pieces inside.

Concerned, the driver of the white Renault and the cam car alight from their cars to check on the rider’s condition.

While we may never know for sure if the rider was looking at his phone, the number of times he kept looking down was suspicious.

He can represent SG at the next Olympic games. #motorcyclistforparis2024

Indeed! Kudos to both drivers for immediately checking on the motorcyclist! Hope he is alright!

It is already not easy to look at the screen and drive in a car. How can motorcyclists be able to do it under the sun and ride safely?😬

This exit is a hazard because of the bend. Your line of sight of the traffic is obstructed by the bend. That's why the "SLOW" painted on the road telling road users to slow down. If there are cars stopped after the bend you cannot see it. With road works/tree pruning it is even more precarious.

  • A sole-ful tribute

    Car enthusiasts are an emotional bunch. So, I naturally develop feelings for things on wheels, be it four wheels or two. However, I was surprised to discover that I had become attached to my old pair of sneakers, whose soles are so worn that it hurts to wear them.  That is the unequivocal signal to retire them. But I must say "Thank you" before bidding them goodbye. The laceless design is convenient, saving time when you need to rush off in the morning Through thick and

    ERP 2.0: Possible positions for your processing unit

    Your OBU's processing unit isn't always mounted on the passenger footwell. Depending on the car that you drive, more than one option may be available! Since November 2023, the Land Transport Authority (LTA) has been gradually replacing in-vehicle units (IUs) with the new on-board units (OBU). The OBU will pave the way for smoother traffic as we transition to the new ERP 2.0 system that is based on Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) technology.  The OBU comprises three parts: An

    Hard Enduro: The ultimate motorsport?

    I enjoy motorsports of all kinds - four wheels good, two wheels better. And while watching them on TV (okay let's be honest Youtube, who even watches TV nowadays) is fun, getting to partake in anything even remotely resembling it, even in a highly truncated, totally superficial manner, is even more exciting.  Earlier this year, I did a short 2.5 day off-road riding 'tour', and it was easily the hardest, most physically demanding 2.5 days I've ever spent on a motorbike. It really gives you a

    Japan is weird. I love it (Part 4)

    I recently finished watching Shōgun (yes, I'm a little bit late to the party). Released earlier this year, Shōgun has become an utter revelation - going on to win 18 Emmys at this year's Primetime and Creative Arts Emmys, making it the most awarded single season of television in history. It's also the first non-English-language series to win Outstanding Drama Series.  And it truly is outstanding, fully deserving of all the awards that it has garnered.  As you would expect, the show rev
