No wonder they got in a wreck. Everyone's on the wrong side of the road!

cheeky sod, not exactly the type of reaction the film was intended to invoke.

I wish the short film worked, only yesterday a biker in my home town of Liverpool was killed in a similar way, I go nowhere without my lights on main beam, and the dozy cnuts still pull out on me.

Nice ad, be nice if it was reproduced worldwide. A series of them relating to intersections, lane changes, stopping and tailgating would be great.

Excellent public safety announcement, now if they would only play that as much as they play M.A.D.D. it just might help. Motorcycles dont kill people the igronance of the public dose. :cry:

Actually not true the top five reasons for motorcycle deaths...

Five crash types account for 85% of fatal motorcycle crashes:
1) motorcycle runs-off-road 41%,
2) motorcycle or other vehicle runs traffic control 18%,
3) head-on collision 11%,
4) car turns in front of cycle 8%
5) motorcycle goes down in roadway 7%.

By my math that means even if #2 and #3 are 100% an autombiles fault (which in all likelyhood it is 50/50) it is still 48% motorcyclist and 37% auto...

Also don't remember were I read it but a motorcyclist is 26 times as likely to die as someone driving a car!

So be safe!!!!
