Idiot Biker Eats Ravine Trying to Pass Van

This biker attempts to overtake a van in a curb, ends up down ravine. Funny to hear reactions inside the van. "Let's get out of here, they're going to kick our asses...."

This is why you don't pass over a double-yellow line. The road is too dangerous for such a maneuver. Had there been oncoming traffic, the result would have probably been a hell of a lot worse.

People try this shit every day. Not all live to tell about it.

As someone who has ridden motorcycles since the age of 10, these guys in the van are assholes.

1) They were ruining the corners for those guys on bikes. Okay, the motorcyclists still shouldn't have passed on a double yellow, but in many states, it's against the law to "hold up" 5 or more vehicles (i.e. if you're a pokey driver, or even going the speed limit but there is a line of five or more vehicles behind you, you are required by law to pull over and let them pass). So likely they were both in the wrong.

2) Those guys in the van, by not stopping, may have just cost that guy his life. It's obviously a remote area, and there wasn't much traffic either way. Suppose the biker broke a leg - not a far-fetched assumption, considering he just tumbled down into a ravine with his bike. How is he going to get to the hospital? The only people who witnessed the accident who have the capability to take the guy anywhere are cowards and just drove off.

3) "They're going to beat our asses?" WTF?! If that's their first reaction, they were obviously doing something wrong, purposely irritating, or illegal. No one's going to "beat your ass" to stop and offer help at the scene of an accident. Jackasses. And to cite "nowhere to pull over" as your excuse? Most of the motorcycles parked off the road - conveniently, they found space to pull over and risk dropping their $20K+ bikes to save their friend. You couldn't pull over in your piece of shit van?

Please take this out of the comedy channel. Maybe the biker was being dumb, but there's nothing funny about a motorcycle crash. If it was a car with a young family that went over the side, it wouldn't have been considered comedy. Neither is this.

I grew up RIGHT THERE! I lived like 15 minutes away from this very spot for 11 years. This is Hecker Pass in California right outside of Gilroy. My brother had a bike when we lived there and jerks like that were always ruining the pleasure of that pass for bikers. BTW, motorcycles can share the lane with cars in California, so the bikers could have passed legally without the van even having to pull over if the people in the van had any consideration. Super lame video.
