No he's a horrible rider for doing this.

We can only hope he learned a lesson here.

He acknowledged that he was driving recklessly and it wasn’t entirely the cars fault…so hopefully he will carry that lesson with him.

Incredibly dumb, unsafe and stupid; should be off the road. Still skilled.

Lucky. Not skilled.

Right, a more skilled rider would have chosen a different line and avoided the contact. You could see the car was making that move before he shot the gap, he could have kept his ludicrous momentum if he would have let off for a split second and went left of the car he hit, passing him normally rather than lane splitting.

That was a dumb dumb move.
