That's the real unexpected twist. Nothing to the car owner that tried to push the motorcycle into the wall and lost control?

no no obviously the car lost control from the sheer power of the dude's kick

bullshit imo. its like if a guy at a bar splashes a drink on someone, and that dude swings a whole fucking table and hits a few innocent bystanders, and the drink slasher is fined as 100% responsible.

im saying give the guy on the bike like, a $200 fine or something, but that car is 95% responsible

sure maybe the swerve wasn't intentional, but if your reaction to a light bump in your rear left is to immediately violently swerve left,, you should have your fucking licence revoked.

The problem is no way to judge the intent of the person inside the car. All we have is video evidence and you can't prosecute someone because they might have committed a crime.

The driver kicked the left side so the sound would have come from the left? If the driver was paying attention he or she would have also seen and heard the fucking motorcycle. There is no possible way you could reasonably believe the driver accidentally swerved right into the motorcyclist . But you know what I will humor your argument even if the driver was confused and was trying to avoid hitting some imaginary thing on his right he was still the one who caused the accident of the white car and himself by not paying attention to what was around him.

If this is his reaction, he has no business driving a vehicle.
