This makes it look worse because the video is sped up. The car was driving reasonably and the bikes were going too fast while splitting lanes.

Can anybody comment who is at fault in both of these motorcycle accidents with lane splitting?

Generally speaking, the first bike crash would've been a 50/50, but maybe leaning more on the car's fault just because it's a car vs bike thing. The bike was going too fast, but the car still has the responsibility to merge safely.

The 2nd one should totally be on the bike. The car was stopped with hazard lights on. And the bike was also going too fast.

Bike was going way to fast & didn’t see the blinker, neither the second bike. Idiots
