    The guy was lucky to not hit the truck that passed right after his flight.

    Hypothetically, would the traction control system on the 8th gen help at all when encountering a slippery centerline? When encountering the slippery centerline, would it matter if you were off the throttle, steady throttle, or on the throttle accelerating out through the end of the curve? What about the ABS? I know in theory you're supposed to do your braking and set your speed before entering the curve (at least that's what they told me at my MSF class), but what if you're trail braking?

    I try to avoid center lines obviously but I sometimes encounter painted crosswalk lines on somewhat speedy curves and I've always been a bit paranoid about hitting them so I try to take a line that takes me between them but sometimes I hit them and cringe so that's really why I'm asking.

    I heard that Great Leader just issued a new Executive Order to address this very problem - it offers illegal aliens amnesty in exchange for them painting all our yellow centerlines with a special non-slip black stealth paint sold to the US military by China :glee:

    Thanks for posting this video. I saw this on the national news, but they played just a few seconds.

    That's f...ing wild. Incredibly lucky man.

    I agree, ACH near La Canada/Flintridge, at lower altitude. He was going downhill and just lost it.

    In the video, I didn't see the driver of the truck stop and look for the rider who had just crossed their path.
