    Normally don't like to post motorcycle crash Vid's but consider this more an instructional video on riders concentration or rather lack thereof and the rider with a lesson hard learnt.

    Brain fade? That's just sheer poor riding by everyone in the vid.

    I imagine that is a common problem for people from a left-hand drive country visiting a right-hand drive country, or vice versa.

    Looking at the Vid again think you bang on, the motorcycle plates look English, the road European and the little car an old Fiat..

    Correct in all departments. The Alps obviously are down in Switzerland as the video clearly says that. I have to concentrate extra hard while i'm driving around up here in Sweden having moved up from the UK, seeing as the traffic is on the other side of the road to what i'm used to. Sadly this is a common mistake british bikers make while travelling abroad.

    As to the earlier comment about the riding itself being really bad, you show me riders riding correctly and i'll show you 99% who don't. I don't know many that do and i was an instructor.
