The answer is YES.......its real....I watched it several times. You are a computer guy.....tell me what would it take for a bike mounted sensor to know if the driver of a car a block away was looking the right direction or not...........I believe that will clarrify quite enough It was rather well done wasnt it...........  |

Like I said.....many times, it was well done............that thing sure doesnt work though because it didnt even see that huge white van  that gave the rider the squish at the end........ |

It was an obvious, though well done spoof. German was my native language, and I still understand it well. Understanding the lingo made the claims for the "accident avoidance system" even more outlandish. If you play around a lot with the pause function of the video, you can actually see a frame where the total bike, with rider is superimposed on top of the front of the truck just before the "claimed" impact. Entertaining anyways. I hope that our hobby never gets that advanced. I'll keep watching out for myself, Thank you!!  |

I noticed right away the rider didn't look to his right when entering the road. I'm hoping that video is a spoof of some kind.
