The terrifying moment occurred when the rider sped through traffic and collided with an SUV that tried to abruptly switch lanes.I wonder if the person that wrote the comments for the article looked at the video, or if it was AI generated? The bike crashed in to the back of the car that was already in the lane he was travelling in. The SUV that went to change lanes, went back to it's lane after moving it's wheels just over the line. Oh, and speaking as a motorcyclist- that rider was an utter knob head and very lucky to be alive after that bit of high-speed stupidity. Grant Darwin NT |

I think it's more USER ERROR and not paying attention to the signs/road Sat-nav companies make changes after fatal crash Google and Apple have agreed to amend their audio prompts after a double fatal crash appeared to have been caused by incorrect directions from a sat-nav. |

Ah yes, the infamous turn right - turn left - turn right - turn left that I get coming out of the car park as it can't quite figure out I'm not on a street yet. |

Ah yes, the infamous turn right - turn left - turn right - turn left that I get coming out of the car park as it can't quite figure out I'm not on a street yet.Hah... the first time I tried 'coming out' of the airport's car park with a rented car in Australia I had to stop after completing my first round circling the car park without finding an open gate to exit this place for the city. Okay, what did I wrong? It's an ordinary car park like everywhere else... Left hand driving.... You won't be able to find the exit until you start to think "left hand driving". Supposedly, that's why the infamous 'turn left, turn right' at the car park is necessary.... for stupid tourists like me. |

Okay, what did I wrong? It's an ordinary car park like everywhere else... Nay, it says proceed to XYZ st and turn left, turn right ... I'm thinking that it really has bad logic or can't figure out front from back. I doubt the "fastest route' is changing that often ,,, Shockingly the walking but not driving mode of the app shows the single lane of the car park behind my work building. Of course going there while pulling into the park it is screaming at me to do a U-turn go around the block ... it wants me on the street side of the building. But when picking a restaurant I frequent as a destination it actually directs me to the car park behind it. |

Autopilot strikes again, but at sea this time. A New Zealand Navy inquiry has found that a $133m naval ship sank off the coast of Samoa because of human error. A New Zealand Navy ship sank off Samoa because the crew did not realise its autopilot was still turned on before it ran aground, a Court of Inquiry has found. |

Oops. Reminds me of something my grandfather said. If you engage something. You better know what it does and to use it. He told a story about a person who didn’t know what all cruise control did in his van. He engaged cruise control and got thirsty. So not knowing he got up and went to get a drink out of the cooler in back of his the van. Luckily for him he only ended up in a ditch. |

It's lucky that he had a built in helmet as he certainly can't drive. LOL The NFL has been left stunned as viral video captured the scary moment Jason Kelce’s car went flying off the rails. Jason Kelce caused a scene while driving in a golf cart that was shaped like an Eagles helmet on Broad Street in Philadelphia, as seen in a number of viral videos on social media. He can't fly like an eagle either, but I wonder what the copper there thought about it. Cheers. |

Someone didn’t sort the hazardous waste properly. I have personally only seen one garbage truck belching smoke. But not to this extreme. |

About once a year there is a burning garbage truck in the news in the Fort Worth metro area, usually in the summer months. One this past summer because someone disposed of Lithium Ion batteries. They don't like getting squished. |
