ow, ow, ow. I hate that feeling of knowing The Badness is going to happen.  You have just enough time to say "NOOOOOOOOO" with maybe an extra moment to think "this shit is gonna hurt"

White line marking two-way traffic says it's definitely not in the US. I didn't detect an Oz accent in any of the "dialogue" though.  ;D

Having played Rugby, one got to hear excited Aussies swearing from time to time - seems right to me. But it isn't clear for sure. Our options look to be UK, Oz or NZ. English is the first lang, forresty and drive on the left

How very American of me, thinking that he was on the wrong side of the road.

I'll make a deal with you we will learn the metric system if you start driving on the right side of the road.
He man, where are all the ads?

Regardless of which side of the street it was the guy that hit me better hope I am hurt enough to not get up.  Few things piss me off more than having my life put in danger by an idiot.
Two things I don't do.  Keyboard bullies and hypocrites.

The slow mo really shows bad guy succumbing to target fixation. [bang]
You can almost hear his thoughts of Ooooo make the beast with two backs im going to hit him and giving up.
He could of counter steered and thrown his weight more off the bike into the lean and not hit go-pro guy.

Australian yes. Looks like Mount Nebo near Brisbane, Queensland. A few of the corners up there have recommended speed signs that are totally wrong and can catch unsuspecting riders out. Dude was lucky in a way it was another bike he hit and not a car.

Not a scooter, but why would that matter?

guess it really doesnt matter, but I've always avoided scooters like the plague, assuming they have no idea what so ever what they're doing...

i dunno, just always see them rippin around on them in flip flops and shorts and stuff like that like they have no idea they can fall over.

maybe it's just a generalization. someone made a similar observation about it being a 250cc though
