User NotMeDrivin has uploaded a video (below) of a driver demonstrating one of the dumbest things you can do on a mountain road. The foolish individual behind the wheel has taken it upon himself to pass the skateboarders in a blind left-hand turn, in what appears to be an attempt to get a better view, while nearly killing a motorcyclist in the process. You don’t need to be a rocket surgeon to know that you should be staying in your lane at all times on winding mountain roads.

And here we have the motorcyclist’s perspective, with the license plate and all:
Please be aware, friends, that this fellow isn’t the only person in the world to ever have done this, and he certainly won’t be the last. To everyone navigating radical terrain, be it hilly, winding or other: Remain alert and be aware of your surroundings. (It would also be wise to be as coordinated on your board/bike as the rider seen here. He pulls a pretty impressive move right in the nick-of-time to get himself in to safety.) And tell your driver friend to not be an idiot.
Thanks for the tip, Thomas Iturraran!
