This is a murder/attempted murder case, and should be updated to reflect that as the video may not be clear to all.

I think he was backing up to the scene but had no idea one of his victims was lying in the road. Luckily the victim was conscious enough to get out of the way - just.

A terrible waste of a young life, with another with possibility life altering injuries.

Looks like no accident, more like murder as mentioned above, he wasn't going slow that's for sure

Maybe, just maybe, the bike just pulled out of a side road without looking or stopping. I see it every day here. They just pull out because traffic is slow enough to make this a viable method of merging with traffic on a larger road.

When you combine that ingrained driving habit with a dark road, and a driver going way too fast, you have all the ingredients for a fatal accident.

I can't see anything in the video which says murder. Idiocy? Yes. Recklessness? Yes. Intention to kill? No.
