Harley vs. Fiat Crash: Who Survives It Better?
GOING VIRAL: End Result of a Gnarly Collision Between a Harley-Davidson Motorcycle and a Fiat Will Surprise You
Motorcycle riders are at a huge disadvantage when it comes to surviving wrecks. Not only are we exposed to the elements, but we don’t enjoy modern safety features like airbags, seat belts, or, you know…a metal body around us. In the case of a crash with a car, motorcycle riders are unfortunately at a loss.
But, what if? What if a Harley-Davidson motorcycle was so well built, that it could cause damage, instead of being damaged? I know what you’re thinking, it sounds crazy, but what if? To prove that something similar could actually happen, we bring you this video by Pirata Funny. Although the video narration is in Spanish, one doesn’t need to understand the language to decipher what’s going on.
The footage shows a small silver Fiat Uno fully stopped on the right lane, and getting ready to make what looks like an illegal U-turn. As a result, the driver most likely watches out for cars before making the turn, but not a Harley. Immediately after the Fiat performs the U-turn, the black Harley-Davidson motorcycle t-bones the Fiat at full speed.
Clearly the Fiat driver is at fault for the gruesome crash. But it’s the Harley rider that most likely paid the bigger price. (Although there’s no official word on his condition.) Furthermore, the Fiat was flipped on its side, while the Harley-Davidson simply falls down, and the rider crashed into the car. What’s even more shocking, is the physical aftermath of the vehicles post-crash.
The video proceeds to show the damage done to the Fiat and the motorcycle, and the Fiat seems to have suffered greater damage than the Harley! Ultimately, I will refrain from assuming the outcome of this crash due to not knowing the rider’s condition.
There you have it folks, Harley-Davidson bikes are well built. But, always ride defensively!
