Assumptions: Driver afraid of off-roading := proper training says to keep the wheel straight and gradually move the vehicle safely onto the roadway keeping one's eyes directed to where they want to go.

2nd fail: Motorcycle...wtf? GTFO of the way. Why does he have to be so close to get the "best shot?"

wrong. if you view the video closely, you can see the driver swerve to his right to avoid a tree on his left that was very close to the roadway. not that this is any justification for taking out the cyclists, but it wasn't for NO REASON.
