In my state, you have to complete a 3 day class (classroom & riding) to get your endorsement.

One of the things that is constantly drilled into you is how to corner.

I can tell you 100% that the cyclist in the vid had no idea what he was doing.

Like Campag said, if you're too hot, you stay low side - up until the point where you lay the bike down because that is preferable to riding it out & crashing.

But the vid rider wasn't even that hot... he could have leaned in and counter-steered his way inside the cyclists.

Instead, he panicked, sat up, then hit his brake which forced him to the outside and straight into them. Stupid a$$hat.
