Begs several questions, the main one being:
Who the **** hangs around with a camera phone to capture such a "random" event.
I was there when the Zeppelin blew up !

OK, I'll accept that - but ask how do you know ? Looks like a remote spot ?
Next question - Presumably the CCTV camera is there for a reason - a well known accident spot ? History of "reckless driving" location.
Clearly the biker seems oblivious of those facts. So does the heavy construction vehicle driver (digger guy).
Insufficient warnings - speed limit, cautions etc etc).
It just seems more could be done to avoid such ****.
No doubting the biker was lucky.
Any idea where it happened - can't be many places as the two drivers seem to be driving on the left.
Some road signs make no logical sense to me. Coming in to Hull, at Smith and Nephew flyover, there's a sign saying 'maximum speed 30mph' that is just in front of a 40mph repeater sign, and next to the 40mph markers on the floor. There are also a number of places that have a 'slippery surface' warning in places that have been resurfaced several times. Surely the sensible thing would be to make it less slippery rather than to keep sticking a sign up?
Now theres a thought.... a stencil of dumb **** Allam..... sprayed on road surfaces around the area East west and North...

It's just sloppy. Other illogical ones are the 'slow' and 'slow down' instructions, when they don't know what speed I'm travelling at anyway, and there isn't a corresponding 'giddy up' after it, so by the normal rules, you should keep travelling slowly as you've not been instructed otherwise. If the assumption is you need to be told to slow down, it can't be assumed that you'd know when to speed up again.
Another thing on the logic of instructions...
Currently, in Manchester, you can be sacked for refusing to sit in an office with someone, fined £100 for sitting with them at home, and get a discount voucher to eat with them in a busy restaurant

I went to Wessie land yesterday (sorry) chatting to the chap at the business we were visiting, he explained the area he lived in was now on lockdown, though he could go to work, though not see his dad at his home, but could meet his dad at a pub...
We had similar, It's changed now, but at one point according to the 'rules' I could give a relative a lift in my car or go with them on the bus to hospital for their appointment, but not sit in the house and care for them. Luckily, I'm selective in my application of rules.
I know there has to be order, but the blind obedience some people have to ink on paper or paint on the floor amazes me. Silly sods wandering up and down those mazes they put out to control queues, when they're the only ones there and could just walk in the door like normal, and others that say 'It's terrible, I can't see my granny, it says so in the paper'...erm, **** off.
Seriously, I'm amazed some ambulance chaser hasn't latched on to it, as the highways bods are effectively admitting the surface is sub-standard, and the length the sign has been up would be proof they've known about for years and done nothing. In fact, as they've resurfaced the road, they're effectively saying they made it slippery. That has to have put degree of liability onto them as a contributing factor. If there hasn't been a crash, then the sign should be removed.
