Such an old repost. She is on an R1. The guy supposedly told the police that she ran into him, luckily she had that video to prove the guy was an asshat.

Severe Repost, but there's a story behind that video. If you're interested in the story, go to http://www.smoothcurvesracing.com and browse her Home and forums. The info about the crash is under all the BS she puts on her main page. Her name is Dawn (screen Name Vyshtia) and is a track day instructor at a local track.

She could've saved it and ducked behind the accord on the right, split lane...accident avoided...
She wasn't going THAT fast and she didn't even brake enough too make the rear come up.
She probably freaked when she saw the car come spinning around, "Oh sh*t".
She kept looking at the car instead of an exit to maneuver away.
Where's that thread for street techniques....
But still, very lucky she just took a hood ride and not get sandwiched between the bike+2 cars.

looked like she had tried to go between the cars and just didn't pull it off, you are right, looks like she wasn't really braking. but I like how the other driver tried to pin it on her.

That's what i thought too, not enough brakes. Personally, i would have gone left, and not right. you could clearly see that there was nothing in front of the car that spun out, so it's a safe area. when a car locks like that, it's generally not going to change so it's easy to predict where it's going to end up. going right could have been an option as well. if she was worried about the traffic behind her, they could have (and easily DID) avoided the accident AND HER. that hummer that was behind her, stopped in good time.
but there are a hundred ways to pick apart an accident, isn't there.
