Here is a video of a guy in Russia doing a 25 mile commute to work on a Sport Motorcycle. I will let the video speak for itself.
All I can say is that riding in traffic like this is suicidal. I hope this guy realizes it before it is too late for him. All it takes is for one cager to make one sudden move and it will be all over for him.

Happy new year Norm!
Yes, it seems a part of the brain that controls self-preservation is missing with this rider. Or, he’s just plain stupid or wants to purposely end it all.
Happy new year to you too Gary.
The guy in the video day’s are probably numbered unless he stops riding like that. It is only a matter of time.

This really is utter madness – still – I doubt it would be the biker who’d be making an accident claim if this went wrong!
Cringe! He is not long for this world. I do believe he should revisit fundamental physics equations, particularly Newton’s second law pertaining to the definition of force in terms of momentum, change rate, and reference (e.g., bump something and the equation will not be resolved in his favor).
Well Geek_Law I could not have said it better myself. It is sheer insanity; almost suicidal.

Before two minutes had elapsed, I had counted ten things I would never do. Unfortunately, too many people have the idea that all younger motorcycle riders do ride like that.
All I can say is Oh my gosh, what is he thinking? I agree in your post that it is obviously suicidal. I am hoping that someone could tell him that it is very dangerous and made him realized before it is too late.
