Footage has emerged online which shows the moment two motorcyclists were forced to swerve out of the path of an oncoming car, which was driving straight towards them on the wrong side of the road.

Geoff Deubis was bombing along a B-road on his Tracer 900, when he and his pal Eddie nearly collided with a Land Rover Discovery which flew at them on the wrong side of the road. Thankfully the chaps were in a good position, tight to the white lines, which meant they saw the car early enough to get out of its way and swerve onto the wrong side of the road.

It highlights just how important good road positioning is when you’re out on two wheels – and how you’ve really got to have your wits about you to stay safe. God know what the Land Rover driver’s up to though.
