Looks to me like the trailer be on the wrong side of the line, hope it was the bike that clipped the side marker light and not someone's head.

800 pounders may not handle so well, but a 300 pound bike would have been completely under the wheels in the same situation. That monster bike may be the only thing that saved the driver (if in fact it did.)

A 300 lb. bike could have stopped or avoided, as where that boat takes miles to turn or stop

If that's near the apex of a tight turn, I'd normally be very near the white line no matter what I'm riding, and it looks like the trailer would have missed me. Not that I wouldn't have had some sphincter clenching going on.

It looks more like they're looking at something, as opposed to looking for something.
