Maybe the biker and driver of the car knew each other and were trying to do something else and it went wrong?  
Why have a dash cam recording randomly?

We’ve talked about this before. It’s a combination of insurance scams, police corruption and just generally terrible drivers.

I think my favorite was the guy in the crosswalk who walked up to the stopped car and basically threw himself on the hood pretending he was hit. The driver got out, pointed at the dash cam, and the guy made a miracle recovery and ran away.

Wired did a whole article about it:

> **[Why Almost Everyone in Russia Has a Dash Cam](https://www.wired.com/2013/02/russian-dash-cams/)**
>
> How is it possible that a dozen different motorists around the Russian city of Chelyabinsk were able to capture video of a massive meteor flying through the sky? Because almost everyone in Russia has a dash-mounted video camera in their car.

I’ll second bracket on that… or something wierd happened a while back like the car cutting off the bike or something.

Brake checking something on two wheels is STUPID, though.
