Looks like an amateur to me. It does not appear that they are going
all that fast. Lots of money to ruin.

Oh, and this video made me think along the same lines. People get too proud of their 4wd cars and get complacent - and that's where the trouble begins.... ;)

under braking the back end of the sti gets veeery light, you cannot touch the brakes at all once you're anywhere near the apex of a turn, and in a long rolling turn, don't even think about it

in no way was that the bikes fault, he was on the right side, the wrx was getting close in the other side of the road got scared then hit the brakes (wrong thing to do with that car on any dirt in the road, ) the guy if not a newbe just had a lapse of skill, driver error all the way,

Yea. It could have been worse though. He could have tagged the motorcyclist. In which case the driver would go to prison (murder). Not real big into legalese so I leave it with the simple words. Yea the bike was still in his lane, even if it isn't as big as a car he still gets the same lane space. It's a shame cause that looked like a nice Subaru too.
