I don't know...they looked faster to me. The blue car is running red light after red light and the scooter is like at an angle...headed toward the car. As we all know, an impact is MPH + MPH in a head on collision, which is what that appears to me. So, even if the car was doing 30 and scooter doing 15, it would be like that scooter hit a jersey wall at 45mph. Can ya say helicopter helicopter helicopter.

Hell, even if it was only a 30mph collision...still gonna look like a limp noodle coming of that thing.

Here's what I see. The little biker looked like that impact would of broke his neck and I was sure it was a phony until I saw his arms moving and the reaction of the other motorists.
The motorist flying thru the reds should have been dragged out and beaten severly. Instead he's on the phone trying to help but was pulling on the guys arms.....don't touch the guy, damn it!
Having been iin a very similar accident (me on a bike Vs. Buick) , I cringe at scenes like this but I vote real.

I used to have a fiesta/festiva, whatever........it was a good commuter car, lol.
