If cameras could only show what the rider was doing wrong, [almost] nobody would have a camera on their bike (and I would have them front, back, both sides, from under and one following me on a drone). The third use of a camera is to show what everyone else is doing wrong. A quick search on YouTube will show that most people use cameras this way, and there's a term for someone who assumes that everyone else is doing it all wrong...

The funny thing is there's endless video showing people putting themselves in bad situations - they never notice that part...
