There have been unfortunate incidences of GoPro car crash footage, but this particular point-of-view video is much more shocking. It captures the last moments of David Holmes, a 38-year-old motorcyclist who was reportedly speeding at 97 miles per hour when the accident occurred. Released by his mother, Brenda Holmes, who wanted people to learn a valuable lesson from his death, the GoPro car crash footage will leave a significant impact when it comes to road safety.
She says, "I want to be involved in this campaign because I feel something positive can come out of his loss. If we can prevent one accident; one family going through what we have been through then David would not have died in vain."
