Many thought the car driver was at fault.
One wrote: "Car at fault. Intervening with main road from a side road. Hope the biker is ok and nothing too serious."
"The biker is 100 per cent not at fault," said another.
But some others believed that the motorcyclist should have been travelling slower.
A viewer wrote: "Bet the biker wishes he was doing the speed limit 20, he would have easily stopped."
While some believed that both motorists should share the blame.
Another said: "Biker was going way too fast, but car should have seen him coming. Both at fault."
"That bike was not doing 20mph. But that car should not have pulled out when he's that close," agreed a second.
The Metropolitan Police and London Ambulance Service have been contacted for comment.
