In a previous video, Shumi asked "Can you drive?" in the context of crash safety and the discussion that followed has been a bit strange. On Spark, Shumi explains how safety works from you, outwards. There's a lot you can do before you rely on the equipment's passive safety.
It would be great if you could do an episode on exercises one can perform in safe spaces with a car and bike to improve response and skill. For example i used to do hundreds of figure 8s with a new bike in the early morning in parking lots doing them slow and fast. Dropped the bike countless times on the grass but made me very comfortable with it for the roads. Im sure Karthik and Shumi have subconsciously developed dozens of such steps to improve braking, steering and dodging sudden obstacles.
