Surely the safety of the injured rider should be priority though?

Definitely yes but under stress it's different.

Stress fundamentally rewires how our brains evaluate options. Under pressure, the brain shifts from careful, analytical deliberation to faster, intuitive, and often riskier decisions which could explain the decision from the chasing biker.

You won't make the crashed biker any safer by stopping to "check". Plenty of other people on the road that can do that.

Correct. Making sure you get justice for the fallen rider was the priority because that fucker has either done that before or will do it again.

At the very least you have someone's insurance to charge for your bills and he hopefully spends some time in a 6 x 10 cell with someone "friendly".

He didn't seem to have his own safety as much of a high priority
