It's called "flying the car". He can always leave to his right and set the car down. It's not a big deal, really.
An empty sidecar can tip you going around a turn. Even more if someones in it and doesnt lean towards the outside. Id call that a big deal.
As long as the person sitting in the sidecar is consistent about leaning toward the center the pilot can account for it. Its perhaps not the "correct" behavior from the passenger but its not surprising and seems to be the pretty common natural reaction from my experience. Not everyone is a trained monkey. ;)
I've driven sidecar rigs. Not a fan of that at all. I'll stick with regular two-wheeled motorcycles, thanks.
Had one on a knucklehead once, it was fun except when it would go into a high speed wobble. Slowing down only made it worse, you had to goose it until it settled out and it seemed to always happen at most in opportune times.
Sounds fun but very scary.
Would love to ride one of those knuckleheads.
