The car and me is turning right, suddenly she turn left after a right turn and there is not much time i can stop cuz of nervous when i see the car's head eating my straight road so if i go straight, i will bang on her left side of the car. so i decide to trottle more to sneak through the space between the curb and the car. unfortunately the car still hit my right back of my bike and banged my gf's right foot. i just heard a bang sound but i didnt fall nor my gf. at tat moment i tot lucky never fall. so i tot nothing happen so i go straight . about 1sec later my gf is crying and screaming at her foot very pain. so i stop infront to see what happen. then i run back to chase the car but cant find the car. after 3min like tat the driver come back and ask is she ok. so ask me how to settle . i just say i wan her foot to be ok. but at tat moment she cant even walk. too pain. so i called 995 to send her to tantockseng hospital. and btw the lady driver's father keep claim tat im on high speed like 50km/h and say im in fault . so i wan to ask m i really at fault? im just right turning at gear 1 going to 2. will my speed be 50km/h? she suddenly turn left and gave a late signal . she signal and turn tgt. how can i react in time? i have to sneak through the small hole. luckily i didnt bang on the curb or else i will injuried too .

why lady driver so idiotic :sian: signal and turn tgt without checking blindspot:(

judging from what i saw in your photo, it seems that you are in the wrong to turn right together with the car as i suppose you are in the 'outer' lane.

but it is the car's fault to not to check back and clear, thus causing danger to you. but you should have slowed down and horn to warn your presence instead of overtaking the car in such a narrow path.

at the end path of your photo, is she trying to turn left on your right side(outer lane) which caused the accident? if yes, then she is definitely in the wrong.

 

well, i suppose you faster report to your insurance company and let them know your situation.

Based only on my interpretation of your text and the pic, it seems that you were originally behind the car and during the right turn you caught up and ended up to the left side of the car in the same lane. Is this correct?

50km/h on the usual roads does not constitute to speeding and who is he to judge ur speed?

The other party can only claim that u were careless or reckless. But then again how many lanes for right turning?

Was the car ahead of ur bike? Safety distance? Alot of factors to consider.

Get ur gf to see doctor and get mc for insurance claims purpose.

If u are claiming insurance and u have a good case it may do u good if u get a lawyer to represent u.

I did, I won and I'm a few thousand dollars more to spend.

For certain personal insurance the mc can also be claimed. $50 dollars per day...? For accident insurance and unable to work.

Think wat u want and then do it.

I know my case. I know wat to do and I just go ahead to claim the other party.

Anyway for accident u have to report to ur insurance company even if ur not intending to claim.

im behind the car all the while . just tat when she suddenly turn then i speed up cuz i have no other way to stop . if i jam break i might skid or still hit the back of the car. there is no chance to think what to do.cuz its very suddenly and i didnt expect the car to turn in to the small road.

i was behind her and when we turn, i m at her left back . suddenly she do a left turn , even i horn she also already did a left turn . if i horn she will jam brake and i think it will be worst cuz i will just knock her back rather than now is she banged me

It's never one party at 100% fault in cases like this.

 

I'll say 60% driver's fault vs 40% biker's fault.

 

Driver failed to check blind spot while turning left while biker failed to keep a safe distance from the car by keeping to the left side of the car...

Steps to do a proper KNNBCCB with middle finger.

 

1. Bow down slightly, looking intensely at objective

2. Like a raging bull, hop and jog slowly towards objective

3. Take your left palm and slap it hard on the right mid-arm with a SLAP!

4. With charisma, raise right arm, whilst showing middle finger (with left palm trapped in bend right arm)

5. Shout! KNNBCCB

It depends on the outcome of the investigation by TP and later what the court decision on how many % to compensate you...

first thing first is report to insurance and police.

 

all the court issue let the tp investigate and stuff.

 

you sit here worrying also no use. might as well do some research and see if you can fight the case anot. correct?

 

anyway, i think both at fault la, women driver never check, you never keep safe following distance, and want to squeeze past somemore, dangerous you know? this time is gf leg, next time you might not be so lucky ,my friend.

February 2011 - March 2012 = Phantom TA 200

March 2012 - August 2013 = Suzuki Impulse 400

Present = BMW (Bus, MRT, Walk)

if i dont squeeze past , i might be knock fully by the car not the back. and just doing a right turn i must keep so far? half car length is enough ma.

This incident has just proven to you that half a car length is not enough right?

 

Not trying to make you feel more upset as it is by making you feel that you are in the wrong, but we are concerned for your safety.

 

Do follow the advice given by others with regards to the insurance and reporting. Hope it all turns out well for you. Your girlfriend is ok now?

report to insurer ba.

 

u were BEHIND her BEFORE the turn, but somehow during the turn, she slowed down while u picked up/ maintain speed. i.e. u nv maintain safety distance coz like u said, it was not safe to brake coz u might rearend her car or u might skid.

 

sry but i think that may be how the io conclude, given the way u put it across..

 

further, u went ahead to increase throttle instead of braking/ releasing throttle, knowing very well that the car is IN FRONT of you. i.e. jit tao increasing the probability of langgar.

 

my thinking has always been that if u increase throttle and bang at 100kph, u get 100kph injuries, if u release throttle/ brake to 30 kph, u get 30kph injuries, at least in such a scenario with no car behind u..

 

"Hmmz, the car IN FRONT of me is braking and eating into my lane, LET'S SPEED UP!!!" really quite hard to defend..

there is no rule that tells u how many car lengths is enough.

 

rather, the correct distance to be away from any car(s) is the distance that will give u enough time to react.

it is always changing depending on ur speeds and road conditions.

Posted

hmm... 50km/h is within the safety speed limits. but... u were behind the vehicle and u failed to keep a safe following distance to react to anything that can happen, which for your case already did happen. So i believe the case will be a victory for the driver.

Thrash? Don't mind if i do.

when u ride yr report ,

write carefully and very detail.

dun let the insurance ppl have any doubts .

 

ad pls dun put sentence like eating in to my straight road..

Posted (edited)

under such situation.. u should slow down to let it pass....rather than to ". i decide to trottle more to sneak through the space between the curb and the car."

 

as biker ..we have to exercise care if we are in the blind spot... we cannot afford them to let them make a simple mistake by not seeing that may cause our lives...so best is dun get into the area of their blind spot...of move away when we in there...cos they can't see us..... not their fault
