[Blogs] Today while riding...

[ThePole]

today saw many drivers who are crippled - no hand to turn on the signal light and eat my lane and other ppl lane.

 

one gundu p plate lady driver eat into my lane then turn on signal light and off it 3 seconds later.

Horn her to let her know wat she doing . Maybe u can ask her pullover and u teach her

[gohjohan]

well ya i think it's occupied.

 

Normally it's the passenger fault for saying they want to stop there or miscomm with the driver.

 

ok, my turn. Was at Newton Road trying to turn into Thomson Road and the green arrow is there. The white Subaru Impreza didn't move even when I horn at him

 

Either way I can't go 'cos my wife knocked off my pannier box key out of fright Wanted to scold that bugger but I decided to wait and see why he didn't move.

 

I observed him all the way to the next green arrow and then it started to rain. Thankfully I was about 3 mins to my next destination.

 

Really, I wonder what's going on with that guy. I was so tempted to pull up next to him and give him a piece of my mind

As luck would have it, the sky was overcast when I had to leave my home for school today. Reached the major T-junction turning towards queensway and waited for the lights to turn to my favour so that I could make the right turn. Lights turn, I accelarated, right turn, before I reached the on coming traffic, lighting FLASHED across the sky. AND all traffic lights short circuited. I stopped as the on coming traffic - (cars) all moved, then braked. Took me a while to realised that I had better get outta there before that area became a major traffic jam.

Wanted to buy my bike number for 4D today but, alas couldn't make it in time.

Today I didn't ride... Was raining cats and dogs and when I thought of passing through ERP and parking when going town, I decided to take public transport instead.

 

It feels good to take bus once in a while to see girls in the bus and also able to spend some time talking with friends when going home together.

While turning out from Demsey rd, saw TP road block.

 

Got abt 4 to 5 squad cars..

 

Think they round up quite a huge number of bikes....

Number was about more than 20 bikes...

Caused a huge jam all the way to the back..

 

Illegal gathering of bikes or what??

 

*strange*

nope not me i only got a sp fren now with a yellow black paintwork

yellow black sounds nice

 

today while riding, wore a rain coat that my work place provided for bikers but still end up wet maybe because rain was tooooooooo heavy

[Arin]

Just now around 9pm was on the way back home from work, a car with yellow and black paintwork met with an accident with a blue comfort taxi along Bukit Timah road towards Bukit Batok Nature Reserve....

 

From far can see lots of cars in 2nd lane in a traffic jam, so i signalled to 3rd lane... lucky I stopped in time to see the xcident and went back to 2nd lane.

 

Before that, along Orchard Road towards British Council, I was "stalked" by a Blue car. Lady driver. Dunno what she wants from me.... she suddenly tailgated me from the right lane... Then wanna overtake me. I turned my back to face her for awhile and then continued moving slowly with traffic flow. Then she zoomed past me from the left lane and tailgated the car in front. I guess she likes to test her braking power.... cuz her brake lights keep on and off constantly..

 

Then another incident at Bukit Batok infront of Hillview Condominium.... I made a left turn into the road towards Ar-Raudah mosque. There's a blue comfort taxi infront with hazard lights on. Then suddenly this Mercedes Silver Cab zoomed past from the left and went into my lane, causing my bike to wobble. I guess my pick-up speed was too slow for him. When he wanna turn right towards Guilin, which I'm heading too as well, I stopped by his cab and looked at him smiled. When light turns green, I happily made the right turn and left him behind with the other cars waiting to make a right-turn.

the junction is dangerous, take that route to school daily.A rider if I'm not wrong was killed there because of a female driver.

 

that female driver you talking about probably had some big ahem, sit 90 degrees straight, step on accelerator too hard and let go, engine brake and she press brake I've seen many ladies driving this way. Weird

[Pplater]

everywhere also will have rider killed one.. just a matter of how many and where. Junctions, like everywhere also many, though some more deadly than others. Haiz...

[Arin]

I now understand y guys dislike lady drivers so much... They always cut into my lane. I even got a bad experience with a lady driver 2 months ago when she suddenly cut into my lane as I was turning into Raffles CT carpark.

 

By the way... to all fellow riders... Gong Xi Fa Cai, Xin Nian Kuai Le Ride Safe!

[Raptor]

Happiness is getting a chance to squeeze in 2 hours of practice at the supermotard track just now.

 

And then the winter rains came down... no fun riding in the rain home when the temperature is around 10 degrees C. Brrrrrr....

[Sensible]

while sending my gf home yest at abt 11plus night, saw 2 TP bikes blinking form far.. Upon closer look, saw a taxi and car collide at the junction of jalan eunos and bedok reservoir rd..

 

Right side headlight of taxi was smashed, right side for car..

Guess the taxi was tuning right into the junction, car was going straight.

 

Sigh, junction is damn dangerous..

Never breat the red light at esp Junctions!

[Sensible]

Huat Ar !!!!

[haizz_]
