[Blogs] Today while riding...

Fatal? Someone died?

I wish I did. It was a miracle as what doctors said that I survived. I was in a coma.

My doctors also said the same thing to me... And my pillion was only warded for 2-3 days to undergo observation of her slightly fractured right elbow.

Haha... New group for metal plate users? I'll be the first to join... Share experience... >_

 

No witnesses to counter the mofo's claim? If I am TP, I would know a rider's worry when riding cuz I'm a rider too, if I wasn't on the TP bike, see how these mofos drive.

[Jehuty]

its not a crime to go real quick cos speed is subjective.

 

it is to change lanes without looking.

 

Mofo did not change lane, mofo popped out, good thing I usually ride like a madman, you learn alot from riding with hooligans, especially what to do in unforseen scenarios, it becomes second nature cuz you're used to it

But u can't avoid wat u can't see. That's my worry. for eg: from the direct left or right sides.

I mean when u and the car beside u both going straight but the car on ur left or right decides to change lane without looking. i assume when u ride, u will check ur side mirrors now and then but not look to your direct left and right correct?

 

ya when i go pass cross junctions, I do check the left and right traffic.

Won't cause a mess. Only helmet hairstyle. I find that changing helmet somehow gave my hair a better look than my previous one. Lol.

Drivers got habits, just like riders like you and me, if they change gradually, they will most of the time do, if they are the sort that change suddenly, well usually those drivers are goin fast. Don't stay in their blindspot, make yourself obvious. Either overtake quickly if you see them like driving relaxed, if they are goin fast zipping around, give caution and ample space so they will kill themselves and not you if they happen to screw up.

 

I usually ride faster than everyone else, I don't hang beside a car for too long, I take extra precaution with drivers of powerful cars because they usually have big egos too, poor sh!ts doesn't know bikes will always be faster in traffic...honestly they should stop trying, especially acceleration against a class 2 sportsbike or a supermoto but they will never learn.

[ah_vic811605199361]

i really hope sg garvment says those who passed their class 3 must take bike practical lesson. let them have a feel of the one u bang has a mother and father or some are mother or father.

Very off topic. Easiest solution is not to ride a bike.

That will only be for drivers with bike licence or knows about bikes. Not for those who do not even have any knowledge about bikes.

 

Took public yesterday to Tampines Ikea because of the downpour. I was crossing the pedestrian crossing to go over to Giant supermarket. Green man was on and red light for vehicles. Already crossed half of the pedestrian crossing and a dark blue car just zoomed and beat the red light. Thankfully I have nothing in my hand to throw at the car. Fancy beating a red light after its been on for more than 5 seconds. I guess now also need to start recording journeys as pedestrian too. :what:

 

Got a reply from both TP and smrt taxis about the taxi that jeopardise the safety of my pillion and mine. Thanks for those that suggested I do that.

Should make it a punishment la, those the go bang riders, will be tied up as a pinata then kena whack repeatedly till he's at an inch of his life left.

agree, at first like to bully. but when we appear fiercer than them, all suddenly became scared.

 

I remember once i was being horned at a right turn only lane, but light was red. so i put my side stand down, got down and started to walk to the car, the driver immediately put his hand up say Sorry sorry.

 

inside car all act like king. drag them outside become like pussies.

 

can't agree more.

Last weekend, while riding, I was behind a truck on an empty 3 lane road, and BOOMZzzz!!!

It mounted the kerb on the right!

Luckily I was not besides it.

Thats nasty. I ever witnessed a trailer going over a divider to do a U-turn as the driver was lazy to go to the end to make a proper one. This happened at Toh Guan before the extension of the expressway was completed. I was walking to a friend's place when it happened. I guess they have this mentality they drive bigger vehicle hence they are invincible so never give a thought about other road users like us riders.

On my way home last night, saw TP & a Malaysia big lorry on the opposite direction stopping in the middle of the road (Exit portsdown road, towards Commonwealth). I was thinking "TP catch Malaysia lorry, nothing serious".

 

On my way to work this morning, the lorry & the TP still there! Can't see clearly because it was opposite of me, but I saw the trailer dislodged from the prime mover.

 

How did they spend more than 10 hours down there, waiting for rescue? LOL!
