the difference between having a big brake vs a small brake
the brake pad u use also plays a role
EBD playes a roles as well

So he shouldn’t blame the roadblock. Inferior car should be driven in more defensive style.

And looks like he’s going faster than 90km/h. I think speed in that area is 90km/h.

the pickup is taller so think can see way earlier. beside the pickup is inside lane whereas the fast car is view is blocked by the pickup.

Defensive driving 101: if you can’t see much in front of you, slow down.

Is that a highway or not first? Coz that car was travelling pretty fast. Probably 110kmh d nearing the end when he pecut...

The roadblock maybe on straight stretch... but then it built up until the curve section.

It’s a no toll highway and speed limit normally for highway in kuantan is 90km/h.

can't avoid it
u use ceramic brake doesn't mean other ppl use ceramic brake
and got rear ended for that reason
same situation, jam right at the bend, blind spot before it happen
i brake, the kancil behind me brake
i can brake in time because i have a slightly bigger brake, better brake pad and havs ABS EBD
kancil don't have ABS EBD, smaller disc and pretty sure normal brake pad
he can't stop in time and slam through my rear bumper(he try to swerve)
he wasn't even going that fast because it was a bendy road

Always give way to speeding inferior car to prevent getting hit from behind.

no one is speeding nor anyone is tailgating
it's just a matter of weak and small brake vs good brake
on a normal free road, if someone wants to speed, i'll always give way but that road is a bendy road with double line in the middle

Then you guys are just unlucky.

Like i said earlier, inferior car should be driven 20-30km/h below speed limit. Maybe car manufacturer should start to advertise 60km/h-0 braking distance.

kinda blindspot cornering...when can't see clearly in front feet must release the pedal and standby on the brake

This is the right defensive driving method. Same like going uphill, don’t speed towards the peak as you can’t see what’s going on beyond the peak.

like i say before...should and will is 2 different
they "should", but u can't stop them from speeding

plus using different brake pad material, the 60-0 braking distance is different..even by using the same disc

At least they can advertise stock braking distance.
