You serve also, escape path. But they took the wrong path.
Could be they could notanticipate that cars intention.... Cut half way, stop, then move a bit, stop, etc. However not all riders have good reaction and make right decisions during panic time
You just described defensive driving/riding, which many bikers don't practise. In Penang, bikers seldom honk in situations that they should, macam will become pondan if they honk.
Any stationary car with driver still inside (signal light on, brake lights on, etc) is a potential hazard - door open suddenly (seen a few times), car suddenly moves out/turn out/u turn...
Well said
I as a biker, I too at times almost get swipped by other reckless riders.
Many bikers are risk takers. Taking things for granted
Taking risks in some scenerio is ok, but not when riding or recent driving.
And I fucking hate drivers who signal the moment they change lane. And not signal for few seconds first before making the move.
Do you in US or Australia, couldn't recall where.... Your indicator need to blink a few times before you can make your move. Last minute signalling is not allowed.
what do u expect from marehsians. some driving instructors also didn't stress out the importance of signaling. test time, kasi kow tim sama tester. worse still, these drivers lesen terbang.
Honk to warn/alert Which is before the other road users make their move.
Don't be shy to honk.
If you can, change to a big horn I changed mine to a car horn ( BM horn,. Hella) It makes a big difference. As you know some drivers don't give a damn to booked small horn. Beep beep
But the moment the hear a car horn, they will take notice because they thought it is another car or big vehicle. You should see how some drivers react when they cut into my lane without looking and I blast the horn. Can see them get jolted up. Hahaha.

As usual la motor rempit morons only know how to ride in a straight line. They dont understand the concept of defensive riding and purposely hoping a car hit them so they can claim money from the driver. Thata why u have these poor rempits always going around looking for accidents so they get money. Hope they mampos cepat
Dont be ignorance. This case clearly myvi fault, no need plotek. And defensive driving also exist, so you wont make stupid bodo decision like this myvi driver.
Man I am enjoying ddfm video every night, and now you say there's another. Will check him out too. 😊
Last night ddfm was very pissed off return that bugger who rode 267kmh with a pillion, and the pillion fell off from the bike at that speed. Don't know she survived or not

You are right. In fact started already 3 days ago. I was riding on the left lane and on the right lane someone decided to turn right and that made all the cars behind him came to a halt. I started honking already to notify them just in case they wanted to do what the Merc did.
Use to be a silent rider, thought can avoid others from road rage. But the horn has a purpose, I better hell use it for my safety.

yup. put in an order for china copy of "stebel nautilus compact" during yesterday's 11.11 sale. hoping it would be louder than the bosch twin tone currently in use. i find the 2 snail horn still doesnt give enough jolt to many drivers inside their soundproof cocoon

When you have it installed let me know the quality Might need to upgrade mine too
This car just cut out like this. The distance from the bike to the car is consider quite near as it is on a main road. Dont say bike. I don't think even a car will be able to stop on time.
Rides slowly and keep a proper distance. Keeps giving a reason, you will end up like this. As long you are riding, practise defensive driving. You are on the receiving end.
