From my point of view, definitely... it was probably coming from the opposite direction from the temple... (i've drawn a pic) It was a split-second thing... if I didn't swerve... sure gone... my whole front part of the car sure gone... Good driving skills? Not really. That was LUCKY!
As shown in the pic... the red arrow was 'supposed' to be how the bike got in front of the car (which was the car that I was following)... so, because I was following the car, the car hit the bike instead of me... that's why I was able to swerve to the left when I saw the car suddenly applied brake when there's clearly nothing in front of him (which I later found out he crashed into a bike from my rear mirror), after I managed to avoid a direct crash into his rear. Why did I say the bike came from the temple from the opposite direction? The bike was an Indian. Well... as we passed by the temple, there was some kind of function with cars parked by the road side. If the bike did indeed come from the temple to go through the traffic light and to the next lane.. it's because it's quite far to make an u-turn. (updated with a better illustration)
DYKT I havent been here for so loong... DYKT i have a problem and it's in the tech support section..plz help.. DYKT babe wars thread is still going strong...wow
DYKT : This is why so many accidents involve motorcyclists. DYKT : Here in Malaysia, as far as motocycles are concerned, there is no traffic light... there is no law... there is no speed limit. Everywhere is a road. Every direction is legit. As long as you have two wheels, a running engine and you are still alive, you can do any damn thing you please.
