Posting here to be the witness of possible hit and run.

 

On 7 Aug 2015 at 8.47pm, I was on the way home on PIE towards ECP. Just before the eunos exit, I saw you, a biker and your pillion which skidded from middle lane and fell to the third lane. I'm not sure whether you really skidded as there was a yellow car following very closely behind you. I was about 100m away behind the yellow car. Based on what I remembered that his car distance to your bike is about half a bonnet length all the way from he filtered behind you till your fall.

 

The road was slightly damp from the rain, but definitely no signs of water puddles or oil spill. I saw that he tried to stop 200m away after your fall, but eventually drove off. Since then, he kept to lane 3 and drove at a very slow spend at about 60km/hr. Initially all of us are in the middle lane at the driving spend of about 74km/hr based on my in car gps. Hence, I'm not sure whether your skid was due to his tailgate which accidentally bump onto your backside. My car cam was unable to capture his carplate clearly as I was too far from him.

 

However, if he is really the driver who caused your fall, I'm willing to be your witness and provide the relevant video scene which my car cam had captured.

Very helpful of you to be volunteer. However, perception should not be forwarded, in case it prejudiced against the innocent. You already mentioned your doubt, so it can complicate investigation/evidence.

Example: I ever saw a travelling motorcycle just simply fell onto the dry road surface for no obvious reason. Lost of balance? Blackout? Hit a stone? No one knows for sure.

 

Yes. You may be right and there can be many possibilities. That's why I'm notifying to that biker through here if that car really hit him, I can assist by providing the relevant in cam evidence. Ultimately, its still up to the IO to decide the final outcome. Lane 2 and 3 were totally clear in front of the bike during that period. That bike was riding in the centre of the middle lane. Hence it makes no sense why one still have stubbornly to tailgate so closely in that kind of situation. Maybe just bad driving attitude.
