Daniu82 Supercharged August 4, 2019 Share August 4, 2019 The taxi driver is smoking out the cockroaches from his cab ah? Like that already still can continue to drive. ↡ Advertisement 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PSP415 Supersonic August 4, 2019 Share August 4, 2019 Look left, look right but never look at the car in front. Must always look infront till one is at pole position/become first vehicle or bike. Then check left n right before moving off. No matter how safe, if car or bike infront no move off, no use. Years ago, kissed another ride when i checked and saw no more vehicles. But driver infront dreaming or goondu or waiting for red carpet to go, i dunno. He did not drive off. I did. From then onwards, i focus on the one infront to move off first and it must be 100% moved off or if he/she brakes, also can kena. Just sharing Safe ride Cheers 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

adrian140180 5th Gear August 4, 2019 Share August 4, 2019 Look left, look right but never look at the car in front. I have to admit this is how I got into my accidents long time back.Over anticipation of the traffic around you, except the most obvious part of you, the front. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ct3833 Supersonic August 5, 2019 Share August 5, 2019 (edited) Many of us here were younger before, we made stupid mistake, so now our responsibility is to teach the young and the inexperience to avoid same mistakes we have made before. After my sons passed their driving tests, I have been with them on the passenger seat to coach them on defensive driving and pitfall avoidance, i find that apprache has been effective. The other key factor is that we have to show them the right driving attitude, if we ourselves drive recklessly and irresponsibly , then we can forget about coaching them.

13177 Supersonic August 6, 2019 Share August 6, 2019 (edited) Not enough skill. I think more like poor judgement and impatient, the driver thought that the bus driver would see the car and give way, too bad the bus continue to move and the car also filter out too slow. And the car driver could have wait for the Lancer to move off, dont know why the driver wants to filter out? Edited August 6, 2019 by 13177 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
