C5 accident (WARNING: Graphic pics)

[Ferdy_Fenduko]

Kinililabutan ako dun a. Not to offend yung namatay or not to generalize din lahat ng nagmo-motor, madalas naman kasi yung mga nagmomotorbike because of their size ginagamit nila leverage yun para sumingit na lang sa kalsada. kung minsan mahirap din makita sa side mirror kung may katabi ka na motorbike Most tricycles din ganun. Dadaanin ka sa pitik-pitik para tingnan kung matatakot ka after all pag nabangga mo ikaw pa din liable kasi maliit sasakyan nila. Doble ingat talaga pag motor at least stay sa right side ng road. at least kung tilapon ka bangketa ka lang.

To add lang, example lang ng gumagamit ng leverage sa size nila ito. Minsan pa right turn ako sa may village namin. right-signal and everything nagulat ako may sumisingit na motor sa tabi ko kakanan din. Bumusina pa siya at minura ako kasi di daw ako tumitingin. Sino ba naman mag-aakala tumingin pa sa right side ng car pag ganun? Siyempre hingi na lang nag pasensiya para wala na lang gulo... tao nga naman. Haaayy

.

ot: ako nakikita ko ung mga 'blind spots' sa gilid ng asakyan ko.
ng ginawa ko nilagyan ko nang dalawang maliit na 'wide angle/blind
spots mirrors' ung dalawang side mirrors ko. madalas di na rin ako
lumilingon sa sides ko kung nag che-change lanes ako. sa rearview
mirror na lang ako tumitingin, kasi kita ko ung magkabilang blind
spots both side ng sakyan ko. subukan mong lagyan ng 'blind
spots mirrors' magkabilaan ang side mirrors mo, para kita mo
ung magkabilang blind spots sa sides mo. kahit motorsiklo,
or tao nasa gilid mo mapapansin mo sila.

daming ganyan na underbone riders. yung naka signal ka na liliko ka pero o-overtake sila sa banketa. Tsktsk, tapso pag bumusina ka sila pa ang magagalit at magbibigay ng masamang tingin. Nakaktikimng mura yung mga yun sa akin.

drive or ride responsibly. grabe ito, masakit ulo ko lalong sumakit.

[MadoX]

really sad to see something like this could happen sa atin.

those who ride motor cycles keep away from PUV's and trucks... these people don't usually have proper driving ethics and don't really care what they do. and don't ride in the middle of the streets, IT'S JUST NOT SAFE (kahit mas mabilis)

those in cars... careful lang talaga... and always keep a cool head

:suka:
:rip:

Kakasakit ng ulo just by looking at the pictures. Basag-basag yong helmet a. Ride safe lagi sana.

mga sir, yung nasagasaan sa c-5 na naka raider150, ay taga sa amin lang po... sobra lang talagang pasaway yun kahit dito sa lugar namin kung mag patakbo yun, halos ubusin nya ang reb nya eh... pero as a rider, nakaka-awa pa din sya at sa naiwan nyang pamilya.

sana maging tanda sa lahat itong nangyaring ito. sana maging alerto tayo sa lahat.. maging sa naka bisikleta lang. presence of mine... at kung maaari lang iwasan po natin ang makipag karera sa kawa bikers natin sa kalsadang pang publiko.

mabuhay po kayong lahat!

I agree with this one...

Don't ride in the middle of the streets, IT'S JUST NOT SAFE (kahit mas mabilis)

I also used to think of it this way however, it happens that it's not because you're already at either the side of the road or Lane means you're already safe, the fact that you are lane-splitting (though lane splitting is safe in some respect to prevent collision in medium to heavy traffic) reduces the motorcycle's visibility to other road users same with being on the road sides than running at the middle of the road/lane, causing incidences like motorcyclists getting sideswiped by other vehicles because they were not seen and when the motorcyclists are lane splitting on a high-speed traffic (it confuses the other motorist as to identifying which lane the motorcycle is going to take or if not if the motorcycle is on the side of the road, same thing happens, it's presence is being reduced to other motorists having these motorbikes sideswiped, I'd say ride motorcycles as if it's a car on high speed traffic, a motorcycle is also a vehicle and I reckon that it also has a right to occupy a lane space as big as a car can occupy, just my two cents...
