OK ...

If that driver had not panicked and hit the brakes ...

but instead ---

The driver should have hit the fuel and pulled the handlebars hard while pushing down on the foot pegs . There would have been a GOOD chance of landing rear wheel first and keeping control while landing in a strait line.

Its been my experience that : Hitting the brakes is NOT the best choice 90% of the time ,
but its the FIRST thing folks do ;
unless they have play "What if" in their minds for any situation they can think of .

you know buckleing his helmet would have been a good idea too ! Grin

,

Oh Yea !!! Tongue

When did OldFeller get a scooter ??? Grin

Now, now, MM --- it was Lancer who got caught out between the two cars passing and had to split the lane between the two of them with inches to spare.

The worst I ever did was pass somebody in a tunnel with no oncoming traffic. (one of my better Hurley intimidations)
