The MB went through a red light and is totally guilty the honda thought he could go and all of a sudden saw a speeding car going at her. The decision was wrong but clearly the MB is the main guilty party and should be held liable and lose his license or more. Going through red lights is something that should really be cracked down on. But your right that the honda could have gone faster but that does not excuse the MB. 37 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some equate slow with safe, false assumption. Correct it depends on the situation but in many cases slow is safer. Not in this case though. I have been frozen in the past while driving my motorbike. I was 16, helmet fogged up raining all of a sudden a obstacle appeared on the road and i froze. Thankfully the crash was not too bad. I should have steered away or hit my brake. Not everyone always responds right to danger. I certainly did not at that time ????, some who saw the accident were amazed i stood up. Bike was damaged a lot. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bike was damaged a lot. We've probably all been there. Recently driving through an odd configured 4 way stop I couldn't see what light was mine or where it was at so I followed the car in front who was running a red light apparently, I could have caused an accident had I not sped up and completed my turn. Relative motion keeps you safe. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Card Posted January 28, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted January 28, 2022 Definitely the MB vault by speeding through a red light. The white car hesitates because she does not know what the MB wants to do. She expects it to drive in front of her and so slows to let it through. 11 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because most here do not respect red light, so better move with caution. The Benz mus also be the wost possible driver, 3 lanes to avoid and made the worst possible choice. Not to mention the car was probably aroun 100 kph for such impact 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post HarrySeaman Posted January 28, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted January 28, 2022 When I moved to Thailand in 2002 I lived off of Soi 71. Shortly after moving there I was in a taxi going up 71st to Phetchaburi road on my way to Fortune Town mall. At the corner we encountered a traffic accident. Involved was a Mercedes-Benz, a Jaguar, and a big BMW. The most expensive traffic collision I have ever seen. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
