Watch out for Traffic. Anticipate what the Cager will Do!

I have handled many motorcycle accident cases where Cagers (people in cars) cut right into a biker. (person on motorcycle) In this video courtesy of youtube.com you will get a first hand look from the biker's point of view how fast an accident can happen. You will notice that the traffic on the right was slowing, and the traffic in front of the biker was slowing, as well as the traffic to the left. This accident could have been prevented if the biker slowed down and left herself an out.
If you are on a motorcycle you just cannot ignore traffic. You must watch your surroundings and other traffic and try to anticipate the cagers moves. There is no way this accident was in anyway the fault of the biker. However, if she was watching her surroundings and slowed down, she may have been able to either swerve out of the way or even stop. Only god really knows. The point of this article is; SLOW DOWN, ANTICIPATE, and maybe you will you will keep both wheels on the road instead of ending up in the emergency room.
You will also notice that this biker was wearing full leathers, helmet, and gloves. It probably saved her life! Click on the arrow button to start the video.

The accident was in no way her fault.

She's very competent on her bikes and a safety advocate. Consider how much cushion she had before the cager locked up and spun in front of her.
I have been in a few bad situations that could have resulted in disaster and have gone down twice. Luckily I was not seriously injured.
I think that these kinds of videos and the sharing of experiences will help all motorcyclist to be more cautious and exercise offensive and defensive tactics to help us all keep both wheels on the road.
Thanks Again,
Norm
