A motorcyclist has gone viral today after swerving to avoid a car and ending up in a gutter, resulting in a spectacular crash. The video of this incident has garnered over 1.3 million views after being posted online.
The recklessness of some drivers often leads to accidents on the road, where many lives have been lost, especially among motorbike riders. Despite the warnings and regulations imposed by the government and road authorities, a significant percentage of accidents involve motorcycles rather than four-wheeled vehicles. The ease of acquiring a motorcycle and its affordable monthly payments have led to an increase in the number of motorcyclists on the road since the pandemic, including some who are underage and lack proper documentation.
Motorcycles are also frequently used in criminal activities due to their speed and maneuverability in traffic and tight spaces.
The viral video serves as evidence that accidents happen due to the carelessness of drivers. In reality, the gutter the motorcyclist passed through was not intended for motorcycles. It’s important to admit that our stubbornness and the belief that we are skilled drivers lead us to attempt the impossible on the road. Despite the government’s efforts to prevent accidents through regulations and enforcement, it often starts with our behavior.
