It appears there is a bad traffic accident nearly everyday on the Island lately!! Where are all the police traffic cops – and when are people ever going to learn about the rules-of-the-road??
“Driving in an Armed land”
This is the subject of a pamphlet that describes what can happen to you in other countries if you do not obey their traffic laws.
They have Zero tolerance for those who do not show respect for other road users.
Everybody’s overtaking somebody but bikes are always making that 3rd lane that is very dangerous cause they even do it on blind corners!
” RUSH HOUR ”
You cannot always blame the motor cycle rider for choosing to ride the third lane for them it could be for him the “lesser of two evils” .
The alternate for the bike rider could be to avoid a head on collision in the third lane and take the risk of being rear ended which has equally devastating consequences by an inattentive car driver.
Speeding; Third lane ; or deliberate Tail- gating, all add up to disaster.
For the car driver ,give room, let the bike rider go, it far is better to have the bike in front of you where you can see him .
For the bike rider keep your distance from cars.
For both of you learn to share the road.
Be patience, not a Patient.
be patient
There are several life saving ways to eliminate or deter the use of the third lane.
