In the real world it's not always a car that gets you…

I cannot see what possessed her to stop. There seemed to be nothing coming from her right to prevent her from just going along on her way.

That wasn't a pcx. You can tell by the groceries between her legs. It looked to me like she was a new rider and couldn't turn very well, so she stopped so she could ease it into a turn (into her lane, which, being India should have been on her left side.)

Looks like she got away lucky with her helmet on and by retracting her leg. Not so much for the helmetless other guy. Highway speeds on back roads seems a little crazy.

Sad scene. o_O

It makes you wonder what she was thinking or what could have gone wrong with the mechanicals, electronics, or fuel system too. :roll:

It kind of reminds me of what I see daily here. Drivers look right, and then turn left, without ever checking left.

Or here is another favorite:

"If I pull out into the intersection first you can't hit me because I got there first, so I can slow down when crossing a busy intersection."
(It happens here so often that I am surprised that the law hasn't put up a sign saying," Just because you get there first, doesn't mean you are right."

Here's another one for you . . ..
