My rule is simple, just consider every other driver/rider on the road a complete maniac, capable of doing anything at any point of time. Trust me, thats all it takes.

Today, this helped me save my Vtec from a lot of trouble. I was following a Trax with a lot of load in it, obviously he was travelling at snails pace, blocking the entire road. There was no room on the right hand side, for me to overtake. So i went to the left side and was about to accelerate (since it was a divided road - like a small expressway), when it suddenly struck me. ""What if there's a car trying to cross the road through one off the gaps between the divider?"" and bamm, there it came!!! A silver zen coming from the other side, just cut across the road making the Trax swerve to a halt, while i just about made it with a little tyre squeal but no contact what so ever.

If i were to accelerate and overtake him from the left i'd have hit that Zen at around 60-80 kmph, ouch!!

I dunnu how or why, but just before something like this happens, i get this wierd feeling in my stomach, as if it's trying to give me a hint, to the disaster about to happen.

When it comes to driving, i trust no-one but me.
