As a matter of interest, why do bikers like to ride on or near
the dottedroad markings between the Lane ONE and TWO ?
Why do the bikers not ride in the middle of the lane - either Lane
ONE and go fast at 110 kmh or more; or Lane TWO or Lane THREE and
go at 110 kmh or less ?
I have noticed that even on Lane THREE or FOUR, sometimes there are
very few vehicles, or there is gaps of 100 to 300 meters between
each of the large slow vehicles (that still travel about 70 to 80
kmh on most expressways).
Riding the bike along the dotted road markings, and between two
fast lanes, is just asking for trouble.
When two fast vehicles tavel past a bike, the air stream can make
the bike unstable.
Furthermore, the paint used on the dotted line can be slippery even
on normal days, and worst during the rainy period.
Interesting to learn from bikers about this very unusual death
invititng habit....
