Seems like he was apologetic la… maybe he was dreaming and didn’t pay attention to traffic

This type I might stop and ask if he’s ok

The way he fell, he could have sustained a wrist or radius/ulna forearm fracture

 

[Sauron]

Noob spotted

 

[enimen]

He still clap his hand



For what ah?????

Congratulate himself for successful stunt of falling over?

 

[deathan9el]

tsk
should have mentioned the brand of tyres used

 

[orpisia]

Heng the camcar alert lor if not

 

[enimen]

ok la.. he apologized.. so forget and forgive la

not like some other cyclists, ya ya papaya

U guys too lenient la.

I believe he's trying to chiong the red light, hence the high speed.
The red man is already out + high speed suggest he's trying to speed across before the red light turns green.

But he didn't expect the green light to turn so fast so he ebrake.

This is a case of trying to dash across but failed

 

[ExcuseRMJ]

looks painful sia. After the adrenaline rush at that moment , ache confirm come back

 

[Ethan_]

Wow can I know what brake brand he using Jin good

Think looks more like applied too much force one the front brake. That's why fly. If more on the rear brake, think at most slide only.

 

[mige16]

I’m sorry I lol.

 

[Dr Stephen Strange]

Forward roll only la. Where got fly? Cheat moi feelings.

 

[Shion]

what a fool. i dun sympathize such ppl.

 

[Suporter]

Bicycle simi brand ?

Think probably cause from far saw that the adjacent traffic still moving. Thus assumed not so fast light change. Therefore chiong. Only to meet with light change when reached junction.

Spoiler

Think those who use traffic crossing alot will know. Quite some traffic lights if don't press the pedestrian crossing button the pedestrian walking light won't even come up.

Got alot of silly people out there is hai-si-lang. First to traffic light don't bother press for pedestrian crossing. Then those who came later one all assumed its pressed already. Since the first person is already there and standing so close to the button blocking it.

End up when traffic light change and traffic move, the pedestrian light not up. All stunned tio. Some will just cross since its safe to cross given traffic just move. Rest will just gong-gong stand there wait for next round. And remembered to press the button this time. But will be a long wait when its a big junction.

That's why at times can see why some people ham-tum the button again even when they came later. Cause won't know in front all are gong-kia or not, never press in the first place.

Spoiler

Anyway, given the unreliable performance of the pedestrian walking light. Quite some won't bother cross just base on the pedestrian crossing when they came late to the crossing and see light no change. For this no change can often be so when there is no other pedestrian first at the junction when traffic light change and traffic just started moving.

So, they become flexible and adapted to watch the adjacent traffic and traffic light also. So as to to further gauge if its still safe to cross. Since its still pedestrian crossing time, just that no one press for the crossing, thus the light won't change, but doesn't mean its not ok to cross.

Think this may be the case for the cyclist bah. Saw that the adjacent traffic still moving. But think he made the wrong judgement. Cause more important is need to see the adjacent traffic light got change or not. If not, its still ok to cross. If already red, then its not ok to cross. Regardless if the rest of the traffic still moving or not. Cause traffic light change will soon to come. Which is what this case perhaps.

Maybe, but he apologised.

Everyone makes mistakes.

Would you rather some cyclist kpkb or demand it’s your fault for causing him to fall?

I was re watching the video..
It may be a bit hard to see, but the adjacent traffic light shows:
At 12 sec, traffic light turned amber (for adjacent traffic)
At 15 sec, traffic light turned red (for adjacent traffic)
At 19 sec, dashcam side the traffic turn green, that's when the cyclist fell over


There's about 4 sec of reaction time when the traffic light turn red to slow down liao.. even longer if consider the amber

If cyclist based his judgement on moving cars, then it's not accurate as we all know many cars will try to squeeze across the junction to pass red light during heavy jam

That's why think the cyclist misjudged. Should have continued to look out for the adjacent traffic light change when moving up close. If change for red already should not cross. Regardless of traffic still moving or not.

If got observed, think usually if adjacent traffic light still green, as long as cross onto the road already, even if adjacent traffic light change red then, still will have time to cross finish one. Given the few seconds transition time for different light change and few seconds motorist reaction time to move off from light change. But its a no no when its red already. Will not have enough time to cross finish one.

 

[blue666]

At least he bother to stop

 

[cearmouse]

Why he using front brake only..
