It happens to all of us – one moment we’re on one side, in a split second, we remember we need to switch direction. Switching lanes without checking your surroundings can be fatal. Chances are, there are other cars and motorcycles driving on the road behind you.
Prepare them for your next action, even if they are a few metres back. Gauging their speed level is ambitious. Don’t make it difficult for them to slow down to allow you access to their side. Keeping an eye for motorcycles – you might not see them driving close by.
