Near Miss Motorbike Accident

I will tell you about the time I nearly had an accident. I was riding a 249 cc motorbike on a road that’s pretty far from vehicular traffic. I was wearing my headphones on my head and no safety equipment. My motorbike was Matic Forza 250. This motorbike was said to be capable of going really fast, so I was curious to reach the maximum speed limit.

I was going really fast but then got surprised because there was a big car crossing the road. I spontaneously braked as hard as I could so that I stopped exactly 1 inch from the car. Ever since that time, I’ve never forgotten my helmet again!
