The CCTV camera shows how a motorcycle that skidded in a humid bend on the Hatton-Nuwaraeliya road collided with a lorry and escaped with ninety-nine lives.

🚨 A security camera (CCTV) system has recorded how a motorcycle running on the wet road skidded and collided with a lorry coming from the opposite direction at a sharp bend in the Kudagama area of ​​the Hatton - Nuwara Eliya main road. ​While taking the curve, the motorcycle lost control, dragged on the ground and collided with the front wheel of the lorry coming in front and stopped. Due to the fact that the driver of the lorry immediately stopped the vehicle by using the brakes, and the motorcyclist did not get under the wheel of the lorry in a fraction of a second, he was able to save his life without any serious injuries. Immediately after seeing the accident, the local residents and the people in the lorry rushed to pick up the motorcyclist. ​"Photographs of this accident are published to help create a society free from road accidents through safe driving." ​📷 Photo / Video Credit: Original Owner (Sent by - Kavindu Perera | Team1st) Road Safety Lesson (Road Safety Lesson and Investigation) Wet Road Surface & Traction Loss Risk of Slipping in Moist Mountain Bends: In rainy weather, the traction of the tires is greatly reduced due to the presence of water and a thin layer of mud on the asphalt road surface. Unnecessary leaning of the motorcycle or sudden application of brakes during hilly turns directly leads to wheel slip and loss of control. Defensive Braking Reaction of the lorry driver: The driver of the lorry coming from the opposite direction was careful and drove at a controlled speed and applied the brakes immediately, thus preventing the motorcyclist from falling under the wheel and preventing great loss of life. Speed ​​control and helmet protection on mountain roads: It is essential to reduce speed and drive only in your own lane when passing mountain blind corners. Wearing a standard safety helmet prevents head injuries in these types of slips. In case of an accident, call 1990 Suvasaria Ambulance Service immediately.
