Usually this is a result of the motorcyclist driving too fast or a vehicle (car or truck) pushing them off the road. Thai drivers seem to think that motorcycles don't have a right to the road. They try to push you over from the back or pull up beside you and push you to the side of the road from the side. Had this happen to me just today. I was in slow traffic following a car on my motorcycle and a  pick up truck run right up on my back end and started honking their horn. There was nowhere to go in front of me. It's stupidity and arrogance.

The last one I can remember it was just a case of the lady being **** drunk.

Other common causes include texting while riding overpass.

Still yes, a decent amount of car drivers are out to kill us.
