10/13 Bike dudes, I went on my motorcycle and at around 70MPH turned my
wheels. When I turn right, I swerve to the left, and when I turn
left, I swerve to the right. In another word, I turn OPPOSITE
to where I turn the handle. I didn't die.
\_ Miss America 2000, we are once again in need of your services!
\_ If the hag on the bike had followed the rules of the road she
would still be alive today.
\_ And what was she driving when she killed that cyclist?
You guessed it, an SUV. A Lincoln Navigator, to be exact.
\_ looked on Google, can't find anything, hence your story
is fake.
\_ this is called countersteering. You do it so that you have enough
momentum to lean into the turn so that when you turn you don't
tip over in the opposite direction from the centrifugal force.
\_ My biker physics TA told the class about it too, but I didn't
understand his explanation. |
