I think you have been here long enough to know better?What could solve this issue is the police being trained in ''scene management''

But like said the problem here is the fear of public beating even if you are the cause of accident or not.

Edit. and the public beating is much more common when car is involved. When bikes have collision it's rare to happen.
What could solve this issue is the police being trained in ''scene management'', it always amazes me when things like this happen, the amount of police that just stand looking, not moving on gawkers, not making sure evidence is collected or not damaged with people walking everywhere and best, actually watching a mob beat down a purp before stepping in before they kill them (sometimes after they have been killed).
Its a sad state of affairs when running from a scene is more appropriate than staying put because not even the police will help should it all go tits up.

If the accident isn't serious damage, people rarely beat the drivers. Many drivers try to flee the scene. I heard many people say drive a car is safer than riding bike. Of course we rarely see motor bikes cause serious traffic accident. But most of them are victim. I don't mean all car drivers don't pay attention with their driving but most are. Show off and think they are priority if they have a Modern car. More expensive is safer! But never think they still die if they don't understand each other.rogerrabbit wrote:Exactly!

I honestly don't know, it would be a very interesting study / survey to do but i think your thinking is correct.. ''Is it cause they know that justice will NOT be given?''

After such a horrific event, there is shock,fear, anger and adrenaline. When you have seen this:
[WARNING: this is a shocking photo showing the bodies on the road after the accident.Don't look if the idea makes you sick.]
It might make you want to do this:
Not defending anyone, I definitely don't believe in mob justice, but it's not so surprising that when some idiot has almost killed you and you've seen some innocent kids splattered on the road, you go into primal mode and want to hurt the guy who's responsible.
There is also the mob mentality where one person starts and everyone piles on. And of course, it doesn't help that the police are extremely passive.
