LOOK WHERE YOU WANT TO GO:

In racing, the motto is “look past to go past”. What this means is that if you are following someone that you want to pass, don’t look at him. Look at that little piece of track that he has left open, and go to it.

In an emergency situation on the street, riders often fixate on whatever it is they want to avoid. Since the tendency is to go where you look, this brings the rider right to the object. If you are practicing good street riding behavior, you will be constantly scanning the area around you, and continually providing yourself with escape routes.

If something suddenly appears in front of you, simply look to your escape route, and make the appropriate bar inputs (remember - COUNTERSTEER!)
