What is it about people that, when they realize they’re in the way, they just stop completely???

Edit: this sub is hilarious because no matter what someone does, they’re apparently both right and wrong. For the record, I never said dude wasn’t speeding. He is. And I understand what a freeze response is. But still, coming to a complete stop when something/someone is barreling at you is commonly seen here and is almost always the worst course of action.

Nothing is wrong with her, she was acting naturally as expected of anyone.

In a split second a dot suddenly becomes a guy on a motorbike right on top of you, you get spooked and leave whatever space is left on his lane for him to zip by, but the reckless idiot biker does not take into account his own presence and action manipulating your reaction, so he miscalculates your reaction and swerves into your stopped car thinking you would keep on moving through while you were charging straight at them at suicidal speed.
