Nah from an insurance POV the Mazda would be at fault due to the bike already being in the lane. The driver of the Mazda should be aware of his surroundings at all times when merging and not just in the prior head check.

Bike hasn't done anything wrong by going in the next lane and speeding up.

ahhh yes. undertakes a car (illegal) then blames car driver because when he looked it was clear.....

waits for shit storm...

Passing on the left on a multi-lane road is not undertaking and perfectly legal

and this is why the drivers in australia are some of the worst in the developed world.

also last bit of trolling for the day.....

The rider of a bicycle must not ride past, or

overtake, to the left of a vehicle that is turning left
and is giving a left change of direction signal.
technically the car was doing this as he got level with it. so in the eyes of the law he is undertaking and therefor in the wrong....

Whilst I fully agree, I must give in to my inner Ozzy and tell you to 'Gobackhomethen you pommy git' :P

i love ya man! and you know im more aussie than you, cos chevy, but this is ridiculous man... the bike isnt even in the left of his lane! i agree with birds on this one...

May as well keep feeding the troll...

Do you not understand "And"? The car is not turning left -and- giving a left change of direction signal, he's changing lanes.

And most developed countries have the same rule, except it's for passing on the right for the LHD countries.

Yes the bike could have positioned himself better, but doesn't make how he rode illegal

Also he started changing lanes prior to indicating, so still the driver is in the wrong.

True dat.

The first thing I got taught in the HART rider training course was to never sit in a drivers blind spot, and to never travel in the left lane. Car drivers have issues seeing a bus let alone a motorbike in their left mirror.

    • I appreciate the detailed explanation, think I understand now. I spent the better part of last night reading what I could about shuffle and potential solutions. I had replaced the OEM twin turbo pipe with an alternate Y pipe that is separated further away from the turbo. The current one is from HKS and I had a previous pipe that was separated even further away, both have shuffle. I had heard that a divider can be welded in to the OEM pipe to remove turbulence, and figure that aftermarket pipes that are more separated would achieve the same thing. From what I read, most people with -10 turbos get shuffle due to their size, though it's a bit less common with -5s on a standard RB26. I think Nismoid mentioned somewhere it's because OEM recirculation piping is common in Australia with -5 cars. It seems that the recommendation tends to vary between a few options, which I've ordered in what I think is most feasible for me:  1. Retune the MAP or boost controller to try to eliminate shuffle 2. Install OEM recirculation piping 3. Something called a 'balance pipe' welded onto the exhaust manifolds. I don't know if kits for this are available, seems like pure fabrication work 4. simply go single turbo My current layout is as follows: Garrett 2860 -5s HKS Racing Suction intake MAF delete pipes HKS racing chamber intake piping hard intercooler piping,  ARC intercooler HKS SSQV BOV and pipe Haltech 2500 elite ECU and boost solenoid/controller HPI dump pipes OEM exhaust manifolds HKS VCAM step 1 and supporting head modifications Built 2.6 bottom end All OEM recirculation piping was removed, relevant areas sealed off I'll keep an eye out for any alternative solutions but can get started with this.  Only other question is, does shuffle harm the turbo (or anything else)? It seems like some people say your turbo shafts will explode because of the opposing forces after a while and others say they just live with it and adjust their pedal foot accordingly. 
    • That worked out PERFECTLY! Thank you big time to JJ. He was able to swap me his stock diff. He drove all the way to me as well. Killer! Removal & install was pretty straightforward. The diff itself is HEAVY. So that’s a 2 man job.  Man does the car drive nice now! Couldn’t have worked out any better 👌
