I disagree, never had to on the bike, but I have avoided more than one car accident by doing exactly what you would not think is the right thing. AKA accelerating into a stopped car to shoot the gap.

I was taught loooong ago: With your hands on the bars; push left, lean left, go left! Push right, lean right, go right!
Those words still ring true. That, and I ride like everyone's trying to run me over...including local wildlife. Yet another reason "Loud pipes save lives!"....within reason.
Thanks for the vid Gary!
