Of course the "sheep" not right. If this video is accepted by court or the police is willing to take this as investigation evidence, then the car driver has higher chance to win. Otherwise, it will be just "mouth" argue with "nose".

1. The car driver hit from the back, he is in disadvantage
2. When he hit the "sheep", the "sheep" is already in the middle of the fast lane. So as the police point of view, the cause of the accident "seems" to be the car did not allow reasonable distance with the front sheep and hit it from the back
3. No evidence can point out that the sheep sudden cut to the fast lane unless police accept the video. The "sheep" driver can said he is driving in the fast lane all the way and sudden hit by the car
4. If I were the car driver, I will use my right to keep silence during the police investigation which will have higher chance to win

Better do the tire balancing if the wheel is tight enough.

ricky san, you asking me?

I did not do it last night because after it was too late last night and I want AK to take rest.

But my gear box draw me more attention because I always feel that the gear 1 to gear 2 is not smooth. Sometimes very "chok" from gear 1 to 2 or 2 to 3 and vice verse; especially in upward slope the gear box should change in 2 -3, 3-2. But the "chok" feeling is not happening in high gear ratio.

I don know u or other buddies have the same problem too
