I've put my 2010 250 and zx10 down once each. The 250 was in 2012. At a 4 way traffic light in the left turn lane. Got a green turn arrow and started going when a truck on the opposite side made a right into the same lane there was a concrete divide so I couldn't go any more to the left so I slammed on the brakes n locked up the rear and played it down. Truck kept going. A person in a car behind me followed the truck and got a picture of his plates and came back to me. Driver was uninsured.
On the ZX10 I was merging left into carpool lane behind a truck when I noticed a prius cutting across 6 lanes of traffic to get into the HOV lane. He cut off the truck in front of me who slammed on the brakes along with the vehicles to my right all taking evasive maneuvers. To my left was again a concrete barrier.I once again locked up my rear and laid it down.
I took off my back brakes so I won't ever have that problem again. Just kidding. I have adjusted my braking technique.
