Unless you practice serpent handling, any type of encounter with a snake can cause otherwise rational people to freak out and panic even if they can easily run away to safety.
Now, try to imagine for a moment being on a motorcycle traveling at around 250km/h (155mph) and a yellow snake jumps out of the protective fairing where it was hiding and lands with its face on your hand; what would you do?
Well, the best thing to do is to take notes from this cool-headed rider, who appears to be from Brazil, and who kept his calm and slowed down in a completely safe manner for himself as well as the other bikers and road users.

Reminds me of Lance Murdock jumping a tank full of sharks and man-eating lions (Bart the Daredevil episode).

Probably crawled into the engine compartment at night to warm up, then as the engine started heating up it was looking to escape the heat.
