So today I realised why shoulder checks are needed…..[
]40mph dual carrige way… saw insttructor up ahead in right hand lane I was in the left I think “okay time to move over”
*inside levi’s head*
“Mirror, indicate, moving slightly… oh wait shoulder check *looks right*
bloody hell… how did that van get there?” [][][][]
He wasn;t very happy and now I feel like a f**king moron []That’s the only thing that’s making me feel.. ‘better’ if you know what I mean?
I feel really crap about it though… angry with myself because I didn’t even need to move over!!Made me think though, the driver started yelling at me… he obviously wasn’t watching me, if he was he would have seen me indicate and should have been prepared for me moving over, no?
At least you’ve learnt from a simple mistake without any pain! Wouldnt it be nice if the pr*cks in their cars would learn so quickly!
Oh I won’t be so hasty next time! Life savers every time BEFORE I MOVE, if there’s a cage in the way I’m going to drop in behind them if I can… last thing I need is what that prick did I accelerated to get into the gap between him and the cage in front and he starts to accelerate!!
There was only enough space for a bike and a 3ft barrier between the front and back of the bike, so it is BEYOND me why he started to put the gas on!
We came across white Van Man on Tuesday![
!] We were queuing at a junction when white van man decides to back up, Dave was backing up as fast as he could but not fast enough The bumper on the van had trapped Daves front wheel[!] And Dave was struggling to hold the bike up, I lept off the back and banged on drivers window and a whole mouthful of obsenities I threw at him as well as what the F@*k do ya think yer doin, bloke pulled forward, and jumped out the van and couldnt apologies enough! lucky there was no damage[
