Default Re: The Crash Detectives - a sobering story

On a personal note, I had a similar incident thankfully at a lot lower speeds.

I did a fruity overtake on someone and clearly made them jump, he caught me up and started hurling abuse. I ignored him (as I always do), which resulted in him overtaking me and then slamming brakes on, all I could do was change lanes and boot it to get away.

It was terrifying, I have an irate driver with a weapon, who appeared happy to use it. With no way of defending myself, the only choice was to use the power of the bike and get away.

Sadly on a rainy dark motorway with a CB500 I doubt he had the same luxury.......
