Re: Emergency Stop(ie)!
cyclists can basically do whatever they want as they have no licence to endorse or insurance to claim from.

Re: Emergency Stop(ie)!
True, but they can get a fine and court appearence from old bill if they get caught (or so the grumpy copper who stopped me said - think he was having a slow day ). I meant they are correct to pass on that side where as a motorcycle shouldn't pass on the left really.

Re: Emergency Stop(pie)!
I'm still in need of that rear left hand side panel in red for a curvy if anyone has one? Sorry for the bump.

Re: Emergency Stop(pie)!
Only just seen and read this thread - thought I'd add my opinion to the matter!
A couple of years ago I was in the cage with the wife, her driving - we were waiting to pull out of a car park on a business park type place and we were going to pull in to the car park 50 yards down the road, (ie, left, then left again not far down the road). A scooter waved us out and we started down the road, still indicating left and I told the Mrs to look out for him, sure enough as we were about to turn left in to the car park he comes shooting up the inside of us and she had to brake sharply to let him get past before making the turn. No harm done but I was of the opinion that had we knocked him off it would have been completely his fault. We were indicating left, presumably he thought we just hadn't cancelled it from when we pulled out before but if you make that assumption you're asking for it. Different scenario from the one described in this thread but I'm making the point that it's not always the car drivers fault and we all need to take extreme care when filtering, particularly down the left hand side close to the kerb. Glad you were ok though Mitchbligh, Cheers, Matt |
