Luck, probably!
If you look through the history of motorcycle accidents on this site alone you can find the vast majority of them could have been prevented with better riding and observation.
A good example are the ones who do 40 mph on a roundabout cranked over and hit diesel then immediately look for compo. It's a blame culture we live in.
I will hold my hands up and apologise for derailing the thread and possibly insulting and controversial comments.
However I will say that improving road safety is passion of mine and if we've all learned something from this thread then it's been worthwile. If it stops someone crashing into a car door again then we've done our duty.
Peace out.
