    I have to agree with WR6133.. Before my slip on V&H pipes arrived people would just walk out in front of me..normally texting as they walk..in a world of their own.. Not now.. They hear me coming..or a quick blip of the throttle gets their attention..also helps when filtering..lol.. Never been stopped for them..on any of my bikes..

    Not really.
    I started this thread to highlight the bad attitude of some bikers.

    There are many threads regarding poor driving.
    Sometimes we need to look at what we can do to reduce the risks.
    Not riding at night without a headlight is a good start.

    Sorry Wiltshire builders.. A few of us seem to have drifted off track.. I should say that at the time of the roundabout incident I was in black leathers on a black bike with three large lights on.. The fact that the driver was looking at me and smiling at the time.. She was even pointing me out to her children.. meant that even in day glow she would still have pulled out..

    I'd love to say I'm shocked, but it happens far too often.
    Glad it didn't end badly for you.

    Cheers WB...
    to get us back on track I was in the queue of traffic at the in the roadworks near B&Q this evening.. Pouring with rain.. Dark and a youth on an old 125 came past on my inside....I was in the outside lane.. Filtering..no lights on!!! My mirrors were useless because of the rain..and cars were swooping from the inside to the outside lane just to make a few yards progress..another one not helping themselves..
