I think you're right about the truck swerving to miss the pickup but the cross traffic was moving in both directions so I think the truck was probably meant to stop at the junction. He seems to have been going a bit quick too.
Hey Guys,
The new charger showed no faults in the battery.
Doing a wee contra with a mechanic and he's away with the bike and will check that when sorting a few other wee things.
Be back on 2 wheel shortly my fat lazy ass does not like this walking nonsense.
Thanks for the advice.
