Posted October 16, 20159 yr Narrowly avoided being taken out by a Audi TT doing an unannounced U turn from the kerb on my way home tonight. I was gratified to see he had a 'Think Bike' sticker on the car. Plonk
October 17, 20159 yr Author Achhh you should have seen his indicator though! No indication. It was lights on and straight into a U turn from being parked at the kerb. Nevermind, I'm sure somebody somewhere had a far worse outcome on their ride home yesterday.

Nevermind, I'm sure somebody somewhere had a far worse outcome on their ride home yesterday. I kinda knew there wasn't when I wrote that, it seems like a good proportion of Audis do have them fitted
October 17, 20159 yr Moderator I had a woman just pull up right past the stop line at lights whilst I was walking across, she wasn't even looking forward. probably 2 metres past it. scary stuff

October 19, 20159 yr I know several drivers with those stickers, some who live with bikers or are riders themselves, yet still have made occasional mistakes like forgetting indicators.By all means, kick off the mirror, smash their windscreen, kill them in the face, whatever makes you feel better... so long as you remember to judge yourself just as harshly when *you* fuck up!

English to the core.
