taking the lane
Yesterday on the dual A30 at 70 mph I encountered a cycle in the centre
lane. There was no sign of a rider but there were bits of bike shrapnel spread right across the outer lane. Don't worry it was only a BSO not a real bike, I did not stop because it could not have been a real cyclist involved. In fact nobody was stopping just severe panic braking and lots of swerving around. I managed to avoid it , the Smart was narrow enough to go around but the guy following me was not so lucky, I bet he wished there were some registration plates on the BSO so that he would be able to trace the owners and launch a claim for his vehicles damage. -- ennemm |

Why? He was driving too fast to stop in the distance he could see to be clear. Totally the drivers fault and DWDCAT at least. |

The car it fell off undoubtedly had registration plates. A classic example of a motorist putting lives in danger. |
