    Very interesting info but mainly what we already know .Objective being, look out for old arseholes at junctions and you may live to ride another day.

    Agree we know this but hoping the DoT report will make non bikers more aware of this.

    We can all hope and pray anyway. but my main though is; OK they may make hazard based training more wide spread for new drivers but just talking to some non bikers about this. The worry is the older drivers who won't change how they drive. thus still injure and kill bikers due to being daft numpties

    Sit em on a scrapper, or a Suzuki, and then run run em into one of those crash test concrete blocks with "Sorry Mate, I Didn't See You" painted on it in big luminous letters and if they survive, point at it and ask them if it makes them feel any f*****g better about what just happened to them.
