even more important on a Moto is to look where you want to go, if not you will at best end up in hospital, at worst, well you know .
Use brain organ for driving the other organ is for pissing and stuff.
If things look tighty go lightly.
49 % idiots 49% arseholes …the 2% who are a bit of both cause 90% of incidents..
I still believe in 10 and 2.
Thank You John. Such good info. for all, I'm 77 and think a lot more about safety when on the bike or in the car. Again Thank You.
I love this. Many times I have been bagged for my cautious driving. So great to be backed up. Thank you.
I've watched a few Auto expert videos now, thanks for all of them by the way. Now having watched this I'm reminded and compelled to regale any who read past this point of a very close call I had a few years back where I made a right hand turn at a T junction, simple enough you'd think, except I saw the top of a small head and pony tail bob for a brief instant between the line of cars waiting to turn onto the road I'd just turned off. As I saw this, I immediately begun braking, being as I wasn't trying to set a new commonwealth or world record for quickest time home from work that day I successfully avoided something that I cringe about every time I think what the alternative situation would have been like. Or that these same words of caution might have been typed retrospectively after having to explain to the various loved ones that girl must have that the Swiss cheese slices just lined up that day and how irrevocably sorry I might have been for the rest of my life. In short heed this man's words!
Great video John. I will keep these steps in mind every time that I am behind the wheel.
Once again, great advice John.
On the topic of space, the recommendation is to drop back from the car in front, but no mention was made as to how far back you should be. What one person might consider to be a safe distance from the car in front, another might not think that is a safe enough enough distance.
Some people say a safe distance from the car in front is x metres, some people say y metres and others might say z metres.
I did a driver training course years ago. The instructor said the safe distance will depend on how fast you are going. He said a simpler way of knowing what is a safe distance is based on time, not distance. He said if there's only one thing you remember from his course, it's the 'three-second rule'. That is, keep at least 3 seconds from the car in front, measured by when that car in front passes a tree, sign or landmark. The faster the car in front is travelling, the longer the gap is. I find that by doing this, I'm hardly using my brakes compared to the cars around me.
