Public enemy no 1
Public enemy no 1
Historically the motorcycles mortal enemy has always been typified as the devil in beige who drives a Volvo (or OVLOV as Bike used to call it to avoid legal attention!).
Do you reckon Volvo drivers still deserve the title or has Beelzebub chosen a new chariot to wage war on the good folk on 2 wheels?
White van man? Audi drivers?
What do you think chaps? My money's on BTT being first up in defence of Audi's as he seems to own most of those registered on the UKs roads! Lloydie close behind (not for the first time!) defending wvm!

Re: Public enemy no 1
There's a new threat out there, perhaps most closely associated with the Streets of London, and that is the Smart car driver. They seem to target bikers based on the fact that they are in a small vehicle and are therefore not subject to road traffic laws. Their supporting act is the beige Fiat 500, driven by people who think it's kitsch to drive a car the same colour as a hearing aid (I'm right aren't I Kev? They are that colour I'm sure).

BMW Drivers...I think BMW stands for...Indicators Who Needs Them...
Having said that I was lucky enough to be right behind a Police car on me way home last night...He suddenly slowed down no braking, indicated left for a brief moment then made his mind up braked, indicated right & turned right...Fek knows what he was up to but it wasn't taking other road users into consideration. Fortunatly I was paying attention for a change...

I am detecting a certain amount of ageism from certain parties recently, if this continues I will be forced to exact an almighty and righteous retribution against the instigators of such, and give them a right nasty chinese burn or deadleg! Git.

In my part of the world, white Range Rovers top the list of people regularly trying to reduce my life expectancy.

Re: Public enemy no 1
I went to see Ed Byrne recently, funny as feck as always, and he was talking about driving quality. He asked who in the audience drove an Audi and a few of the audience cheered. His comment was " well that's ironic, because by doing that you've given an indication, so why the f*ck can't you do it in your car?"

In your part of the world range rovers end up in Epping with additional ventilation, along with their occupants!

Young(ish) women (25 to 40) in large 4x4s. Some of them need a good dose of correction, quite a few of them look like they would enjoy that too!

From what I see down here in Cornwall, BMW drivers are not on their own when it comes to not using indicators, it can be any make car.MacV2 wrote:BMW Drivers...I think BMW stands for...Indicators Who Needs Them...
I've sort of got a bit used to this now, as it's been going on for so long. I'm more concerned about these so called drivers who keep looking down to text on their mobile phones as they're driving. To me they are an even bigger danger to other road users because they are taking their eyes off the road
