Cursed Left Turn

JoshuaTree · 03-08-2009, 03:00 PM

Handlebar mounted trigger for forward facing Claymores.

(Not my idea, per se, but one offered to me by a friend who served a short while in sunny S.E. Asia)...

The fact is... there is NOTHING that you can do to prevent it... as long as people are still allowed to drive and eat, talk on phones, play with the radio, fuck with the GPS, put on makeup, read directions, or stare off at any billion distractions on the road...

All you can do is flood them with info... and even that doesn't do shit.

what I'd LOVE to see... is making it madatory for every person who wants to get a drivers license... to go through the MSF course. give them first hand experience on just how naked you are out there even in full gear.

On your bike... there's not much you can do besides be hyper alert at all times... but fact is... that's impossible... your gonna let your attention slip just for a second... for that bike the goes by the other way, the blond walking down the street in a 3" skirt

, the smell of good BBQ, or just a random thought jumps to the front of your mind.

but you can try to increase your visiability... by bright colored gear, allowing extra following distance, riding in the correct area of the lane, riding with your brights on all the time (I'll take a ticket if it helps keep me from being a hood ornament) or giving a little twitch of the handle bars to move you and your lights to help keep you from blending in with your back ground.

unfortunately, this is very well said and very true.

modulating headlights
bright clothing
flashing hi beams
moving in the lane, so your headlights draw attention
covering the brakes
assume they are going to turn

There is a solution. And maybe if the fine ladies of this forum start out then it will spread like wildfire. Just don't forget a camera.
