Yes there is... it's called FOLLOWING DISTANCE... AND LANE POSITION. had he had both... he would have given the POS behind him time to take his eyes off the texts.. and given him a escape route as a last resort


The thing I see... is Yes it sucks that you have No insurance/license drivers out there... but it's OUR responsibility to mitigate as many issues as we can by riding INTELLIGENTLY. Like OSP's example... we can't eliminate it... but we can reduce the incidences by controlling what situations we put ourselves in.

This was a large reason I gave up my sport bike... it just asked to be pushed... putting you in situations you need not be in.
