I wasn't aware that a looming situation could be identified by watching the background behind the car. It makes sense.

Good info. Might need to go practise it right now =D

Good find.

So I also get that if you're a big bastard on a bigger bike, it might help. Cool!

watch out in texas, their cars and people are still 5 times the size of you so you better be SIAM-ing all the way through the US

Cool vid!

Know I understand why I don't get SMIDSYed at intersections.

I've been in the habit of SIAMing almost since day one without realising it. I don't know why I started doing it but I instictively weave past any intersection where somenoe could concievably pull out on me.
