First time I've seen this show. Mostly NZ content.... Crikey I thought we had to put up with alot of shit as bikers. Fuck being a truck driver in this country ! The stupidity of some NZ drivers is astounding.

Yeah, but it worries me more if they had car-cam and it showed footage of motorcycles doing daft passing etc!

That was my worry too.... Didnt see any of that, yet (knock on wood)Originally Posted by AllanB
Got to wonder how much mileage they can get out of truck cam. Seems pretty extraordinary the risks some people are prepared to take.

It's quite clearly the trucks' fault that cars don't see them.
As the onus seems to be on those being hit to invest in safety equipment, maybe the transport lobby group could investigate the validity of hi visibility options for trucks and drivers.
Don't forget to bring a towel
At least the truck driver usually comes out better off.

LOL, that's what I thought last night, SMIDSY. FFS it's a Scania!!

They need to paint trucks in Hi Vis.
The instructions are simple...
Novel idea...
Anyone that's ever been pinged (or hit) because they failed to give way, must install some sort of visible, visual aid (like a big neon sign, saying RETARD) on their vehicle.
Then the rest of us, who are looking, will have more warning and won't get caught out by these dipshits.
Do you realise how many holes there could be if people would just take the time to take the dirt out of them?

Imagine what is going to be like after the 25th of March....
I've spent my money on bikes, booze and babes. The rest I've wasted....

I expect it will be a little like 33 (?) years ago when the rule was last changed.
Some of us - like me f'rinstance - have never trusted the current rule. I never expect the left turning car to stop for me and I still acknowledge those who do stop with a lift of the hand. So I hope it will be easy to revert to the original training. I hope...

+1 As long as I have lived here behaviour at junctions has been a lottery so I just wait until I know whats happening.I expect it will be a little like 33 (?) years ago when the rule was last changed.
