    I didn't think i would ever say this to a scooter lol but slow down brah! If you dont got time to react coming into an intersection you are going to fast.......ahahahah sorry but your up shit creek and you aint got a paddle.....
    I do love however at the eagerness of those who told him to get off the road. Like when they were young they never ever ever came into an intersection too hot because at birth they were the best most adherent road users of all time.

    Dont listen to all the crap advice on here, get a bigger bike, and make sure your always going so fast through roundabouts that no one can touch you. You were in the right, ya should of smacked the bitch in the face.





















    For a man is a slave to whatever has mastered him. Keep an open mind, just dont let your brains fall out.

    but thank you for your opinion.
    Visibillty approaching round-a-bouts is always unimpeded, because of where they are situated (in the middle of an intersection)
    You give way to all traffic coming at you from your right, you should have that well sorted before entering a round-a-bout.
    Your fault, no biggie.

    Actually, there is not a lot wrong with this advice! lol

    As your speed increases, you get to the point where relative time slows and for most purposes the traffic moves so slow as to be considered stationary. However, for this you need skill, balls, boogie, and sticky tires, and a powerful intuition, and you had better be right - every time.
    "I am a licenced motorcycle instructor, I agree with dangerousbastard, no point in repeating what he said."
    "read what Steve says. He's right."
    "What Steve said pretty much summed it up."
    "I did axactly as you said and it worked...!!"
    "Wow, Great advise there DB."

    if you get to 88mph time starts to go backwards so if you stuff it up, you get a 2nd chance.
