New Police road campaign

That's not the worst of it, he clearly was propelled through the firewall and had his chin in the brake fluid, and the power steering res upended on his head.

No, I think that's what happens when you get drunk and fuck a My Little Pony, up the Arse.

I was hit by a u turning driver myself and some on here said I would not have been hit if I had anticipation skills which another poster on here is trotting out to mean mind reading ability of other drivers who he has claimed 90% of motorcyclists have and over 50% of car drivers have.

A car cannot perform a U-turn without giving away clues.

You clearly weren't paying attention.

[dangerous]

farks wrong with the cop... they could have easly U turned and made it through that kids ear lobe with out crashing... shits with that self mutalation crap any way

Tadvocates laxity, inattention, and a dumbing down of skill to the bare ability to control machinery all the while adhering to a set of rules that assumes that everyone is traveling at speeds less than that which will cause injury.

Dude, harsh. Thats always worked for *crash* me...

That's a shame.

I think it was a Marlborough cop that killed 1 or 2 motorcyclists by U turning some years back. If the car driver had had "anticipation skills" like some on here he would not have got hit.

No. Wrong again.
The cop did not kill the two riders but certainly put them in hospital with very serious injuries.
He pulled a U-turn in a gorge which said manoeuvre could never happen. A three point turn was the only thing possible in that space.

. I was hit by a u turning driver myself .

Can't blame him......
Was probably not an accident...
just somebody who knew you and your charming ways....?

No surprises there. That was a bunch of Asian drivers. Shit they really are useless at basic car control.

So the white car starts to move right towards the camera car's lane by a metre or so, didn't even get to cross the lane markings, no impact, no need for major panic stations. But no, alas, the camera car driver demonstrates their piss poor car control and over reacts, slams into the railing and then half the other cars on the bridge! He was probably driving to the airport to fly to NZ and rent a camper van so he can swerve out of control all over our roads

Don't worry, they are emos. They will kill themselves eventually.

I honestly think you should give up riding if you spend your whole time seeking out and anticipating real or imagined crashes as riding can not be much fun with your mind focussed on potential crashes all the time. That's very brave of you to offer assistance to cops if you think they might get attacked by angry motorists. Keep in mind though if they attacked the cop they would likely also attack you. I guess in comparison to you I have a positive attitude when I ride and for some weird reason you think that is not being in control. If there is any particular group of motorcyclists that I feel you should be concerned about its the multivehicle overtaking (under pressure) group riders and if you have never seen any you need to come down to ChCh and ride the ChCh to Akaroa Rd any Saturday or Sunday. That's what I call dangerous riding and I have actually seen it unlike your dreamt up perception of my riding ability.

And this is where the troll crosses the line. I'm glad people are still responding to you, your attempts to teach other people bad riding techniques just to get a reaction are absolutely despicable; but at least others here care enough about safer riding techniques to keep correcting you.

And there you have it. Advice from someone who rides around (allegedly) in a world of their own who relies on everyone else to do the right thing and who has no concept whatsoever of defensive riding.

You're a fucking retard.

I've highlighted in bold the bit where you fail. Yes, to start with your mind is occupied with crash avoidance. After a while it becomes second nature and you conscious mind is once again free to enjoy the journey.

Not doing this is simply a riskier way to ride. Whether that risk is acceptable is up to the individual.
