Watch the Cars WHEELS

[rocketman1]

One piece of advice I give my children is:

Watch the cars wheels

A car cannot turn in front of you, do a U turn, cross in front of you without its wheels turning and rotating.
Wheels are the FIRST sign of trouble happening and are easier to spot that a car actually moving.

While riding your bike

1) If you see the wheels rotate on car waiting at an intersection, get ready to brake.

2) If you see the front wheels turn, on a car waiting to cross your path, get ready for action

3) If a car is parked on your side of the road, its brake lights are on, watch the front wheels it cannot do a U turn without its front wheels turning.

Of course these are rules that apply while driving your car and bicycle too.

Hope it saves some ones R's someday.

that is good advice.dont fixate on them tho,there is potential for other stuff at intersections too

The ones I am terrified of are the ones whose heads are down fixated on their laps. Because anti-social media is far more important than the poor sad schmuck on the motorbike or pushbike. Mostly it is young people.

If you see a car stop on the side of the road for no apparent reason and their brake lights stay on, they just might be about to U-turn. I had a very scary near miss last year - no indicator, didn't turn their head, just U-turned right in front of me.

not here seems to be many ages. At the lights close to my place it's rare to see someone not on their phone, we had a fatal here where someone was on the motorway with a red right turn,stopped but on their phone, they got tooted at behind, thought the toot was for them to go looked up saw green light (ahead) and turned despite a red, into 100kmh motorway traffic. Distracted and in that case lethal
