    Heh, yeah - I'm generally wary about all cagers in general. I took the time to devote more "brain slices" to observing their behaviour...and bingo...they did exactly that!

    The worst one was when I was going to turn into 'Treads in Barry Pts road and a cager is looking to his right to pull out...he looks left...and I'm there waiting to turn in...he looks ahead sees me and acknowledges I'm there ...and a split nano-second forgets about me and as I turn in, he begins to take off! I would have do some other actions, but since it was my first time to 'Treads and the uphill gradient had me otherwise occupied!

    Next time, I will wait for plonkers to do their mad things first - but then I'll have to watch out for plonkers from behind!

    I almost owned the side of a sub 60 van who decided to pull into (sitting across) the 2 southbound lanes to wait for a break in the traffic in the northbound lane on old hutt road. Problem was he did it infront of my while I was doing about 80 (my headlights on full beam, bright gear on). Got on the brakes HARD, I was able to stop in time, but it was a close thing. I didnt think I was going to get it stopped in time and ended up with my back wheel in the air when I was about 2 m away from him

    His rego is ATS994, talked to sub 60 but you know they will do SFA
