Cars cutting corners

[Greyham]

dont you just hate it when cars cut corners when your coming around the bend missing you by inches?
I dont know about everyone else but it makes me so angry and scared at the same time that i just want to hit something.

[NighthawkNZ:Me]

I see a hell of a lot of bikers cut corners (and on blind corners) as well so its not just cages

Don't hit the car - that would hurt, a lot.

Real men knock them off with their fist ... try it...

There seems to be a lot of 'I hate this - I hate that"... why don't we all just get along and talk about the beautiful weather that we had today! Apart from the downpour just outside of Hamilton. bleh.

By the way, every missile needs a target, and to cars, you're that target, and they're the fucking missile.

bikers who cut corners are dumber then stupid, but to those who do not i guess some broken car mirrors cant go amiss

so if somebody is dumber than stupid, how stupid is dumb then? dumb question.

[Greyham]

dumber then stupid is having a bulls eye painted on your head, very stupid question

Anyone actually thought about riding Defensively? That is, always expect the unexpected and be prepared for it, cause it probably will, and does happen. Could just save your own neck one day.
Never mind what the other idiots on the road are doing, just concentrate on your own ride.
You will have less stress in your life if you do this and you may even survive to reach a ripe old age and then you can complain all you like to the retirement home supervisor about the driving standards of the other mobility scooter operators in the corridoors and on the footpaths. Your dementure or alzheimers will give you this right.

fair enough but what about when you are concentrating on your ride even taking it easy and you nearly get taken out? who's at fault you for taking it easy or the ass hole you nearly ended your ride and maybe even your life?

Unfortunately, that comes under the heading of 'Fate" Can happen to anyone at any time and due to circumstances outside of your control or observation. Just damn bad luck if it does, but there is still no substitute for riding or driving defensively and it has saved my butt more than twice in over forty years of motorcycling.
I used to get wound up by the dickheads and their driving/riding habits once upon a time too but soon came to realise that the only person this was affecting was me. They did'nt give a shit and half the time did'nt even realise their actions. So it was then i adopted the "mind my own ride" and it really does make a difference.
Worth a thought maybe??

If no "accident" occurs, there is no fault. Expect people cutting corners...you'll live longer.

Which is why I late apex the corner.....
IMHO, it is 4WD that most often cut corners...usually driven by women too, I might add
