    If I had a dollar for every time a biker grizzled about another motorist....

    It should be NO surprise by now that the average skill level of drivers in NZ is utterly rubbish. Most are either over-confident and arrogant, self-righteous or just plain hopeless, selfish or stupid.

    Ride defensively, anticipate things that may go wrong around you and don't assume anything from another road user.

    A girlfriend once asked " Why is it you seem to prefer to race, than spend time with me ?"
    The answer was simple ! "I'll prolly get bored with racing too, once i've nailed it !"

    Bowls can wait !

    Poo can get even with you for holding it hostage for too long. Poo is sposed to come out, not sit around in a smelly, dark passageway.

    Poo toxins can be absorbed back into your bloodstream, and affect the brain, making you a shit-for-brains.

    Just imagine how you would like it. Poo has feelings, too. Free your poo - don't hold it in.
    No body move... I dropped my brain

    Yeah its amazing how something happens once it seems to happen in threes. And no matter how defensive you are if the others aren't playing their part they will eventually get you. Also complaining makes other aware of the sorts of prats they have to defend against.

    Bit of common sense goes a long way...

    A recent incident left me convinced I am visible.

    Coming up to a set of traffic lights on a 2-lane road. Just before the lights an extra bypass lane begins on the LH side.
    I spot the traffic light already on red and about 100m away decide to throttle off and coast up towards the light (no need to get there in any great hurry as it's red...).
    A car driver comes up behind me, then pulls left into the bypass lane and undertakes me (fine) and then pulls to the right, and across all the lanes to sit in the right hand lane ready for the light to change (which takes another 20 seconds).
    I simply let that go. The nutters are out there.

    not as common as its name suggests, what makes sense to one doesn't to another. Common sense is based on experience or learning even if the specific lesions can't be recalled.

    I think if all cagers were to spend a week or two riding a motorcycle, they might, and I repeat MIGHT look at their own actions more carefully and appreciate other road users.
