Up The Junction

Junctions…

Why oh why do some of us still run that risk of overtaking at the mouths of junctions?

Your only going to make up a few seconds of your journey yet the risk involved is quite scary.

You only overtake if it is clear to do so, if you can’t see then you can’t overtake.

Collision I witnessed was so simple to avoid…the warning signs were there…a slow moving vehicle..is he looking for a house? a turning? alarm bells should be sounding….and the junction…even if the car did not intend to turn what if a car was coming OUT of the junction….when turning left how often do car drivers look left? they don’t really and they certainly won’t be expecting to be met head on by a bike.

so the simple way to avoid such collisions is DON’T OVERTAKE ON JUNCTIONS.

a little patience goes a long way!
