I purchased a bike when I was 18 against the advice of my dad. I had it for several months and enjoyed it until an idiot pulled out in front of me and I almost T-boned him in the door. Luckily I was able to avoid wrecking but decided then and there that with all of the dumb drivers on the road that I didn't need a bike.

Man I’m pretty much looking for eye contact and no wheel movement at all before I even let off the clutch when approaching someone stopped - people either don’t see me or try to rush in front of me. As long as I know it’s coming ajd have a plan it’s usually all in slo mo but you can’t always be in such an advantageous spot
Some people are just idiots. A month or so ago I had a log truck pull smack out in front of me while I was pulling my 32ft long camper. He went literally 200 feet and turned on his turn signal to turn left into a gas station. If I hadn't started slowing down just in case he did pull out I would have not been able to stop and rear ended his log truck. In cases like that I understand some of these road rage videos you see.
