sudbury motorcycle accident


Left, Left, Left, Left, Left, Left turners!! They are the bane of motorcycle riders! They make up the vast majority of car/bike collisions. The season is just starting up, folks. Shake off the rust, and get your head into biker mode!

Rule #1: NO cagers see you!! You are invisible to them! So, ride as if you were indeed invisible!

Rule #2: When safety permits, allow any left turners to make their turn ahead of you, thus eliminating any possibility of crashing. If there's even one tiny speck of doubt in your mind as to whether the cager sees you, or is hesitating/not sure if they should proceed, or even gives a fuck, then let them go first! (keep an eye in your rearview as well!)

Rule #3: Return home unscathed!!

Yup... There's a fine line between being safe and being too cautious. Stopping short to let someone go and getting rear-ended by an F-350 is pretty bad for business too.
