  • The wise man would argue that you should have seen him and anticipated that he would pull out and formulated a strategy to deal with that eventuality.
    As a motorcyclist it becomes second nature to assume that everyone else on the road is an idiot and that if they can do something stupid, its odds-on that they probably will....

    Yes anticipating the worst is a good idea. But if you fully play this out you end up with a stale mate at every junction because you are prepared for if you move forward an inch so may the other vehicle and you have an accident. We have a highway code which would say there is a major road and a minor road in this situation and the major road has right of way. So whatever way you look at it in this situation the person unreasonably pulling out is at fault not the person diong the hitting, so the wise man statement is shit!
