Also, not wanting to fuel the brakeless/braked debate, but I had a 4x4 turn right across me last year. No indicating, or tell tale slowing down and moving across the lane. They just TURNED and were suddenly about to run me over. I was doing about 25mph and had a brake, and it saved me from having a very bad day. No amount of 'skill' or reading the road could have seen it coming.
Turns out it was a women, in a Range Rover, on her phone, with kids in the back. How stereotypical.
