Have you ever drove out on a motorbike?

    Doing some research into what causes right of way violations that kill & injure motorcyclists.
    Have you ever "pulled out" on a bike?
    If so, what do you think caused it? (e.g. distracted, on the phone, looked but didnt see, falling asleep (lol), or any other reason)

    Honest answers appreciated. Thanks

    There's a forum for your research. You may want to speak to the mods before continuing this thread dude.

    No I never have pulled out on a motorcyclist.

    Re "Doing some research into what causes right of way violations that kill & injure motorcyclists."

    Every (well most, I don't work in the same spot all the time) morning on the way to work I travel on a road with a continuous white line on my side (in the overtaking lane) and a broken one on the other, the other side is practically bumper to bumper, my side would be free flowing, two lanes on my side, one an overtaking lane, 100kph zone, motorcyclists coming the other way don't seem to understand the theory about the broken line, if a car is in the opposite lane than it's not safe to cross it, they seem to almost try and filter through traffic coming against them at speed, lunacy. I presume it's the same couple of numpties every morning.

    Not so far *touch wood*.

    Been in one self-caused accident when I slid into a parked car in the snow a few years back.

    Honda Civic bumpers are bloody expensive.
