I laugh when I see folks do that. Red light I let up on the gas and coast. Pizzes lots of drivers off.
I gave up on that after having one turn out while making eye contact with me. Now I watch the wheels of their vehicles for any movement, always assuming they don't acknowledge me. I just had it happen while in my truck a couple weeks ago...at night.
Sold my bike over a decade ago after 3 close calls of people not paying attention in a couple weeks. It’s just not worth it. The job I have now puts me on the interstate with a lane closed and nothing more than a few cones separating me from traffic. It’s somewhat terrifying. After dark is the worst. The things I have seen people doing while operating a 3000lb missile is mind boggling.
X2...not on the interstate, but the rest of it, X2! Have had more than one person come through road barricades too...one a few years ago hit a backhoe, and then tried to sue! Even though Ohio has a hands free law now, you still see people texting, regularly!
lol, texting is the lest of it. Driving a triaxle you get a good view into the car beside you. It’s a family friendly site I’ll leave it there.
The road I live on is a shortcut connecting 2 main roads. It's amazing the number of people I see texting, talking with handheld devices, and drinking (you can tell) all while flying down a 35 mph road.
A farmer uses this road for hauling silage from the fields. His drivers are frequently texting. Hasn't happened yet but big a one waiting to happen.
