Since the last accident

I have made doubly sure - full working lights front and back (nearlyGBP30 by the way) - helmet and enough flourescent s**te to make me look like the jolly green f**king giant going to a nu rave gig

still last week going round a roundabout guy doesn't stop coming in front of me - as I yank on the brakes in the middle of two lanes of trafic I could literally reach out and touch the side of his car.

and then he gives me the finger and leans on his horn as if I had done something wrong - six feet futher and I would have been dead.

Always assume the drivers are going to the stupidest thing possible - then you will only be pleasently surprised and not dead
