agreed. If someone simply does not look , then no amount of vis or careful driving means a damn.
personally I try not to filter if I can except where I know a car cannot swerve or move , for this very reason.Usually this means in traffic queues at very low speeds or stationary .
my survival technique is never get near a car !..overtake or hang back. Close proximity loses all our speed and acceleration advantages.We become prey to their indecision and stupidity...Cars are our mortal enemy ! :\
I do feel for commuters who probably have to filter come what may ....it is always then just going to be a matter of time b4 an incident will occur IMO.
