Never trust a green light
Never trust an indicator
Assume that they haven't seen you
That car WILL pull out
Any others ?
Also I like to find a quieter roundabout that is safe to practice going faster and faster and lower and lower and find that when its needed I have the confidence of knowing the bike can go low on that "overcooked bend" its only good enough for right handers you might say but don't forget that the roundabout will always have a left hander exit where you can practice lefts the same.
Just seen that copper picture :rollin it looks like hes doing a frank spencer "ooooh"
You talking about green lights, there's a crossroad junction not far from my work that i normally filter to the front of, and the record i've counted so far is seven cars jumping the red light.
I see six quite often, and i'm talking about full on red lights, not amber, before i start counting.
So yes, don't trust a green light at all, you still need to look everywhere at any junction because there are plenty of careless arseholes out there that can really spoil your day!
