I was returning home on the M25 which was almost at a standstill (as per usual on a Sunday evening !!) and I always ride with my beam on when filtering to try and make car drivers aware.......
then another biker came up behind me saw him instantly as he had his hazard flashers on, and I thought wow thats a great idea......he was spotted straight away some distance behind me.
Thought it was much safer so I stuck mine on too, and I'm sure more car drivers moved out of the way, as they could SEE me !!!
Now I feel that doing that isn't strictly legal as hazards are really only for emergency hard shoulder usage.
Your thoughts please.................................................
