Food for thought:

In whatever vehicle you choose to use, you're waiting to turn right so you look for a gap. You see one. You look at the vehicle coming head on, who's a good enough distance away for you to make it through.

How easy or hard is it to tell that he's over 1 1/2 times the speed limit and therefore only going to take 2/3 the time to get to you?

If you haven't spotted the rider in the first place very difficult. I remember reading these 2 threads and the associated imformative article and video.
