20% eyes on the drivers face, which is quite useless really as they control a car with their feet, but 80% eyes on the wheels, they never lie.
Had a similar thing years back outside Kew Gardens on the way to a film set, headlight on, hi vis jacket, white crash helmet, and i was watching this womans face as i was at the front of traffic and her window was wound down,and as i got right near her she just blatantly pulled out on me!
After the initial brown trouser moment, the swearing and emergency stop with the engine cutting out, i think my front tyre was inches from her car door. Even she screamed.....eventually.
As i was now practically a few feet away with my heart pounding like i'd just finished a marathon, i asked her "Why did you do that?"
And the simple response was, "I didn't see you." :grumble
