1:33 I failed my test for doing exactly that. I was staying out to get a better view and my examiner failed me for it. He said if an oncoming car takes "the racing line" theres going to be very little margin for error. So i got a majour mark for road positioning which i was realy pissed off about. Plus there was thick clumps of mud and shit from a tractor & trailor or something all up the middle of the road which i had to avoid... But whatever passed 2nd time without a single fault lol

i passed my tast in 1980 the examiner used to wait on the corner of a junction and tell you if you had passed or failed i still ride now. I have lost friends also i like to think what has kept me alive so far is treat everyone else as an idiot . I know there not but you will always find one when you least expect it or need it . riding as in driving is common sense and observation. RIDE SAFE GUYS

i thought it was fine - if the ar driver doesnt see the bike (or look for the bike-as often happens) coming through in his OS mirror then thats up to him. they should anticipate a hazard coming from behind them too

i have all your replies in my personal mailbox. you've been having a go at me for the last 6 months.
to be honest you're the most pathetic guy here.
you give me shit about replying to your comments 'some months later'. yet you reply to my comments instantly.

I see why you failed, you tried to ride the practical way and not as the DSA want you to ride, so that you pass the 'test' Now you have passed you can start riding properly - Good Luck, I am only an e-mail away if you need any help, advice etc...
I'm not impressed by the overtake of the last car before the trailer in the first minute - rider cuts in to the car's braking zone & then sits too close to the trailer. I make that two serious errors, completely avoidable.
