saterday after doing practical
sort of ontopic. do they insist on all this obsessive "lifesaver" looking. i found that REALLY annoying on my cbt- nearly got rsi lol - i only do it if i need to at a round about or something - it is so unnecessary in the country at T junctions for example....
Yep they do insist on it.Originally Posted by Charles

well obviously you have to do the life saver, i only do them on the road at roundabouts though never see the need to do any more, other than pulling away fromt eh side of the road

And rightly so. The name is justified IMO.Originally Posted by priller
Today when people talk of "living through hell", it usually means that their appeal against unfair dismissal has been delayed, or the builders next door have been very noisy for several weeks. For the millions of soldiers in the trenches of the First World War, their experiences of Hell on Earth were beyond anything those of us born into Britain's most blessed generation can possibly imagine.
especially on dual carraigeways and in town, saved my life a few times doing a last second lifesaver
i was thinking dual carriageways/(motorways) too....Originally Posted by Rejimbo
whatever checks you do on the test, just exagerate them so its obvious the instructor can see you doing them, a quick glance and he might miss it and think youve not done it, make it really obvious

Quote of the month from Vickers 'so shove it up your gold plated welly-ended fadge and have an orgasm over it'
You need to do it every time you make a major change of direction. I used to laugh at the idea of a left lifesaver on making a left turn - nothing can ever be inside you - can it? But I've seen one guy hit by a kamikazi cyclist and two accidents with pedestrians, plus several cases where people riding with mates have found their mates coming up on the inside.Originally Posted by Charles
On motorways, the number of times a lifesaver has stopped me from changing lanes because I saw something almost alongside isn't worth counting - 2 or 3 times a day at least.
Slighty off topic - even I can get caught out. I was knocked off my bike last week by a pedestrian. I was filtering up the outside of two lanes of stationary traffic when a muslim terrorist (possibly) just ran out from between the cars, trying to cross the road. I was just about stationary myself, but he slammed into the front of the bike - handlebar and front wheel - hard enough to actually knock it over before I could get a foot down to hold it.
He should have looked before leaping out, but I should have been aware of the possibilty and been looking over the cars for a bobbing head.

I think the lifesaver is the only thing useful i took away from my CBT and i do use it quite often.Originally Posted by williamr
And Rob the muslim thing made me laugh but next time i think you should try harder![]()
