Likwid Posted July 21, 2009 Report Share Posted July 21, 2009 So I wanted to post this separately because there are not nearly enough "good cager" threads.2 lane road (highway merging off, 1 lane is closed for construction right now)... going under a bridge. So lots going on. Well I turn left, then as soon as the cones end swerve right and get ready to get on it. See the Trailblazer that I just was behind turn on her right turn signal, so of course I think "I better stop because no way she's going to see me"Much to my surprise, she braked, looked over, saw me and was going to let me go by. I was already slowed so I just let her over... but I was pleasantly surprised that someone noticed me Anyway, ride on folks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryan_c_F Posted July 22, 2009 Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 If it was an Expedition, she would have waved you over and then merged when it was too late for you to evade.I've seen so man dumb Expedition drivers that I'm convinced there's a license that Ford sells with the purchase of a new one - "Be a dick and get away with it until this time next year."

ReconRat Posted July 22, 2009 Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 People that use turn signals and/or actually see a motorcycle around them, should be rewarded. Let them change lanes. Reinforce the positive behavior. Then they can tell all their friends about that nice motorcycle rider... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikera67 Posted July 22, 2009 Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 I had two semi's on I-70 on the east side flash the lights AND wave me me in to the exit to 270 north, this was after a line of cagers tighten up their formation as to make me miss the exit(won't happen), made damn sure the trucks knew I was grateful.Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uncle Punk Posted July 22, 2009 Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 That what you get when the cars around you hang up and drive. Something that comes close to normal driving. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buildit Posted July 22, 2009 Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 Same rules should apply for driving any vehicle. Be polite, look for signals, use your signals, never assume they see you! I think the OP and SUV driver reacted very well to this situation.A hint on lane changes on the highway. When preparing for a lane change, after turning on your signal on do a "head check" to the side your turning. This is a physical action that really catches the attention of drivers as to your intention to change lanes and gives you a chance to check that blind spot!

RC51 John Posted July 22, 2009 Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 It's nice to know there are actually people in cars. Most seem to be on autopilot.I often wave a car into a lane or wave them by when it seems they are waiting for me to change lanes in front of them.
