Re: Use of Indicator for Overtaking
For me cancelling it is as pointless as having it on in the first place.
In the quoted text it is being used as "I'm thinking about overtaking "
It's rare that a signal is of benefit to anyone on a single carriageway overtake, other than if you have a pushed vehicle behind.

Re: These shoes are made for walking
Interesting post. My wife, who has no interest in driving/riding always comments when I drive in my walking boots. She doesn't understand how I can feel the pedals through the rugged soles.

Re: I was just following the satnav...
This article has a video that shows the new layout. Madness that no-one thought this was going to cause problems.

Re: Motorcycle videos
Didn't you see me riding recklessly at speed down the wrong side of the road ignoring all those gaps? I do wonder at times if people just comment based on the video thumbnails. The RoADAR page proved they do!

Re: ADAS testing
My take on car tech. My old 'moon bug' shaped Honda Civic that I had for 10 years was an early adopter of EBA (Emergency Brake Assist). It only activated once during my ownership but it was an 'interesting' moment. I was on a straight piece of 40mph dual c/w when a dog ran out of the hedges ahead of...

Re: Lighting...
On a more positive note re lighting, I do get the impression that misuse of rear fog lights, ie lit when they shouldn’t be lit, is on the decline vs 20 years ago? I wonder if that might be an upside of automatic lights, assuming that it never, ever turns on the fogs. Which in my estimation, is abou...
