Speeding error

[carmanmemoranda]

What you on about.

Some people always know EXACTLY what speed limit they are in

Most people understand there are always times when it's not fully clear, as you said.

I know you don't like me agreeing with you, sorry

 

[motorbiking]

And you say youve never had an issue with a blind spot? Never arrived at an acute angle junction

Keep spouting your bs and showing yourself up

So you are just going to pull out and hope? Thats how people are killed.

So you are just going to pull out and hope? Thats how people are killed.

Again, where has that been said.

You are clueless.

Have you never approached an acute angle junction in a van with a fully loaded trailer? Do you rely on your mirrors if so ?

I think perhaps you mean occasionally there are times.. Nobody is suggesting this isn't true, but the enforceable limit is never in any doubt.

Again, where has that been said.

You are clueless.

Perhaps if you were clearer with what you are trying to say or perhaps its deliberate?

Have you never approached an acute angle junction in a van with a fully loaded trailer? Do you rely on your mirrors if so ?

I think it is - A bit of goal post moving I see.

But you claimed you always KNOW exactly what speed limit you are in. Stop twisting

Don't say things that I haven't said then you won't be confused

Don't swerve again

If you are giving your driving, the attention it deserves, then there are no blind spots - you are aware of every other vehicle around you, and keep close tabs on them.

On a slip-on road, you use mirrors, combined with the over the shoulder glance, to make sure there is nothing there. Likewise, when passing a slip, even though you have right of way, you make sure there isn't a vehicle alongside you, who may not be aware of your presence.

The one blind spot to be really wary of, on all vehicles, is behind the A pillar, especially when approaching a roundabout. If a small vehicle, already on the roundabout, is moving at a perfect speed to match the apparent movement of your A piller, that vehicle cannot be seen at all, if you keep your head still. Always, when approaching a roundabout, I make a point of moving my head position forward, to look and see what the pillar might be hiding. The A pillar, can be quite wide on modern vehicles, and one on my car is especially wide.

exactly. its your job to make sure you know what is there. We can't blame our Transit van mirrors or say its down to having a trailer

So we've gone from not understanding your mirrors to never having a blind spot.

Being aware it's blind and driving accordingly doesn't stop it being a blind spot.

Pretending there isn't 1 is a major oversight.

Ever driven an artic and turned more than a slight angle? Ever done a blind side reverse?

The more you go on the more you show your swerving

these sound like a lot of dumb excuses for poor driving ability. it doesn't matter if you are riding a moped or driving a tank, its your job to know what is in the space you intend to occupy. if you do not know you risk squashing someone. You cannot blame your mirrors and say 'but he was in my blind spot'

Sorry I didn't spring your poorly set traps.

So we've established

You don't understand your mirrors

And you don't understand what a blind spot is

But you feel able to tell me my driving ability is poor

The more you go on with your twists and turns the more you show yourself up

Whether you are aware or not. There are always blind spots, and the bigger the vehicle the more there are. Being aware of them and driving accordingly is different to bragging that you don't experience any.

 

[fillyboy]

Mini roundabouts and Mexican standoffs, do you try and go for your gun first, or do you wait and see who makes the first move?

 

[motorbiking]

So we've established

that you are clueless - correct

You don't understand your mirrors

You don't know how to use them

And you don't understand what a blind spot is

and you don't know that its your problem to know what is there

But you feel able to tell me my driving ability is poor

as proven by your clueless responses

The more you go on with your twists and turns the more you show yourself up

the more you try, the deeper the hole gets

aware or not? wtf
if you don't know what is in the space you intend to occupy and you move into that space you are driving carelessly. I don't care how many wheels your truck has, how big the steering wheel is or how much it weighs.

its your job to know what's in the space.

What a load of twists and turns.

Let's go back to the start.

Which is the wide angle mirror and what is it's use? Is it the biggest or the smallest

No more swerves, time to prove the point

Looks like another one that you have lost, you must have arms like mine with all that digging

Another that doesn't understand. Or believes bs.

But with you driving a van daily I'd have thought you'd know better.

Alas not
