Unhappy

I would just like to apologise for my driving yesterday evening whilst driving home from a clients. In particular the guy on the red and black s reg suzuki srad whatever.

Now i am sorry if i scared the sh!te out of him, but **** me, i nearly crapped myself.

So i would like to apologise to the bike rider, and also other road users, as the driving adopted by me was totally inappropriate.

Sorry

Steven

Exclamation

Cars and bikes racing just don't mix......... distances need to be kept huge.

Stay safe and glad your brain engaged. We've all done it at some point or another.

Cheers Si

sounds like you let the idiotic behaviour of the bike rider affect your judgement. For what its worth it sounds as if he was in the wrong. Its hard to rise above that kind of thing especially when you are just following your normal routine. You can bet if the idiot was posting on a bike forum he wouldn't be man enough to admit his mistake. Good for you - your action in posting this demonstrates your maturity.

We've all been a d1ck behind the wheel at some point in our lives, it's just lucky that there are people around who can take a step back and look at what whats safe and what's not.
All's well that ends well.

I bet he got a shock though.

Sorry puff, but the holier than though stance is a bit irritating. I cover far more miles in my car than I do on my bike, but I can see both sides and have seen bad driving and riding. To say what he said smacks of a total lack of tolerance.

It takes two to tango, I often have a good "session" with bikes, and always give or receive a thumbs up.. if things go wrong we only have ourselves to blame..

good man for apologising. We've all done it in the past, and there are a few I wish i could put my hands up and say 'red mist got me'. Strange thing is it wont be your last, but your probably calm down alot quicker
