Why I carry toilet paper!



In the distance, a car waits to pull out.








It waits for the two cars to pass









Bear in mind I have a Philips motovision bulb (Switched on by the way!)









See? Those drum brakes did work, as did the horn!

Very clear photos. Great quality. Look like stills from a GoPro camera? I've got one of these. I should make better use of it. Do you have it running whenever you go out?

Very nice clear pictures but I doubt you would need any toilet paper or indeed heavy braking, the speedo reading before during and after the car pulled out hardly vary, I see your point but I feel that the car driver caused you very little inconvenience in this instance, was the horn really necessary or were you just feeling a little grumpy?.

The speedo reading on my bullet? LOL!



Most speedo’s are ‘damped’, but I think mine is ‘soaked’ as it’s return

to zero even when stationary can be several seconds, about the speed of a clocks sweep second hand but backwards of course! see vid (if it worked)



I was doing about 30, when the car pulled out, I guess the car had got up to about 10-15

MPH when I had caught it, after all, it had JUST pulled out of the junction.









The camera is an iPhone 5, secured with an elsaticated bungy around my chest!
