Well bit of a rant really,
I was driving along the motorway earlier doing about 80 steady in the middle lane (yes I was overtaking, not hogging ) and noticed two bikes coming up pretty fast in my mirror. I'd say doing about 120mph
When the first one passed me he didnt brake, but dropped of the throttle significantly, turned around to look back at the second rider and drifted over in to the middle lane causing me to take evasive action.
I have nothing against people who ride bikes (infact I intend to learn myself in september) but I know a lot of who drivers do, I just think that they should maybe have been a little more responsible, its not just their saftey they are risking but that of the people around them, plus they are giving their fellow riders a bad name.
People driving fast when its safe to do so is fine in my opinion, but it was rush hour, the motorway was busy and they caused disruption to other drivers, well im sorry but that doesnt impress me.
Am I just annoyed because I had to slam on, or do I have a valid point?
