Russian crash waiting to happen
If you drove in London, you would understand why helping out is necessary.I never let anyone do that if there's another lane to my right (your left), no matter how pissed they may become that I didn't let them through, since I wasn't moving. Making it easy for them can lead to an accident and I don't want to have the responsibility of contributing to it.
This. I also wind down the window if I have time, to give a hand signal to anyone overtaking. Though I know that any cyclist overtaking on the wrong side of the road will blast through anyway. That's down to them though.When i am in a simmilar situation here i an glued to my mirrors, and i will honk my horn like a madman if i think things are about to go wrong.
I'm not blaming @London WitnessCam or the Powerline van driver for it. The Audi driver had no one behind her, so she could've waited until it was clear to turn.If you drove in London, you would understand why helping out is necessary.
The other drivers were to blame. One for turning too quickly (should be expecting cyclists for one thing) and the other for undertaking at a junction carelessly.
Also the Powerline van (who behaved as you would) actually made the situation worse. Something to think about.
You misunderstand. In London it may never become clear to turn in busy periods. Until some kind soul stops to let you turn.The Audi driver had no one behind her, so she could've waited until it was clear to turn.
Dane or not, he sure as hell handles a truck and trailer better than the large majority of portuguese truckers.well we aim to please
But the plates on the truck beeing Danish do not mean its a Dane driving it, the trucking industry here have taken a severe hit here over the past years.
For the most when we was shipping stuff from my old job the driver dident undestand a word Danish, but if we was lucky he might undestand a little German.
Allso many trucking companies have relocated out of Denmark, and at truck stops here you will find eastern drivers camped out for weeks, some times having to beg money to get somthing to eat.
