LEFT TURNER ALERTS

reminder to all riders, be extra vigilant at intersections and left turner. Just this week alone, there was a fatality in Burnaby and a serious crash in Richmond.

Looks like another anniversary edition Yamaha headed for the scrap yard. Hope the rider didn't get too f'd up, he looked to rag doll through the air pretty good there.

Remember to shift to position 3 in your lane so that you can see any cars turning and so they can see you

Position three, weave, flash headlights, go through with a car (if possible) and brake then make eye contact before crossing. Acting like you're another car will get you hit. You might be right but you'll be dead right.

I'm on the fence about flashing my high beams at drivers though. Sometimes it can mean HEY LOOK OUT. sometimes it means GO AHEAD.

I usually just turn on my high beams and weave into position 3 as I approach the intersection.
