Good job on the miss.
I ride expecting to find something ove the brow of a hill. So in anticpation of something going wrong I'll roll off the throttle a little and sit up straight which increases the line of sight over the brow of the hill.
2 notable cases. Make that 3.
Late at night 2 white horses
Late at night I kerosene fueled road lamp
A frickin fire truck on my side of the road barreling towards me, lights flashing, no siren. If I'd been riding in the left of my lane I'd be dead.
I also tend to move to the right a little so that if someone is on my side of the road I've got a tad more wiggle room - of course this now brings me nearer to anyone pulling out of a driveway just over the brow of the hill.
Yep the "voice" will save you if you listen to it. I've had the urge to slow down on so many occasions I can't remember them all. I do know that I would not be alive if I had ignored the "voice".
My ignoring mine cost me a $151 speeding ticket a few weeks ago.
