Fascinating stuff I never thought about. I'll be more thoughtful about my scans.

Great article. I have arthritis in my neck, so I have to take more time to look left and right. I have been told to look for the positive in everything. I never thought there would be a positive in this affliction.

Bob (the original poster), you should modify the title of your post to get more attention: this is important survival advice, not just an interesting read. Thanks very much for posting it.

I appreciate the link. Though I've been riding and reading articles on motorcycle safety for 40 years, much of this is new information to me.

The other British move used all the time is called the "life saver".  Good stuff all.

Worth the read just to understand and adopt the "lookout scan".
