Left or right?

  1. It was somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the
    drugs began to take hold. I remember steve auvache
    That road roller accident was a terrible affair.

    I wondered if it was down to being able to practise rights on
    roundabouts. If you were on the continent then you'd be practising
    lefts. And I reckon stongy (or whatever his name is) is right about
    the runoff thing.

    Maybe, I don't have an opinion I just said the thing about the runoff
    (although accidentally got it the wrong way round) because I guessed it
    could be a contributory factor. I'm no great rider but having got stuck into
    trackdays and training early on I think I do both equally as badly :)

    But in reality there is no more run off on left handers?

    Or perhaps better phrased as "since when did the the front of a Scania
    lorry become considered as 'run off'"

    Left - self caused two occasions.

    The other times have been straight on and involved cars and pedestrians.

    Well, I only stuck the bit in about the runoff as the post seemed a bit
    light on value, and by the end of the sentence I was floundering a bit
    for direction and enthusiasm. Pretty much like that one.

    I blame it on finishing early and having to drive a VW polo today.

    It all depends on the conditions, doesn't it? On one side there could
    be a dry stone wall or a wide firm surface, on the other there could be
    another lane or a tractor with hay-bale spikes.

    You needn't worry about that if you don't slow down.
