christ alive. RideFree's hazard perception clips demonstrate HORRIBLE lane discipline, front separation distance, reactions, timings, and overall decision making.

I know the point is to give everyone the maximum time before realising what the problem is, but jfc, I grit my teeth and clench my knuckles watching it.

Oh yeah, and the "what is the biggest hazard to you?" 'correct' answers are bullshit. A bad driver reacting impulsively is always more alarming to me than a cyclist who turns right.

An oncoming van off a blind right turn after you traverse a narrow bridge is always more hazardous than an oncoming car through a narrow under train tunnel. It's a VAN. It has more mass. Duh?!!?!

Fine! I suppose the oncoming car through the narrow tunnel COULD be more hazardous than the oncoming van after the narrow bridge, but it's still a stupid fucking question.

Yes, it is more dangerous to have restricted movement, whether from pedestrians or a giant lorry. It's still worse to face a large oncoming vehicle with low or no visibility compared to noticing anything oncoming and slowing down well in advance so it ever becomes an issue.

JFC. Do you want to die? No? Then practice defensive driving.

Try to predict what dumb shit other (tired, distracted, sick, late for work, pained) drivers in their 1 ton bullets will do.
Then assume the worst example and plan how to react in advance to preserve as many options for future you as possible.

There is no correct answer to invalid questions.

There is no "most hazardous" road user (besides yourself).

"Have you stopped / When did you stop beating [off] your wife?" Considering I have no wife, I cannot respond in any 'correct' way.
