  You want to avoid the left lane in germany unless you are going atleast 100mph or you may end up on the hood of an Audi.

  I&apos;m a trucker, and my ability to see around me is unparalleled by any other vehicle. So the &quot;blind spot&quot; thing is overplayed. <br> &nbsp;However, when I&apos;m on my bike I get by trucks as fast as possible. Two reasons, blowouts on a truck tire are an explosion with alot of debris. The sidewall of a truck tire is about an inch thick so you wouldn&apos;t believe the force of a blowout.<br> &nbsp;Another reason is as a trucker, I would rather you didn&apos;t linger next to me. If you&apos;re going to pass, &nbsp;pass and get it over with.

  I&apos;ve been riding on the street for over 30 years, and developed your same habits in my 20s: always have my thumb on the horn, always a finger on the brake, don&apos;t be in blind spots, flash the brakes in urgent situations, always watch the mirrors and have an exit plan when stopped at a light. &nbsp;I think this is a large part of how I lived to see my 50s! &nbsp;Thank you so much for making this video. &nbsp;I&apos;d love for you to make a video focusing on street smarts, without mixing the topic with a bike review. &nbsp;Your videos are the best I&apos;ve found anywhere! &nbsp;Cheers!

  “These are good people, mostly good drivers.” Yea... maybe in Canada. Certainly not in Florida.

  Additional tip for riding in the city: keep both hands on the bars at all times, Ryan! ;p

  I learned to ride in Los Angeles. &nbsp;Literally, a daily intro into new risks.

  ABS ALLOWS YOU TO TURN UNDER FULL BRAKING!! You cant turn to avoid obstacle if you’re skidding. Just like a car — that’s the magic! Antiblockiersystem. 🏁

  Also, something that has always saved me from many dangerous situations is to always look at least one or 2 cars ahead of me. So instead of reacting to a dangerous situation... I would either react ahead of time than the car in front me or at the very least, at the same time.

  &quot;Mostly everyone is a good driver,&quot; he says. It is something I wish I could say of driving in Southern California. I cannot.
