    G'day
    This technically may not be the right place for this video, apologies, but I think new riders need to see this... Watch the video and do the test, play along.
    Test Your Awareness: Do The Test
    Done?


    ...

    Did you "pass the test"?
    Point is, most car drivers out there will be looking for cars, not you. They don't make the sub conscious effort to look for bikes, they can look right at you and you will be "filtered out", ignored, because they are looking for cars.
    You are invisible, so ride accordingly.

    First time I watched it I only spotted the bear as he was leaving the frame, so I recon I got 50%...
    Hope it has helped, last time I shared this on a forum (mainly car drivers or those who don't use the roads) not only did everybody fail, but they than went into a collective rant over how stupid it was, so they completely missed the point as well :BangHead:
