Re: [ST] Fw: [safespeed] PR375: Sorry Mate, I Didn't See You

I think the 'A' pillar argument applies to motorcyclists coming from
the side (typically the driver's side) at an intersection.

 Hmm... I just always use extra throttle to ensure that I don't linger
in
anyone's blind spot (car or bike).  Common sense, I know, but isn't
really
practiced here in the US.  People drive side by side or slightly
staggered
in the blind spot for miles.

'A pillar' blind spots are believed to be a common cause of 'Sorry
Mate, I
> didn't See You' (SMIDSY) crashes, and are especially dangerous to
bikers.
