    Just remember - if you haven't seen the whites of the drivers eyes - assume they haven't seen you. Take care.....

    I would endorse Stolly’s point. You can learn a whole heap and experience will teach you a whole lot more but nothing bears appreciating your relative invisibility on the road. A bike can disappear behind a door pillar the way a car never can. If you can’t see another driver, he can’t see you. Don’t get in blind spots and certainly never stay there.
    Enjoy!

    I hope you enjoy the freedom you feel from riding a motorcycle. A lot of good advice above, but I will add 1 more.

    If you see a car at a junction. Assume it will pull out in front of you. They look but don’t see Motorcycles. Even ones with headlights on and riders wearing reflective jackets.

    If you are sitting at a junction waiting to pull out onto a road to join it or cross and a car (vehicle) is approaching with its indicator flashing as to turn into your road do not pull out expecting it will turn, saw a nasty accident on a junction I used to live on, the driver who pulled out was deemed to be at fault not the car on the road even though he failed to turn his indicator off.
    I NEVER trust indicators, they only serve the purpose of getting my attention.
