Video

Very good know

Very nice vid! Short, simple, easy to understand.

Long time since I took my IAM test but I seem to remember being encouraged to cross the centre line, if the road ahead was clear, to open bends. Didn't see that here. Is using full width of road no longer a thing?

Do you know the web-hub link doesn't work?

Excellent video. 🙏🏍️💨👍

Ok, that’s great advice, but the problem in those situations is the motorists behind getting itchy? They will not be happy with you holding them up, and you could end up in trouble with them up your arse, it happens quite frequently these days.

very helpful and informative, with very clear demonstrations in a real life scenario

Great video, can you settle an argument please. At 3:42, it shows the wheels tight against the solid white line, with the offside of the bike over the line. Is it the offside of the vehicle or the wheels that shouldn't cross the line ? Cheers.

Well made video but, really, it's breaking things down to the ridiculous. What next? How to touch your nose with your finger? This maybe useful for a complete novice, or a theory exam but in the real world is of little value. If you can't tell the difference between a sharp corner and a shallow corner you've got bigger problems. Also the cornering technique shown at the 4min mark is likely to have you wiped out by an oncoming vehicle who is cutting the corner. And who actually thinks "is the limit point moving towards me"? This video and others like it (many) will simply make new riders overthink the corner. Best advice I ever read on corners is "it's better to think you could have taken the last corner 10mph faster than to think i should have taken it 10mph slower!" Happy biking !

Good video, excellent message, but I had to wince right at the end 😳. His positioning at 5:53 is less safe than it should have been. It even bullies the oncoming car to move to its left, the vehicles are that close.

😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

Then why in lessons are we told to NOT go near the central white line and to stay in the middle/left of the lane when doing left hand bends? Seems like Andy is putting himself in a good place to get hit by any vehicles cutting the corner, and to avoid them he'll have to do a sharp turn in the middle of the bend. This would appear to be sacrificing safety for positioning.

Aside from roads, etc,... women would feel a lot safer. Subways, car parks, and suburban streets can be pitch black as early as 4pm. It's utterly insane.

It was a master stroke to get the guy to narrate as if talking to a class of 11yr olds - took me back to a happy time, in the mid 70s.

Simple but effective - well done RoSPA

The riders who would benefit from this wont watch it.

2 things. One we only see corners or bends that are clear of any or all obstructions. No blind bends with hedges or trees or walls etc. they act as vision blockers and makes our ride and bends more dangerous. Two, at the beginning we see Andy riding toward a left hand bend and close to the double white lines. That position went out with the Arc ie. the Police Roadcraft in their 2013 issue and position 5 being close to the line was considered unsuitable to teach to civilians as it was considered to be too dangerous. Why place oneself in a more dangerous position and then have to take emergency avoiding actions when or if necessary to do so.

What if there isn't a chair nearby?

I find myself using the same road positioning tips when I am driving my car - to a lesser degree of course

Extreme positioning is now frowned upon. Don’t do a P3 on a left or a P1 on a right. Otherwise a good video.

Slow down and ride within your limits, don't ride in groups where you are trying to keep up with faster riders, let aggressive traffic past (Bmw's and big Audi's mostly), you'll filter past them at the next town or road works etc most likely anyway, slow down and enjoy the scenery, relax.

Such a clear explanation of limit points

YOUR VIDEOS ARE AMAZING SO MUCH AND NOW I CAN TELL MY MOM

Dude I love yours videos

1.39 make eye contact with the car driver? How when I'm 50m away with a tinted visor or sunglasses ? Can I see the driver? Are they looking my way? Will they see me ? Should I get there attention with horn or movement? Watch the wheels, cover brakes, slow down or move away incase the swing wide perhaps would be a better thought and action process.

Good video for me as a beginner !

The most complicated way possible to say "How far can you see?" But doesn't address, at all, the importance of being able to slow into a corner and not accelerating until we can see our exit and take away lean angle.

This needs more views, I heard that if you close your door not as much will be burned is that true? One good thing about my house is that since it’s newer it has something where if it detects a electrical fire starting it will automatically turn of the entire houses internet to prevent a fire

If I have a CIHT membership do I automatically have a RoSPA membership too? Saw on CIHT website that there is a partnership.

Its unneccesary to go position 3 for the bend because you can see inside the corner. Why do i need to position myself if i can see the corner clearly

Well I will not be riding in position 3 , to much danger with oncoming traffic so I’ll be in position 21/2

Well I will not be riding in position 3 , to much danger with oncoming traffic so I’ll be in position 21/2

which safety activities at workplace we should apply for safety award if my company have safety award program?

Is this video aimed at six year olds? Judging by the script and the voiceover, it sounds like it.

Jill that's great - and well voiced! It's important advice to be aware of too.

One of the best things I ever did was to do the police riding course not long after passing my test. We did all this kind of thing and much more,

Excellent information, but more importantly, excellent _presentation._ Really well done.

Cat and fiddle pass. beautiful road.

I don't agree with left cornering. You should never ever get into a corner so close to the middle of the road. You never know if an idiot could be coming in too fast and using your lane. By the time you notice there is no easy way to move closer to the edge

Very clear and valuable information

it seems the lack of comments may indicate peoples attitude to driving and safe driving?

Never heard about limit points before. Excellent information. Thankyou

Brilliant video apart from the voice over who thinks he's narrating an episode of Mr Ben

I passed my test in 1982 and I am stunned at this video. I mean, isn't it completely obvious? Feel what the bike is doing, look ahead to the way the bends are bending, and most importantly if someone is waiting to pull out from a side junction then wait until you see the whites of their eyes, if you don't then you could be toast. I'm probably going to get flamed for this, but if you ride a bike you then get your senses aware, that's what it's all about. No real guidance back in my day, you just did it or you didn't. You got it or you didn't. Work it out youngsters, it's truly worth it!! I'd NEVER ride a bike based on videos like this - going into a corner thinking what did they say? You feel it or you don't. Motorcycles - my love

This would make much more sense WITHOUT using slow motion footage. After all speed is the main factor here. It looks cool if you are editing the footage, but this is an instructional video, some might come to the wrong conclusion that Rospa want you ride slow and then slow down more before a corner.
