Risking your own life is one thing. Risking the lives of others is a

whole new ballgame.



As a bike rider, my greatest fear isn't when I'm riding, but when I'm

stopped at traffic lights and there's a car behind me. This is when

I'm most vulnerable.  If the cars brakes don't work, and ploughs into

me I'm totally rooted.. Either run over by the car itself, or pushed

into the oncoming traffic... neither is very nice.

Fortunetlly, it's never happened to me on the bike yet...  but I've

been rammed this way while I've been in a car on 3 different

occasions.

What was yours?
