Hello SpyderLovers
Attached is the ride again from Mapleton to Nambour Queensland this time I have tried to swap the view to show both the Front and Rear, if you notice when I turn left you will see I stopped well clear of the corner as I seen the driver of the Toyota had already was trying to cut the corner, this is why we have a dash camera.
If you can see how I can improve please let me know.

I have the same system and love it! Sorry to see that apparently we have shipped some of our miserable drivers to you! Just to be sure, the ones we are missing have not improved the driving skills over here at all!
Yep they all thnk it is their right to drive that way, just glad I seen that fool in the toyota and stopped short of the corner.Quote:

But….but…..but……they had to cut the corner, Latrappe. Otherwise they would have had to wait for that approaching car (which has no traffic behind it), to pass before they could turn. Their time is far too valuable to allow that to happen (in THEIR tiny minds, anyway). Frightening, isn’t it, that they are prepared to risk a collision for the sake of 5 seconds.:banghead:Quote:

If you worry about us on the wrong side of the road try Asia in the 70s that was scary.
As an after thought I have been thinking of getting the INNOVV ThirdEye as it lets you know whos sneeking up in your blind spot, but then do I want to know as thats scary at the best of times.:yikes:
Then you would be just as abstracted watching that thing as half of the people coming at you, keep your eyes on the road!
Mikey -- I just ordered a ThirdEYE "Mirror Style" version https://www.innovv.com/product-page/...mirror-version My intent is to mount the indicators in the shadow of the console hood for a "Heads-Down" display near the turn indicators and speed/tach gauges. My thinking is the ThirdEYE actually contributes to situational awareness by not only indicating presence of nearby vehicles (Blind Spot Detection) but also when vehicles are approaching at a concerning (Time To Collision < 3 seconds) rate of speed (Lane Change Assist and Rear Collision Warning) thereby cueing your attention. https://www.innovv.com/innovv-thirdeye-bsdsystem
Here in San Diego we have a sunshine glare problem especially riding away from sun with faceshield down and sunglasses on. I've asked Innovv for the wiring diagram of their indicators so I can add Yellow repeaters like I did for the Spyder turn signals (notice the right side is washed out and the left is barely visible and that's with a camera -- no faceshield or sunglasses).
