Amber lights terrify me as a motorbike rider.
I have lost count at the number of times that I have slowed down for the amber light only to have the idiot behind me simply swerve around and keep going.
The problem is that because I'm on a bike they don't even bother to change lanes and usually miss my side by inches.
The most interesting one was a few years back when a lady did precisely this and went around me through a red light (I'm convinced to this day that I felt the car brush my leg) only to plough into a car which was crossing the intersection.
After applying first aid to the said lady and the other cars occupants, the lady then abused me for stopping suddenly and said it my fault the accident happened and that she would be sending me the insurance bill.
I gave my statement to the Police and obviously nothing came of her threats.
