Watch that left cross. This is a good example why you should stop behind traffic nearer the center line so you are not hidden from the view of other road users and more visible to help avoid a traffic accident.

Did the motorist see me and think they could beat me through the traffic light? Quite possibly. Did they just not see me? Also quite possible. Where they distracted? Another possibility.

I had the right of way because turning traffic is supposed to give way to traffic traveling straight through an intersection.

Reaction time is everything so it's also always good to keep those brake levers covered at intersections, and know how to perform emergency maneuvers like a quick stop and quick turn, and how to fall.

Another clip from my ride is attached to this video of when I unexpectedly met up with a buddy, who shall remain nameless. Wear a helmet, guy!
