sad, coz motorist gives a flip.

 

The last two weeks I've noticed the worst driving patterns.

 

Motorist simply do not slow down and over take when its safe to do so. they rather speed up for a gap, not to go over the white line and hoot at you as they feel you are in their way and should all of a sudden disappear of the face of the earth.

It is very sad BUT what were they doing on the N12, it is a highway.

 

Not sure exactly where this happened but from the Google images i just checked the N12 in the Potch area it is not a highway.  Dual carriage but not a highway.

This is about 5km outside Potch on the N12 to Klerksdorp. It is supposed to be an 80km/h stretch.

It is close to one of the access road turn-offs into Ikageng and it might be that they were crossing the road to go into Ikageng. There is a 2m wide path on the other side of the road that we use when we ride to Klerksdorp, don't know why they weren't using that...

The Schoemansdrift road get used by a lot of cyclists, recreational and commuters. We were visiting my aunt and uncle saterday afternoon/evening on their farm in the Vredefort Dome area  and on our way home I noticed lots of commuters with no lights, reflectors or lighter/reflective clothing. You only become aware of them when your are right on top of them.
