This was embedded in another forum. I feel it is well worth the 8 minutes, and a friendly reminder that your safety is your responsibility, not the cager's.....

If your cold weather gear is dark or non-contrasting, consider putting on a high viz vest. Bright helmets are a great idea too. Hope you guys enjoy the winter riding, and happy holidays!

That was interesting I had never thought about swerving other than at a spur of the moment. But if your going to use acronyms you need to spell them out on the screen. The maneuver was the SIAM I think see that is the problem. I still don't know what SMIDSY stands for.
