He was probably thinking about his bike parked in the garage while he went for a spin in the SAAB.

trevrev... i am a motorcyclist driving big sports bikes for many years; currently drive a honda fireblade used to commute the 2 days that i cant cycle). i'll go from 0 - 60 before the car beside me at the lights has even reached biting point.
if i wanted to, virtually every set of lights i pull off from i could come into contact with someone pushing their luck on red/amber but part of defensive driving is to anticipate actions like that, look for them and act accordingly.
anyway, it looks like more info shows he didn't race of the lights.

Do you search for any thread that Mr P is on and automatically assume he's having a go at you? I know you and he seem to have regular 'discussions' on here, but really...
That's the weirdest, most paranoid posting I've ever seen. You need to start taking your meds again!

MrP has got a fixation for motorcyclists and 4x4 drivers. You'd know that already because of the last thread you posted on regarding 4x4s.
Now before you roll your eyes, take another look at the thread and perhaps you might see why I get defensive at the continual attacks on the record of 4x4 safety. These attacks are just unfounded bollocks which are rooted in prejudice for the sort of people you might imagine make up the ownership. You are actually at a substantially less risk of getting injured by one than a regular car in the urban environment.

Unless I'm very much mistaken, the thread's about a Saab driver with a THINK BIKE! sticker in the back window, not 4x4's.
Ahhh.... Condor!

That is total crap and as I geniunely moan about BMW drivers Cab Drivers Bus Drivers and van man,I don't actually think 4x4 drivers are much better.I've had my troubles with these tank drivers before but have rarely moaned about them.
All I see is a frenzy of denial when faced with the unthinkable. The proof is there that you are substantially less likely to be hit by a 4x4, means that 4x4 drivers are safer drivers and execute the task with more consideration to those around them than those of you driving regular cars.
This is exactly what you want isn't it. The forum is full of threads stating how cars cut cyclists up on a regular basis. 4x4s are slower vehicles being driven by conscientious drivers. What more can you ask for if people insist on using their cars
I'm not surprised you are all going off on one given how many of you drive regular cars.
There is no such thing as a friendly car in an accident. They all have the capacity to kill a pedestrian or cyclist if driving inconsiderately. You are arguing about shades of grey at the end of the day above 40mph (and you well know it)
You painted yourself into a corner years ago with this one guys - Suck it up and face the facts
