Hi - this my first post. Collecting my first Z (2007 GT) next week, and being a little apprehensive as well as excited, I thought a bit of safety reading wouldn't harm.
I found it all very helpful, especially the bit about roundabouts. I was a passenger in an accident at one - the experience kept me safe for 20 years until I did the same thing myself! Let's hope I've learnt the lesson this time.
Focusing a way ahead is certainly a good tip - something I learnt long ago riding a motorbike. But not too effective at roundabouts!
A belief that 'the buggers are all out to kill you' does lead to self-preservation too.
