It's funny, you see people set out on Targa and other road rallies and they stick to their own lane rounding corners. You know at that point the car isn't coming back straight.
I do it all the time on empty roads I know don't have hidden driveways or anything.

Is it whimpy to swing across the road and occupy the left hard shoulder or the opposite lane, isn't it more macho to load up those tyres and pull some gS tracking thru between the lane sides!

Lazy or complacent or incompentent or illegal!

Stupid response, it's about comfort, safety and economy if you know what you're doing. Edit: Or were you being facetious!

You could try reading a few of the posts on the thread instead of just getting your hackles up.!

"I never do it on a blind corner" eh ! Do you want that written on your victims head stone. WHY then do you bother to stop for a red light if you can see nothing is coming ! Why do you stop for a stop sign ! Why bother to wear you seat belt ! It's not like your ever going to crash is it! Why bother keeping left of a solid yellow line
Let me guess .you're a safe driver. I've got a news flash for you WHEN you crash you'll probably survive and blame .everybody but you.

You're probably more likely to crash due to your lack of confidence.

Do you think the motor cyclist coming the other way might! The first rule of the road. 'KEEP LEFT'.

Quote me properly you dick, the sentence reads; " If you can see ahead I can't see a problem with crossing the line a bit." If there was a motorcyclist coming the other way it wouldn't happen.

You must have one of those all seeing eyes.where can I buy one of those!

Are you claiming that a line painted on the road prevents you from seeingbeyond it! Tragic condition you must suffer from, is there a name for it!

Today I was driving and there was this giant invisible meatball in my lane. I hit it cause I wasn't cutting the corner. How does it make you feel you killed me by guilt tripping me about my corner cutting! BTW I was carrying 3 nuns, the pope and president obama, they're all dead to.
^That's my full retard response to the full retard doom gloom posts, If we are talking about phantom motorcyclists and such then I might as well spew out the best story I can come up with as well

When i drove B-Train, Wellington - Turangi swap, save upto 24km's cutting every corner 1-way, average 18k's 1-way, save 200k a-week, 10,000k a year.

I suppose you think anyone who overtakes another vehicle is a reckless, lunatic baby-eater also!

Oh please, it's a $600 fine for "driving in a manner that causes annoyance". Your driving annoys me, therefore you should be fined, shame on you, you're obviiously scum of the earth.

Wow, if thats the case then there must be some very poor drivers in Jappas that are all over the road trying to keep up with the dunnydores & coons Ive owned, even funnier when theyre lowered boyracer types

It's TRANsport not MOTORsport! Why should we have to "keep up"!
