I find myself doing this more and more while I drive the company vehicle. I see a rider in front of me and not only do I watch how they rides, but what kind of gear he has on. I judge the way how he handles the bike during stops, lane changes and most importantly, lane choice and line. Today, I was following a bike as we came off the surface street onto the freeway. I said to myself, if he had any brains at all, he would merge across the four lanes into the far left. He did, but in my opinion, he choose the wrong line. He was in the right line, where I would have opted the left, allowing some cusion on the right from bad lane changes, plus there was plenty of room on the left emergency lane for an escape route.
