You might want to do something that helps people see you better. That doesn't seem normal to me.

I'm riding a massive white bike with a white helmet and Klim jacket plastered in reflectors. The front of the bike has 2-3 different lights on it I think. A row of LEDs (KTM specialty) under the low beam. This was unusual but I just think I met two complete idiots today.

Edit: I was also going pretty slow!!

No it's not even that. They are OEM and not blinding. I haven't had any issues for months and then these two clowns come along today in the space of 20 seconds.

You were lucky that they weren't 3 or four seconds apart or you might still have been cursing the first, when the second came along. It happens.
 
I suspect that the Crown Vic driver saw the tractor trailer pull out and thought that nothing was behind the car in front of you. SMIDSY

You could be right, the tractor trailer was a light colour and there's a small chance that I could have blended in. If you freeze the video though you'll see the car driver has a totally clueless expression on their face and the same freeze frame seems to show some reasonable dings in the car too. I don't think this is the drivers first rodeo.

I'd feel safer with 100 of them coming through a roundabout than a single gold Corolla.

100 Corollas for me. Bikes are too unpredictable, don't signal, leave signals on, remove signals for better aesthetics etc.

@matthew. Second last horn was too late. Right as reverse lights go on, lean on the horn.

last one. Watch moving into that middle lane that quickly. Sometimes people unfamiliar with the area, get stuck behind the left turners. Other times, the intersection is poorly planned. Lakeshore east, by the gardiner ramp, just est of the exhibition, was a good example.

I don't want to even picture that horror ... 100 Corollas!!!!
 
The only issue I've ever had with Corollas and other small cars, is that people don't ever seem to pedal them fast enough.
