Is it just me or are people who drive vans the worst drivers on the road for us bikers. It seems every close call I get is some **** driving a van. :mad: Just last ride another van pulled out in front of me and I swear they were looking right at me. Luckily I thought the **** head would do that so I was able to stop. Every van I see I expect them to do that, probably because the one crash I was in was with a lady driving a van. She pulled a U Turn from the shoulder in front of me from a stopped position. You know what she said to me after I pulled my bike out of the side of her van....wait for it..... She said she had the right of way because she had her turn signal on" By the way she didn't and the cars who were behind me told her that. :eek:

**** yeah, I too have had similar issues with vans and those dam things put off some kind of funky wind turbulence too, I hate getting stuck behind those dam things, I think the reason the drivers are so bad as they are usually hauling around 10 kids and the last thing they can pay attention to is the road or anybody around them

HEY HEY HEY my company vehicle is a van. I drive a 2011 E250 econoline van and will say that vans do have bad blind spots so best just keep your distance from them not really the drivers fault its just hard to see.

But Stryker...are you a soccer mom???
Maybe clarify soccer mom or work van.... Last 2 work "trucks" I've had have been vans.... I think it's just people in general it seems that most have a ME first attitude. I have a white full size van and you wouldn't believe how many times I've came close to being side swiped by others who want to be in the lane I'm in. The world is full of dumb a$$es and those who just don't care so be careful
