Cager left turns in front of me!!
I was out today running errands on the bike and as I was coming home down a 45 mph road in a highly populated area I saw 3 cages waiting to make left turns. Each 1 street back from the next. AsI approach these vehicles I start to slow a bit. I am 100 or so feet from the first cage when it turns left, a few feet further from the second and it turns and a little farther from the third and it also turns. Now Im continuing on thinking about what just happened. I think to myselfthat had I been in my 5300 lb Expedition these people wouldnt have been so quick to turn with that little space. I also wondered had the first cage driven off a cliff if the other two would have followed. lol. I just wanted to vent a little.

Get used to it and be prepared.
The best thing to do when you see a left turning cager, slow down and let them out. Then you don't have to worry that they will get you just as you get there.

I assume everyone making a left turn in front of me will turn. They do it when I am driving my SUV so you have to figure they will do it when I am on my bike. Never under estimate the stupidity or the mean-spiritness of your fellow man.
