If you drive properly
i.e. in the centre of the road, be defensive, always assume cars are not going to notice you so make yourself visible, then you shouldn't get clipped.
Unfortunately, car drivers don't pay attention and some riders drive dangerously because they're on a machine that can.

suzuki maruader 125
I just passed my CBT, see. It was sitting in a garage for months so needed a lot of fiddling and playing with the choke to get it going. Needs riding, or a service. Fucking lovely though :) What did you have?
