What I said is just… fear of getting ran over because by the time you notice* the sound of the motor of an extremely heavy and fast vehicle approaching you it’s probably right behind you. This logic also assumes you’re getting over as much as you can (even totally off the road if it isn’t a ditch) whenever you see oncoming traffic though. Either way, not preferred.
This was my own logic (not that I actually rode very much like that) until I got myself a mirror.
* also knowing that it’s approaching you, not going some other direction
Maybe, but that’s circumstantial.
