In a car, you have a shell around you, and you also have a seatbelt and somtimes an airbag, but you don't see the percentage of drivers in cars, like you do bikes, driving like idiots imo.

I do know one thing, almost every bike I have seen out on the road, drives like an ***. They weave in and out of traffic, and they always seem to be the ones to be cutting people off and speeding way more than cars.

Also, that person on that bike had a passanger.......I guess they didn't have a choice?


Marty, are you trying to tell me that you never see guys on bikes riding like idiots?

Here's some words out of my own cousins mouth that sum up the mentality of most of the people that own or have riden bikes....."I love the speed. I like the fact that I can still get through traffic because my bike can fit between cars".

If he ever get's hurt (knock on wood), I WILL feel bad for him, but I will also know it was a choice HE made. Even his parents know how he is. None of us can control him. Oh well.

Now if the that guy in that link was cut off by someone else, and then ran into that truck, then yes, I feel sorry.....but without seeing the original news report that was with those pics, my first comment still stands.

I've seen the way people on bikes ride. All I can say is.....oh well.

maybe you should have said "i've seen the way some people ride" Al..
your comments made it seem that ALL riders rode like idiots..
have i seen idiot riders?? yes..
am i an idiot rider?? after the near misses i've had due to one of your almost innocently described "4-wheelers" i'd have to say i'm a damn good rider..

and i'd have to disagree with you about bikers over 4-wheelers....BIG TIME
