I've said it before and I'll say it again... The first license that should be issued to ANYONE is a motorcycle permit... mandatory 250cc for the first two years of being licensed. I think would improve driver skill and motorcycle awareness by leaps and bounds.

I've lost count of the number of times that I've been right along side a driver's window and he hasn't bothered to look beside him, before almost driving me into a guardrail. While I agree that sometimes you can look and still not see, far too many people no longer even bother to look.

very true... I see motorcycles everywhere because I look for them... I started thinking about something about a year ago... when I noticed that there were far more motorcycles on the road than I thought... I started to wonder if the motorcycle traffic had really increased... or (more likely) I was only seeing them because I was looking for them. kinda bugs me because i wonder if I ever was that moron who cut off a bike... I don't think I ever was... but no way to know for sure |

I posted that story not too long ago, when i was driving behind my friend in my cage and the fucking woman almost ran into him twice without knowing. Once she almost pushed him into a concrete dividor before he slammed on her driver side window to get her attention. She had the audacity to roll down her window and flick HIM off..... I dont use this word often, but what a cunt.
