They don't know a motorcycle can brake in half the distance of their car at the same speed. You have to ride a motorcycle as defensively as possible. If you take the bad *** attitude that you have the right of way, screw them....you're a dead man walking. (riding)

I've seen a lot of bikers riding like idiots too. Just a statistic waiting to happen. Unfortunatly my brother is one of them.

Yeah you're right. Some of these riders think they're invincible, full of piss and vinegar. I can think of some wild antics I pulled in the 70's when I was in my 20's and the Good Lord saw me through and gave me the chance to grow up and get smart.
