Personally I think I have a really screwed up set of values for riding motorcycles. I don't brag about it, or try to validate it to other people. BUT...The safest motorcycle with the most considerate sane rider aboard, wearing all the safest gear (including the neon orange triangle)...SHOULD be driving a CAR. As a matter of fact, they should walk everywhere they go wearing the above mentioned safety gear.
Bicyclists are insane. They plod along the side of busy streets like fleshy slugs with no way to defend themselves or evade death. They pull their BABIES behind them in little trailers! I never hear anyone tell them they're idiots. It's always "Good for you! One less car!"
