And all of those people (and more) think bike riders are the most dangerous.

20 years ? I’ll up you by 10 .. More like 30 years IMO
Now a whole lot of people think they can do whatever they want to .
People are appearing in traffic court charged with things no-one in their right mind would do and when asked to explain their behavior their response more often than not is ..”My daddy , grandpappy , mother always did this and was never stopped !”

Ms. Madeiros.

There is an eleven miles of very twisty roads located up in the mountains in North Carolina called THE DRAGON which has well over one hundred left and right corners.

The DRAGON has many wrecked cars and an array of bikes, some hanging up in trees while still more scattered on either side of that road .

These vehicles were trashed while racing the clock by those were trying to get their stripes, who, I am thinking were those who took their eyes of the road or never saw the other vehicle coming .

Unfortunately there are many who are not here any more to tell their story.

There is a permanent ambulance stationed at the begining and for others, the end of their road.

We decided not to ride THE DRAGON, you can call me an alive chicken as there were too many blind corners .

My favorite road will always be # 23

However. I have see a video of THE DRAGON taken from the handle bar of a super bike ,scary !

“WHY??????”

Because there are no consequences. The BPS stopped enforcing traffic laws some 20 years ago. We now have a whole generation of people who have never had to obey the Road Traffic Act.

The more the powers that be continue bashing the public invites reprocussions.

This is about anger management and who is king of the road ?

Mr. Policeman .Try running the show with a feather rather than the hammer.

Go for public safety, that work every time.

In the USA they have the ” Motor Safety Foundation” a very comprehensive motorcycles course , my though was what can they teach me, at the end of the two day course my answer was EVERY THING !

While riding >>> Here is a hint to avoid the trap. Be on the constant look out for ” means of escape.”

The automatic gear gear box on most vehicles is progressive as the vehicle searched for the next higher gear , up hill ,the vehicle gear changing does the exact opposite.

Riding a bike behind an exotic car with its air-condition and sterio playing is not exactly a trilling experiance ,can’t blame the bike rider for over taking.

With regard and for the benifit of the car driver and bike rider, it is better to have the bike rider in front of you where you can see the rider who coul be a relative than behind you where you can not.

Tailgating is a big problem and kind of dangeriouse .

That would mean that BPS officers would be out of the stations and doing their jobs. Hilarious concept! What a funny guy.

More Collusions more injuries more deaths this will continue until we finally get more radar patrols out there. The Kindley Field International Speedway is open every weekday i travel at 50k and i get overtaken by 25+ vehicles daily. If we can start to catch more then the courts need to do their job and stop this slap on the wrist punishments. Wonder what the health costs attributed to Collusions are and would they be reduced if we could get more people with better driving habits.
remember the days when 40mph got you 3 years off the road

“There are “between 4 and 6 RTCs being reported daily”

I wonder if enforcing the Road Traffic Act might change that …

Just wait for the ministers to drive their 13 heavy electric cars on our poorly maintained roads and discover that the laws of physics cannot be ignored when braking.
