Recent deaths highlight dangers of lane-splitting

Lane splitting could be done safely I suppose but since about 90 per cent of bikers ride like maniacs whether they are on city streets or the highways I guess it's obvious that more than a few of them are going to end up with their brains and guts scattered all over the highway. I hear that Emergency Room personnel refer to them as "donor mobiles" or something like that. I guess something can be said for thinning out the gene pool.

Motorcycle registration rates should be $4000/per year unless you agree to donate your organs upon death from motorcycle accident. Agree to that and your registration is free. If you ride like a sane person this is a win, if you ride like idiot at least it will be a win for some folks in need.

A sane motorcycle rider??? When was the last time you saw one of those? |

All you cagers ever see are the 10% of bikes being ridden by the idiots. You never see the other 90% who are riding well within the law, and doing it safely. In fact, that's exactly what you say when you run one of us down - "I never SAW him!"

You've got the figures about backwards! It's more like 90 per cent of bikers who ride like idiots and 10 per cent who ride with any common sense. On city streets as well as highways bikers tend to the most reckless occupants of the road. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to verify that...but keep on living in your own delusional world if you like! |

Daily Horoscope for December 24
Aquarius
Keep calm and all will be well. You're feeling slightly fraught because there are so many demands on your time, and it won't help if you're trying to juggle some last-minute chores with some fun-filled social events. Get others to lend you a hand, or tell yourself that perfection is not an option right now and that you'll have to scale down your preparations accordingly.
