• Stopping distance for motorcycles is nearly the same as for cars,

What kind of 'bus' are you riding???? 'Most' motorcycles stop much more rapidly than cars.

ah motorists, what a group huh, it's hard enough when in a car I have to use ESP to guess if some idiot is going to change lanes esp on three lanes since so many people have never heard of turn signals, sorry men are the worst for it, I've got turn signals so engrained I signal at times when it is unnecessary, yeah so what...

when I was a teenager, we had friends who got severely injured when a driver changed lanes and didn't see them so I've been extra aware of motorcyclists then and now that both my brothers and my sister have bought their middle aged crisis Harley's, I continue to be extra aware in fact I was sitting a red light in my car and saw my sister tooling down the intersecting street and some bitch drove out in front of her from a parking lot at the last possible moment, which she anticipated, but as a new driver, her heart was racing after that, so was mine....
