Approach each ride like it could be your last.
It's the fault of the cops, you see, no measure of responsibility lies on the two dorks speeding on the bikes.

If what I just wrote made you sad or angry,
it was probably just a joke.
Not quite a Darwin Award but very close.
Nope, not the Sukys' fault, has to be someone else to blame.
Of course they are, their two little angels would never drive like that to the church they were headed to.
And they certainly can't take the State Troopers word for it when there is so much potential money at stake in the legal lottery system they just got a ticket to now...
Two brothers were killed in near simultaneous motorcycle crashes, Maryland Transportation Authority Police said.
Suky Aming Heureaux, 25, and Suky Shamil Heureaux, 24, both of Landover, died of injuries suffered in the crashes Sunday night on Interstate 895, said Cpl. Jonathan Green, a police spokesman.
The agency learned from state police Sunday night that a trooper was following at least one motorcyclist on Interstate 95 who then exited onto I-895. Moments later, transportation authority police received calls from motorists reporting crashes on a highway off-ramp, Green said.
The brothers lost control while trying to negotiate the exit from I-895 and were thrown onto the ground below the elevated ramp, Green said.
A trooper had tried to stop a group of motorcycles after clocking them at 100 miles per hour on northbound I-95 near Route 32. Two pulled over, but the trooper continued after a third with lights and sirens on, said state police spokeswoman Elena Russo.
With the motorcycle weaving in and out of traffic, the trooper lost sight of the motorcyclist before reaching the tunnel, Russo said. Moments later, toll employees told the trooper about two motorcycle crashes about a mile north of the tunnel exit. Police do not know where the other motorcyclist came from, Russo said.
The motorcycle the trooper was trying to stop was later found to have been stolen, Russo said.
State police said the trooper followed the third motorcyclist, but did not engage in a high-speed pursuit.
The trooper, James Davis, did not request permission to initiate a high-speed pursuit and appears to have followed state police policies, state police spokesman Arthur Betts told The Washington Post.
The father of the two brothers, meanwhile, questioned police accounts of the moments leading up to the crash.
"They tell me they were racing, that's all they tell me," Maximo Heureaux, 45, who shared his Landover home with his sons, told The Washington Post. "I don't believe the police; nobody here believes the police. We all need to know what really happened."
Both named Suky. What’s up with that?
I'm trying to figure out what nationality those names are. Does anyone know?

Sorry but given the number of idiot drivers on the road, motorcycle riders seem to have little regard for their own safety. Most of the riders I see don’t even wear a helmet.
