Good thing you were NOT riding a 500 Kaw, faster and way more trouble making.

At one point the cops actually towed mine away!
I had just returned to the world and was somewhat wild & crazy.
Not to worry!
I’m OK now and have the papers to prove it.

Typical average is 1,500 to 2,000 Euro, and if you were pretty stupid....toss on another 1,000.

Thanks for correctig my thinking, pepsionice! I put my wife and daughter through Driving School here in southern Germany. They both completed the course in record time (i.e., needed more attempts than practically anyone else). Put me back a pretty penny.

Some US states will yank the license of anyone under 18 involved in an accident, whether at fault or not. That’s a pretty tough standard by today’s norms.
