Bikers please stop for the red lights like the cars do and stop riding down the center of two lines of cars. Also it might help if you picked roads with shoulders and remember you are going 45 miles slower than those you are competing for space on the highway with.
The pat I liked was where it said the biker laid the bike down. thats hat all the motorcyclists claim they laid it down. Mostly the car does the laying down of the bike.

My state lane splitting is illegal, so I don't do it. It should be legal because it is much safer for the bike to go on ahead and get away from all the oblivious cagers. It also frees up one more space in clogged traffic. You would if you could.
Secondly, only a very small percentage of bikers show off like hooligans on the streets. They are idiots and I will bet they have never been down, that's why they act like that.
And speaking of a bike going down, heres a physics lesson. The gyroscopic affect of the wheels rolling along with the steering input is what keeps the bike upright and balanced. Stop the wheels (say, as in a braking lock down)and the gyroscopic effect is gone. Bike falls over.
