Wearing Helmets to save your head from trauma while riding a crotch rocket at speeds of 60 MPH or higher usually ends up doing nothing more than saving time for the coroner when he doesn't have to search for pieces of your brains and skull after the accident.

I think the biggest problem most motorcyclists have is they don’t drive defensively enough. They ride as if they have a right to the road and, dammit, they are going to exercise that right!

I can’t tell you how many times I have seen motorcyclists ride too close behind a vehicle or suddenly switch lanes without adequately, imo, having checked to see if they can do it safely.

Technically speaking, motorcyclists do have a right to the road, but if they practiced all the common sense safety tips, most of the accidents would be completely avoided.

I do ride a scooter myself, but I always ride defensively. I do not trust other drivers.
