I know the girl, and I had the chance to see pictures from her accident. If that :censor: doesn't give you goose pumps when you see it, you're not human. She wasn't at-fault, they fail to mention that in the report for obvious reasons. It's the same agenda over and over again: motorcyclists have no regards for traffic laws.

Does anyone care about our POV? About car drivers that turn left right in front of us, one of which almost killed my friend. Or about drivers that change lanes without due care? No one seems to give a :censor: about that side of the story, and instead of raising awareness, the media goes back to the same-old BS.

The lack of consideration for motorcycles has forced me to stop riding in city traffic.  Biking is now a weekend only activity that happens on rural roads.
No place I'd rather be...
