MOTORCYCLISTS

Ok, be honest, how many motorcyclist have you met that is actually aware, or is taking steps in ensuring their own safety on the road? I bet, most of your answers would be zero to a small percentage. I personally have seldom met any.

Just this morning as I way on my way to work in the wee hours of the morning, I met one of this nincompoops. He was as usual (I wonder where they learn to drive like this) in the middle of the road, driving like a snail. I being impatient, and also at a much faster speed (FYI, don't think I was speeding, the speed I was driving was 65km/h) then him flashed him to get out of the way as the road was quite narrow.

He as usual ignored, and went on leisurely on his way still in the middle of the road. I was then thinking, how long would this fool last, with his kind of stupidity. This is of course a common sight and experience for most motorist who are driving cars.

The main problem to me is the law that supposedly wrongs the car drivers if any accident involving motorcycles happen. If I go by my personal experiences with them, I can only conclude that at least 95% of the time, the problem lies with the motorcyclists themselves. These people simply couldn't care less about the law or of their own safety.

The main cause of accidents with them are their foolishness in trying to squeeze and weave when it is clearly not advisable to do so. Furthermore, this habit of driving in the middle of roads must be stopped, and to make matters worse they normally would prefer to stick to the righter (fast/overtaking) most lanes.

In conclusion, I can only say good luck to this jokers and may god bless you if you continue this. Know this for a fact, you only survive because the cars are looking out for you but one day, your luck may change and meet the "devil".
