Question

just having a feeling that when people drive their car,they leave their brain at home.The make unsafe lane changes,don't look for anyone else.Just curious Agree,disagree

Answer 1

Bad drivers should have their cars crushed and replaced with a bicycle. Bad cyclists usually get their bikes crushed ( by the bad drivers ) and sometimes lose their limbs.There should be more stringent testing and education for all road users.

Answer 2

I agree with your statement. Unfortunately when you make driving/cars available and 'necesary' to everyone, many people who should never get behind the wheel do just that. They have no sense of traffic flow, importance of observation, or even simple physics. Sometimes I despair.

That being said, not many things on the road have ever frightened me as badly as this young kid on a 600-series Honda bike passing me doing over twice the speed limit on the back wheel only, while wearing only a fluttering t-shirt and jeans.

Answer 3

Hi,

I ride my bike around alot and yes there are lots of inconsiderate drivers. But there are also alot of inconsiderate riders out there too - when i am driving i am more aware of riders, but this is probaly because i ride alot.

It comes down to the fact most people lack common sense. and safe driving/riding skills.

There are lots of bad drivers and riders on the road. Mainly because they are selfish and think they own the road.

Answer 4

I learned a long time ago that if i'm paying attention to my own business that I won't notice what I perceive to be others bad habits.

Answer 5

You are correct. It's largely the DMV's fault for virtually handing out licences instead of actually testing people's driving skill. Just keep your helmet on and try to survive the retards.

Answer 6

I agree! When I started riding, my friend told me to pretend every car and truck was trying to kill me! Turns out, he wasnt kidding!

Answer 7

Agree, people really dont care in today's world they are more interested in getting to their location at any cost to themselves or others.

Answer 8

motorcycles are hard to see--most people are looking for larger objects --like a car or truck---they don't even see you----it's best to have your head light on---and  ride toward the side of the road rather than close to the center line---because if they don't see you and pass a vehicle--you could get hit head on----riding toward the edge leaves more sight for oncoming traffic to see you---i used to ride also--experience taught me--never assume they see you and don't figure you can get out of the way ---be ready to ditch at all times--
