Stupid Motorcyclist

[blacklabman]

But isn't that redundant.

Ealier today, while driving down Town Creek Drive in California, I spotted a motorcyclist driving along with a baseball cap on (backwards of course). Under his left arm he was holding a helmet. Now that's stupid. He deserves anything that happens to him. I just hope he doesn't hurt an innocent.

There isn't a helmet law here in Florida so I see alot of morons out there on the wrong without helmets. Bad thing is, they can barely drive there motorcycle.

The one thing that pisses me off is that these people will allow their very small children to ride with them (either front or back of motorcycle) and they don't even wear helmets! These parents need to be smacked!

For one,
mandatory helmets laws are like mandatory seatbelt laws, the government has not right to dictate to the people how they conduct their lives, as long as those people are not infringing on other peoples rights.

Now if the idiot wants to ride his bike that way then he assumes the risk and will pay the price if he crashes.

As far as putting young children on the bike, as long as you take all possible safety precautions for them, then there is nothing wrong with it, its a legal means of transportation.

The nanny state mentality of the government has to end.

Road rash get's them good no matter what speed they are going.

I scrapped one guy off the road when he dropped his bike going 95mph. He kept crying "Why didn't I have my leather on!" His jeans did nothing for him

Judging a person by the form of transportation they choose is ridiculous. Maybe the risks associated with riding a m/c are too high for you, fine, don't ride. But why must you impose your phobias, values, or whatever, on someone else, or a whole group of people by calling them stupid just because they aren't just like you?

Everytime I see a m/c go by where the rider is wearing less than full gear I say a quick prayer that they never have to find out what a poor decision I feel they've made, or experience the agony of road rash. Yes, they are responsible for the choices they make, just like all of us, I'm just glad I've never gotten everything I "deserve" for some of the poor choices in my life.

You know what I can't stand? I can't stand those riders that feel that they own the road and they MUST drive at 200+ mph pm a public road!
