I dont even want to Pretend to think about that happening to me...It's actually something I do when I'm at a red light...I try and look in my mirror and see who or what is behind me...But I'll say it once and Im gonna say it again.

Women get more of a break on car insurance because they say men are more aggressive drivers...and when you turn 25 you get a nice break on your already high insurance...because your supposed to be more responsible at that age.

Women drivers are the reason behind the majority of accidents that I've seen...I woulda smacked that bitch in the face when she asked me if I was ok.

I'm thinking whiplash. Depending on the weight of his helmet I'm guessing there was some strain in the neck.


Hopefully there wont be any of the "I didn't see him" shit. Even if he wasn't there, she was going to wreck into the SUV.

I'm thinking more like compression fracture of the spine, the way he got bucked up and off the bike.

At least a "get out of my bubble" elbow... It looks like she touched him... I probably would have floored her if she put her hands on me...

This is why I always split to the front when cars stop.

And a Gixxer rider wearing a jacket gloves AND boots. I'm impressed.

Yeah so is speeding, wheeling and racing on mountain roads. Are you going somewhere with this?

Personally, I don't see a reason to commute via motorcycle unless you are doing it for the gas mileage or you get to split lanes. Stopping behind cars makes you a sitting duck IMO, so the fuel economy savings better offset the risk.
