We all take risks, every day. I'm very aware of the risks riding a cycle poses. Not your business mate.
I'm quoting this because it is the alternative to flaming you. You make yourself look very bad. Traumatizing someone in death is didn't for a reason? What a nasty thing to say. The roads are everyone's concern. They are so we can get here and there in a timely manner, not for entertainment. Not that driving can't be entertaining.

It would be nasty yeah, but I'm not taking any of this seriously, my government would never ban motorcycles. so: sorry 
Driving is all about entertainment for me. I can get anywhere I need to go on a bicycle anyway. But that is not the point, I just dislike that you judged something unsafe and wish to ban it.

I know they wouldn't. America is an overindulgent, ideological place.To me, you are a tightrope walker. If you fall, fuck you. It isn't my fault.
It isn't just that it is unsafe, it involves other people. God damn! If there were special roads, I wouldn't care. Oh wow, some morons crashes they'd open air high speed casket. That is their business then

There are down sides to societies that are too accepting of such activities in a public way. I've seen plenty of road carnage, first and second hand. Safety is bad and freedom is good though, every time. Fucking christ

It all seems safe until you make that mistake. You think we can just trust people to be safe? It all goes great, then you hit a slippery spot or miss something, because youn are a human and humans fuck up. It takes one mistake, that is it

Of course it happens with cars. People get stabbed too, but would you rather have a knife or a gun to defend yourself? Would you rather be hit with your biker cloths on, or in a well designed car? If you think it makes no difference, you are simply wrong.

Ya know, I've never seen a biker texting while riding. NEVER.
Driving while texting is certainly more dangerous than operating a motorcycle, at least in my neck of the woods.

Texting and driving is stupid, so is drunk driving. Do either and you deserve jail time. That is not the discussion we are having

I live in the Netherlands. I have no guns. And you see things too black and white, that is why you keep having to tell people that what they're saying is not relevant to the discussion, even though it totally is.
How old are you?

It isn't a nuanced issue. Do you want unsafe vehicles around while you drive to where you need to go, or not. I won't answer the age question, it is very insulting, not that it is something I'm hiding. You are just looking to invalidate what I say for arbitrary reasons. People are bringing up irrelevent things. We are talking about 'safe' drivers, not some chnts that abuse the privilege by drinking and texting.

The reality is that its more likely that a car driver will fuck up and ruin my life forever than the other way around. 5 min ago some bitch pulled out in front of me making a left hand turn from a stop sign. I was coming from her right on the cross street, indicating a left turn. This bitch was looking at her fucking phone, not the road, not looking both ways, she was on her fucking phone like it was important. If I wasn't on the ball, boom dead. This shit happens at least twice a day every day I ride. I even have high viz gear. But hi viz gear is useless if people are looking at their fucking phones.

When people try to use my age as a way to dismiss me, I will. I have gramdparents who wouldn't listen if I told them the time of day, because I'm not sixty. They can't even controlled diabetes, and they think my thoughts can't possibly be correct. So the age thing gets to me.Quote:

Even if all the motorcycle accidents were car drivers doing the wrong thing, the motorcycles gets fucked up and the driver now took a life. Some people won't get over that. I guess the motorcycle rider won't either. It's his right though, to ruin another person's life. It's like how morons get fat and then society pays for their shit life style.

It seems people are dismissing you because you'd end something they care about.

It's all about taking part if you wish, and not taking part if you don't.
Fuck everyone that would impose their will on others.
