Why is fast food and smoking cigarettes legal? Motorcycles have a more practical purpose than both. Either one kills more people every year than die in motorcycle accidents. Neither have "safety gear" you can strap on.

I feel like fast food has more practical use than a motorcycle, just not the best ,method of achieving what it accomplishes.

Not really IMO. It exists because it's more flavorful than the other options. There are plenty of foods that are just as quick and easy to make and just as cheap. Maybe if it was only really utilized by people who were traveling or for some reason couldn't get home to cook or even just microwave food, but the majority drive a few blocks to get it, then either eat it there, or take it back home with them.

Only does that for me when I've logged out or clicked the thread.

As I literally never log out (my computer runs 24/7 and I always leave shroomery and yahoo [my email] open, only time I have to log back in is when I need to restart) it's never really been an issue for me.

Im always logged in too. Anytime i click a thread title it shoots me to either the last page, or sometimes the middle pages. Really annoying.

:shrug: Dunno why. Anytime I click on a thread, if I haven't opened it, it starts me at post 1. The only time it does otherwise is when I've already opened the thread, then it starts off at the reply directly after the last one I read.

I do have a work around for you because I've done it on accident a couple of times. Open the thread, close it instantly, and open it again. That always puts me at the OP as well.

My buddy was turning left into a gas station when a motorcycle blew a red light and t boned him, both drivers dead instantly and he has to live with it. This happened just yesterday.

And thats why i drive like everyone is trying to kill me and themselves.

I dont have anything against motorcycles but I dont see why they are legal to drive for safety reasons. It's a law that you have to wear a seat belt when being inside a car whether you're the driver or a passanger, but they just let people drive an unenclosed vehicle with zero safety features? I dont think motorcyclists are even required to wear a helmet! Shit is strange to me  :shrug:




Since I have been riding I've become a much better car driver. Riding a cycle or a scooter teaches you to not take anything for granted. You learn to keep your eyes wide open all the time.

Because the motorcycle lobby is huge.  Money talks.  There's no sans seat belt lobby, but the insurance companies have a lot of money.

Wouldn't the world be safer if fewer people rode them, though? Or at least the people who used to ride them would be safer.

The world would be safer if people didn't drive like assholes, regardless of the vehicle. I get so tired of seeing motorcycles blow past me going 90+ or weave in and out of traffic. They're putting everyone around them at risk in addition to themselves. The same can be said for regular drivers who do similar shit.

The world would be safer if more people rode motorcycles. To me they have always seemed to be the most practical form of transportation aside from maybe a bus or rail system. The better question is why are cars legal?

I like motorcycles:shrug: It's someones choice to put themselves in danger then let them. It's legal to be a police officer, to go in the military, and to skydive, and those are equally if not more dangerous.

I don't think that people are riding motorcycles because they're good for the environment.

Actually, why do people ride motorcycles, besides doing cool tricks?

They're cool, they save gas, and they are honestly a rush compared to driving in a car. They don't have to be good for the enviroment, jst good for saving money.
