You can do everything right, but you still have an infinitely higher chance of getting killed because of other people, so yeah. Holy fucking LOL at a motorcyclist blaming other drivers Sorry but the portion of reckless motorcyclists is >>>>>>>>>>>>> that of car drivers. I'm not at all exaggerating when I say that proportion is close to 50%, by which I mean every other motorcyclist I see on the road is swerving in and out of traffic, going 20mph over, etc. Guy just last week almost caused me to hit him; there's an exit from one highway to another where you have a short amount of time to cross over two lanes and get to an exit of another highway. I'm in front, motorcyclist behind me. I of course flip on my blinker well in advance to indicate I'm changing lanes ASAP. I make my way over one lane, and as I begin to make my way over to the next one, I see (and hear) him fucking flying up my left side, causing me to have to swerve back into the middle lane so I don't hit him. A crude drawing for visual purposes. I should note that one gray line = one lane, as opposed to three lines only looking like two lanes. It's early, I'm tired. Point being, this was literally last week. Motorcyclists are proportionately far more reckless than car drivers. Also StucklnMyPants posted... you still have an infinitely higher chance of getting killed because of other people, so yeah.
