Round my way (in my heart/head, that is), fast moving heavy machinery have no business around human flesh. They just don’t mix, period.

As Seth Meyers said, “Motorcycles are the cigarettes of transportation.”
Doesn’t really matter how careful the motorcyclist is. He’ll be just as dead when a car runs him over because that driver wasn’t careful.

…which is why we learn how to see them coming and dodge.
I’ve got over twenty years as an everyday urban motorcyclist; never broken a bone, never spilt a drop of blood.
It can be done with a reasonable degree of safety, but it is much more operator-dependent than a car that’s loaded with airbags and crumple zones. Agility only protects you if you’re alert enough to use it.

Driving neither car nor motorcycle, I’ve always thought of the motorcyclists ≡ organdonors thing as unfair. Although cognizant of its primary function as rueful hospital humour, wouldn’t it would be fairer to equate cardrivers with organtakers? Not much use to a hospital I suppose.
