    There's nothing quite like the sound of 4000 motorcycles riding through the city, as we did today, taking toys to childrens' hospitals (many of the kids have cancer and other serious illnesses) and it was a fun day out for everyone!

    How about the all time moronic custom of driving at night with headlights off.

    Political Correctness is a doctrine, recently fostered by a delusional, illogical minority and promoted by a sick mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a piece of shit by clean end!

    I can confirm that the SMIDSY is effective because people pulling out in front of me is my biggest worry. Many pull out from the right without even looking, or they are on the phone!

    First collision: Car was at fault.

    Second collision: Motorcyclist practicing “lane filtering” was at fault.

    I hope neither was hurt as badly as it looks.

    I would have thought they were looking at the accident ahead, and should've slowed down or stopped at least

    Could be a case of object fixation as well.

    Silly arses in the car were to blame for both.
