I'm not saying the witness isn't right, just saying that chances are they weren't very accurate.
Additionally, one witness might say 50mph and another says 80. Guess which number's going on the news...

Yeah, no kidding. That's kind of what I got out of it - they assumed guilt (perhaps fairly so, but hard to say for sure) to be with the motorcycle and the auto driver was clearly just minding his own business.

News is certainly unbiased.

Didn't take long for someone to chime in with a story about how a biker was killed or maimed. Funny how nobody says shlt when someone asks about buying a sportscar. You don't have someone chime in and talk about the kid who killed himself by flipping his car and having his face ground off and his drowned in his own blood.

As a old guy biker I assume every cager is a low talent idiot who only got his license because he happened to have 25 dollars in his pocket when he was near a DMV. Quiz most on this board how many track days they done or what racing school they have attended and most will give you a blank look. But there all"good drivers" aren't they?

Let me guess, no leathers, no riding school, first fast bike. Big surprise.

Wouldn't be something to advertise
