Some older drivers I have seen in Florida seem to have forgotten what a stop sign or light means. 
There are constant dangers, such as the ones you and I mentioned and also wildlife too.
I certainly don't envy you riding a motorcycle there. The good news is you have identified and recognize these dangers and can take whatever precautions you need to, consistent with your own safety. No one can predict the unknown. The Motorcycle safety courses help to mitigate those dangers by searching ahead for potential dangers and conditioning your own responses to those dangers. Statistics seem to indicate they have had a positive effect but no system is perfect.
Stay safe and well on your Motorcycle, Gorpet.   [/QUO
You didn't tell me what will be the consequences of young people who don't have a drivers licenses, no insurance and by their reckless actions kill people. What should we do with them ? |
Life in front of a firing squad springs to mind.
