Default Drive carefully...

Motorcycle guys specially, respect what you are riding and remember its not if you will fall its when you will fall and what the consequences are. I was driving back and right around Sideling Hill on 68 in MD I saw a bunch of cop cars just blow by me. A few hundred feet ahead and I was one of the first few cars there, a bike rider had wrecked at over 80 mph and the helicopter was landing to take away what remained of him. The guy on the bike blew my doors off a dozen miles or so back, I was going 70 and he was gone in the blink of an eye.

I have no pity for people like this, he got what he deserved. He obviously had no regard for human life. What if he had killed others in the process?

Speed kills, true story.

I respect bikers if they are respectable. I often give them a nod or thumb up and a smile and they return it. But some bikers think they own the road and drive like nuts.


RIP to that dude...

I'm sure he deserved to die for driving fast, and i'm sure you never run a light, or speed up during a yellow.

Oh oh, and the festive backroad driving. A drive faster than the speed limit, is also unheard of in your book.
