Lecture? I don't think i was lecturing, but when I see a report like this I feel it is an opportunity to remind others to be aware. That is all. I realize there were no other motorists involved.

This is the one fo three

This is the one fo three Motorcycle Accidents I have heard about since Saturday afternoon! I saw the aftermath of this one, myself. PEOPLE, WE NEED TO PAY ATTENTION TO OTHER DRIVERS! I ride and I would HATE for someone to pull in front of me and say, "I didn't see him!" Every year, more and more motorcyclists are on the road. Especially with the cast of fuel rising. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE, I beg of you. Look two times instead on once. Please, for sake of us Riders and our friends and Families, watch for Motorcyclists. You could save our lives by being on the lookout for us. Thank you.
