I know I'm not conditioned to see the following:
- Bikes coming up between me and the car on my right as I'm passing the car.
- Bikes roaring up the breakdown lane.
- Bikes weaving in and out of traffic at high speeds.
- Bikes traveling towards me on my side of the road.
Yeah, gee -- must be my fault for not being able to see all these events. BTW, I experienced all but the last one this past week.
When bikers begin to follow the laws of the road, there will far fewer motorcycle accidents.
