{Time to generalize}
I have no time for motorcyclists who complain that cars and trucks cut them off and pay them no respect. I believe a few of your brethren are making it tough on all of you. Just the other day during rush hour on the DVP, there were two separate incidents where I wanted to clothesline these dudes off their hogs.
The first guy, who is obviously way too important to wait like the rest of us plebes in traffic, decides to drive on the shoulder. Obviously, a family member is in the hospital on their last breath and he must get there in a matter of seconds. What else could it be? Impatience? No, this guy was someone!
The second dufus, just minutes after seeing the shoulder-driving dude, is driving in between lanes while the rest of us are stopped. More than likely, he is late for his ceremony — probably being knighted or crowned as king.
I'm not saying that all accidents involving motorcycles are their fault, but follow the laws of the road (they're not guidelines to be interpreted by you) and you might save a life ... like your own!
While I'm needling bad drivers on two wheels, what gives bicyclists the special permit to not stop at red lights and stop signs. Are we not using the same road with the same applicable rules?
Obviously I'm no friend of bad and inconsiderate drivers and this concludes my rant. Back to your regularly scheduled road rage.
