[QUOTE="SacramentoMike, post: 1407408, member: 11508"] Right off the top of my head, the only thing that kind of jumped out was how general it all was. Most of the ideas discussed apply to every driver on the road, whatever vehicle they're in. They should have spent more time identifying things that would apply specifically and solely to motorcycles and worked on approaches and solutions to those issues. Didn't see much of that, though they did mention tar snakes (p. 8), something that a car driver never notices or thinks about at all. But they didn't mention sand left behind after winter ice melts, for example. "Prohibitive signs"--really? LIke "Stop?" [I]Everybody [/I]has to stop. And follow speed limits. I'd rather see signs saying "Motorcycles Allowed in HOV Lane," or (at least in California) "Motorcycle Lane Splitting is Legal." I just wondered after reading this thing, how many actual motorcycle riders were in the study group? [/QUOTE]
