Default Motorcycle Awareness

As I was looking on youtube this morning I found this video about motorcycle awareness. Everytime I see something like this it makes me ride a little safer so I thought I would share it with everyone here. The video does move a little fast with a lot of reading but is well worth the watch. I had to use the pause button a few times to keep up.

Ride safe everyone and remember most of the time you have to worry about how everyone else is driving not how you are riding.......

This lowers my already low opinion of my fellow human beings when I think that the self-centered, self-important, gutless, moron that hit the guy's handlebarsdidn't evenstop (or even slow down) to see if he had caused an accident.

I certainly hope the A$$holegot to work (or where ever they were going) on time.

I saw it a month or so ago, and can't watch it again. About the worse thing I have ever seen. Does make you more aware when you are on the road.
