    People from all walks of life screw up at times, they make mistakes. (yes, big ones).

    Luckily the rest of are not that type and will never make a mistake eh.
    You ever watched the show on prime TV on sunday nights called Mayday? When pilots make errors and fly planes into the ground, they dont just get a slap on the wrist and continue flying. Major, MAJOR shit happens. Cockpits get redesigned, operating procedures change, Millions of dollars get spent to try and make the system work in such a way that incidents do not re-occur.

    Yes, i take on board what your saying about the fact that people are human, and that things happen, and no one is perfect, nor will any amount of money bring the dead rider back, but $250 is just insulting. For such an astronomical lapse of judgement, a pilot (if he survived the crash) would have his license revoked, and pretty much never be allowed to be in control of an aircraft again.

    Huh! You seem to think that we know nothing. This is to tell you that we, in fact, know damn all....
    Do you realise how many holes there could be if people would just take the time to take the dirt out of them?

    When I was a little younger I always looked at an accident / incident to allocate blame.
    I haven't attended a defensive driving course recently but the one I attended changed my thinking to looking forward, and working out how an accident could have been prevented taking all factors into account.

    Going fast into a blind corner or over a blind crest is more often done by an immature (addreneline overriding consequences) rider that makes me look like a nana rider even if I feel I am riding at my comfortable limit.

    This isn't the first and won't be the last insulting sentence handed down.

    I've just read an article which stated that complaints against judges in NZ have increased by 60% in the past year.
