    Hahaha

    Sounds the perfect road to hold a protest ride to a place where people are more concerned about what happens in they own backyard than anything else.

    Go the..... stupor...city....

    If you can't learn to avoid being a victim of somebody else's stupidity then you should give up riding.

    You should give up riding because you are a victim of your own stupidity, and it's only a matter of time before you move on from maiming canines to people.

    I bet you they'd wished their loved one recognised their own deficiency and stopped riding.

    I also know people who have had their beloved pets killed by muppets like you, any guesses what they'd like to say to you?

    Wow I must of had two many beers is cassina agreeing with someone??..

    If you two would like to be alone just let us know!.lol.

    My own views I would never let anyone let alone a stranger through an act of their own stupidity have that much power over me and my emotions as to stop me doing something that I enjoy that gives me happiness.Almost taking my life or not.

    Learners who give up though fault of their own or others will always be left wondering what if?

    Live you life in fear of the "lotto results" not being in your favor because of what you have experienced is not living at all its a mere existence in fear of what others may do to you again or may do to you.

    My guess would be..

    "Sorry, I lost control of my stupid bloody animal/robot & unlawfully allowed it run out into your way & to crash in to you - on the public thoroughfare,
    & I will - of course compensate you for the damages done, for which I am quite properly legally & morally responsible/liable.."

    Yeah, that'll 'bout do it, I reckon..

    Public thoroughfare? These happen on driveways and farm tracks too. They also happen with kids. Liable?

    If you are "in charge" of said machine/animal/minor, then of course, - you are properly liable for their whereabouts & conduct...

    Funny... That was exactly how the conversation went with the farmer owner of the straying dog after I cleaned her up as she popped up out of a roadside drain into the path of the car I was in doing 100kms on the open road at the time.(Only time I hit a dog by the way lol) before he told me he took full responsibility as she "Strayed to the boys place across the road all the time" and had liability insurance to cover the damage to my car.

    Farken lucky I was not on the DR at the time.....we both might have made it or not.

    Big dog old car repair cost Wrote the car off....lol.

    Just as the motorist is properly liable to drive/ride in a safe manner.

    And for some, that can only be achieved by putting their licence back in the cereal box...

    Nobody asks you for shit, yet it still spews forth.

    Stop trying to hide behind the 'technically not my fault' facade. The inability to avoid incident was your fault, only the dogs being the in the area was the owners fault.

    So if you were on a nice straight piece of road with 200meters plus good visual going 50kms with no on coming traffic and seen a dog sitting in the middle of your lane not moving you would prob hit it not go around because it was your "Legal right" and it was the "Owners own silly fault" it was there?..

    Prob the dogs fault too for not having a good grasp of the road rules I guess FFS.

    It comes down to pure circumstances and the choices we make during these are always going to be different because we are all different people.

    Lol funny enough (I heard) a term originally coined by Farmers in the NZ because of the large and fast nature of the bike 200 and 600/650 engines being unsuitable for farm use that would "Root" their working dogs running behind trying to keep up.
