Is it too easy for tourists to come here and kill people?

Please see my earlier post. The only person mentioning "give way" is you. Adjusting speed & road position to avoid a potential SMIDSY is basic road skills.

Are you on medication for a hormonal disorder?

Here is a pic of Cassina flying into an intersection at breakneck speed of 50km/h in a 100km/h zone with his back wheel locked up and suddenly realising that following his own invaluable advice things were about to go very pear shaped.

Most people cant not read minds but if they could I agree the accident would not have happened.

Allowing for not having crystal balls I find giving myself more time & space, integral elements to seeing the future, helps a lot in collision avoidance.

Are you on medication? I'm sure something is available to fill in the grey scale between black & white. Maybe even primary colours could become visible. Like the ones used in traffic lights.

Ban cars.

Only for you in your big tank because you have no ability to anticipate & believe might is right.

Why do you ride a motorcycle?

I hate to say it, but yeah.

So if you were the judge in this case you would charge the guy in the right for not giving way??? You have a real sick attitude if you ask me.[/QUOTE]

Your thinking is perverted. Never at ANY stage have I said or suggested ... that other driver should be charged. But every driver/rider has a MORAL obligation to avoid/prevent an accident happening. It is on his/her conscious if they do not. It was not the tourists that were killed. The people (locals) that died were in the vehicle that was (apparently) in the right. But ... THEY'RE STILL DEAD. Had that driver slowed or stopped ... those three might still be alive.

Fanciful thinking really is your thing ... good luck with that ...

You would describe the act of self preservation (by giving way.. whilst having right of way) UNHINGED .. ???

But unlike you the driver with the right of way did not have the ability to read the other drivers mind. Lack of mind reading ability is a killer eh!!![/QUOTE]

You can't even quote post in the forums properly ... and you expect us to take you seriously as someone with some degree of intelligence.

A big FAIL in both regards ...

Yup, lack of telepathy ranks right up there with a lack of common sense as one of the biggest killers on our roads. Statistically proven on KB by relevant post count tonight.

Go on. Tell me, please. What do you get out of riding a motorcycle?
