When i se a motorcycle. I wave to them half the time and let them have theyre fun.

my dad commuties from walnut creek to sfo almost every night and i've heard so many stories of how people tailgate him or other riders on the highway. really, i'm sure its said over and over on any motorcycle fourm but these are real peoples lives that get messed with out there. i'm really sorry to see that happen to the guy in roseville. on the other hand as a driver i've seen a fair share of "stunt/ squid riders" on the roads and highways. it really bugs me to see 2 riders on the highways doing 100+ then slow down to ride a wheelie just cause they can. it gives sportbike riders a bad image and i'm sure it reflects or insurance as well.

reading the report did the rider crash into the driver? was it like a rider error?

btw the exit from hwy 65 to the roseville mall is a speed trap cause of how the off ramp is if you're not watching your speed or the signs, theres usally an officer watching you!

The old lady made a left, and probably cut him off. he could have been going too fast to stop, or get out of the way. Could be both, at fault.

with all the texting, cellphones, it's just gonna get worst. and plus, holidays are around us guys, watch out... esp. x-mas. granny's are out. soccer moms are in a hurry. drunk ass drivers.
