Forum and Facebook topics: I hate motorcyclists!

Posted on 01:26 by Unknown
To each is his own... People, from both sides, hate each others driving/riding habits...

These are the things the we all love to hate, but in reality, they speak the truth somewhat...

In one of the talks I have done, I spoke about the millions of riders out there which grows by the minute...

In the millions, we, in the community of MCP are but a measly .5 - 1% of the entire population...

Within the .5 - 1%, only 25% of that knows the basic laws...

And of that 25%, only 5% really understand them...

And of those who understand them, only half or maybe less really follow the rules of the streets...

Sad yet true...

We see them daily, everywhere and on any type of vehicle...

Enforcement, instead of making sure that everybody is following the rules, sometimes encourage us to break them by letting vehicles counterflow, go even if the light is red, stop even if the light is green and what not... Then they say were un disciplined...

The providers of our licenses and registration, do not check whether an individual is fit to ride/drive or if the vehicle is road worthy...

And in these discussions and forums, the irony and the hypocrisy is just abundant...

I don't feel surprised nor do I feel bad when these discussions come out... Because, it speaks the truth...

Sometimes people ask us (MRO and MAP) on why we even waste our time in perusing our advocacy... I simply say, somewhere, someone still needs help and is willing to do the right thing... If not us, then who?

Good day fellow riders...
