You seem so hostile to a comment I made about riding predictably and safely. You also seem to misunderstand the thread of comments. I was replying to a person who had a hot take about leniency of the law toward motorcyclists who speed, not discussing the specific situation in the article. I am aware that inattentive and reckless drivers are a much larger problem, and provide a little commentary on that as well. I didn't intend to inflame anyone, we're having a discussion, and as a daily rider, I encourage everyone I ride with to be as safe as possible. I also tell every car driver I'm with to pay more attention and to be more aware.
