I have friends who prefer cars, and others who are more of a biker themselves hehe. I personally prefer car because they're more comfortable, and specially because they are safer.
The main problem i see with bikes is that any possible incident on the road can bring really serious consequences, no matter if the incident is your fault or not.

That's why I would never buy a motorcycle to my kids. Once they could afford them by themselves and became adults it'd be up to them, but I find them too dangerous to buy one to them.

What do you think? am I exaggerating? Do you prefer cars or motorcycles and why?

I prefer cars, because I really want 4 wheels under me instead of 2 and i like having a roof over my head. It gets very hot here in the summer time also, so we really need the air conditioning in the cars. I am disabled and can not even ride a bicycle let a lone a motorcycle, so it would never be a good idea for me. My back would be killing me.To me cars are much safer.

I definitely prefer a car. Yes a lot of advantages of the motorcyles, low price, low gas, fast during traffic, etc.. but it's way too risky and could really cause your life. Isn't life more important than vehicles? or money? So we've got to protect it, even if we have to spend more for the car, if it is safer, why not. That's my thoughts.

I think it nonsense to choice which you prefer ,two tools are important for our life . If you are student you can't afford a car ,so you should buy a car when you go to a place that is far away your home . In reality, a lager of people died in traffic accidents everyday. So I think it not safe for us .And it bad for our environment . But when I go to work and live far away from my office ,I will consider to buy a car or take bus.

You are not exaggerating at all. I prefer cars myself for the safety aspect. My hubby used to own a motorcycle, but it was before I met him. And needless to say he did have a bad accident from it. Any body I know who has ever owned one has gotten rid of it after an accident....

Car is safer than motorcycle. In motorcycle, only 2 or 3 persons can ride on but on cars 5-6 persons depending on the model or brand. Motorcycle are prone to accidents.

Motorcylcles might have some advantages in heavy traffic. If you are working for a delivery company, then you will have to be a good motor-cycle rider because they usually pay too much attention on the delivery duration. If you have a motorcycle then you can take so many risks (even risk your life for them) and deliver the goods on time. this is what they are looking for actually.

however, I strongly believe driving a car would be much safer. Even on the situations which you don't have any faults your car might protect you from death while a motorcylcle is more vulnerable to the accidents and also would be more dangerous in case of a traffic accident.

And there are many "adventerous" people out there and they are riding their motorcycles without head protection. While the motorcycle accidents are already deadly to the people who protect themselves properly, I just can't understand the ones who can do it without proper protection... I think motorcycle licences should be given a little harder.

Well I can't even drive my car anymore cos I couldn't control the pedals if my back were in spasm and cos my left leg is too weak with muscle damage but I do think a car is safer and more versatile! 2 of my brothers and their wives all have their motorbike license and own bikes that they love to go out on - sometimes even going off for a weekend together! I used to love getting on my brothers bike with him but can't manage it now! My 6 year old daughter asked me just last week if she could have a bike when she is older and I told her she had to be responsible and prove she could drive responsibly and we would see what happened! It is all my brothers fault as he let her sit on his motorbike - while it was stationery of course - and she idolises him! lol xxx

I prefer a car over a motorcycle because I feel that they are safer, but the way gas prices are going everyone may have to start looking at alternative forms of transportation.
