Can't help hating motorcycles...

Motorcycles is just like flies on the street now. Not too many are following traffic rules and most of them riding motocycles the way they want and much less care to others. I just repainted my car a few weeks ago with my own money as insurance did not cover it and this morning a motorcycle just bumped into the back of my car and run away leaving a deep-long scratched on the surface! I hate them more from time to time. I certainly hope that you do not feel the same...

Statistics show that more cars hit motorcycles, as opposed to motorcycles hitting cars. If you talk to a lot of bikers, which I am one, there is a lot of hatred for "cagers" (car drivers).

Not in my country - Indonesia. I was a biker also once and I just wonder nowadays not many bikers obey the traffic rules, at least in my country. Thanks for sharing.

those who travel by car will surely hate the bikes on the roads, but if ever u rode bike on the roads before u bought the cars, then, u wouldn't be feeling the same way as u r at present...well, there's a lot of difference between how bike riders think and how car owners think... bikers think that all the traffic is sluggish and he starts for his work late, and tries to manage the delay with his speed on the roads, whereas those who drive by car start early and try to go by the rules, but i think the frustration levels are the same when, either the car forced to stop suddenly by a bike skidding to take a side in the front, or by a bike stopped for seemingly an endless time behind a car which is trying to take a turn and blocking the whole turn... thats how it goes, we can blame nobody and we have to learn to be patient. thats all...of course, its difficult when damage occurs due to others' recklessness...

In fact, I did ride motorbike and still do occasionally but I guess you are right, patient is the answer even though it's difficult most of the time.

I hate them too. I travel during peak hour on a major road and they are forever darting in and out of the traffic squeezing in between cars and passing on the wrong side.

Exactly. That's what I experienced. Thanks!
