Getting a bad rap ? and getting justicePosted by Felix Luois on November 13th, 2018
It’s fair to say large segments of society take a rather dim view of people who ride motorcycles. Bikers have had a pretty bad reputation over the years, thanks to depictions in the media, films, and certain biker gangs that have a criminal element to them.
Motorcycles are also seen as being inherently dangerous vehicles. Riders are seen as being reckless and dangerous, too. Unfortunately, there’s a lot of misinformation based on ugly stereotypes and the actions of a rogue minority.
Every time a motorcyclist goes out on the road and causes trouble it makes every decent biker look bad. It makes local law enforcement less friendly, and it may actually put the lives of other bikers at risk, as motorists are quicker to anger when it comes to mistakes made by people on bikes.
Here are some basic tips on how to be a responsible motorcyclist.
Motorcyclists are, for the majority of the time, safe and courteous drivers. They need to be, because they’re so exposed on the road. Motorcyclists know that good driving keeps them as safe as possible. When motorcyclists are in an accident, the first thing they need to do (besides attending to any injuries, of course) is hire an experienced personal injury lawyer.
