    I think I will apply for a study so I can be remunerated for saying what common sense would tell me. Duh!

      Do you need a partner in that venture?

        Perhaps! We could just make up some stuff. You know what! We could do a study that says that if you eat fried foods and a gallon of ice cream a day, you will be obese in a year.

    What so sad is I took this class in Syracuse a dozen years ago, and they specifically tell you no passengers for several years. Riding with a passenger on the back is completely different and requires experience. So what this article tells me is not only are there idiots driving cars, they’ve now turned to motorcycles!!!

      What is also sad is the growing statistic of accidents caused by driver inattention. People are so addicted to cell phones and trying to text while driving, they are doing all kinds of dumb things. I would bet some motorcycle drivers are doing the same thing. They have no clue what is going on around them.

    As an agent, rider for 40+ years, and an instructor I can tell you with certainty that potential riders should always take the course first before buying the bike and forming any bad habits. Invariably, the ones “returning to riding” are the ones who have already developed bad habits that sometimes are hard to overcome, including being egotistical(sp).

    This man must also be a novice at physics if he thinks he was merely lucky that his bike didn’t fall over while he was doing 50 miles an hour. LOL.

      This man would look worse than the Arkansas football coach after his cycle accident. Of course, we know he was distracted by his cute little blonde assistant riding with him. No big deal. Lost his job, career, $2.5 million home.
