I'll be honest, looking at the photos in the second link is almost enough to scare a guy away from buying his first bike.

Pretty scary, huh?? - that was an advert over here on UK tv - part of the ongoing "Think Bike" campaign.
There are several roadsigns out too, aimed at both Bikers and car drivers. The bike one have a graphic of a bike taking a corner racing-style, with a caption of "To die for?"

Like I have said elsewhere on this board, if this nationwide campaign saves the life of even ONE biker, it's got to be worth it!
