Nothing new (second story is odd though)

To start off I figure I should just shove my thoughts in a single post to make responses easier to track.
This story is actually the first to revoke someone's driving privilege in a state permenantly for a DWI and manslaughter. Too bad the sentencing wasn't enough.

This is one where a bike gets a ticket for running a red light during a charity ride. Apparently having police escorts weren't enough and those traffic cameras aren't doing much good:

And a stupid cager causing another accident which may put motorcycles under much more scrutiny. This is tied along with a lone motorcycle accident elsewhere. This pretty much sums up why I don't participate in many group rides.

This is place ain't gettin' any better, believe me. I actually started riding a bit less due to more inattentive idiots managing to pass the licensing exams. I had a Ray Charles impersonator nearly rear end me because he was looking side to side while proceeding foward. Didn't stop me from adding 836 miles this week to the odometer though...
'k g'night.
