who died in singlevehicle
crashes in 2003
had BAC levels 0.08

Wow really good info. Heres what I take from it...

<FONT SIZE="4"> DONT DRINK AND RIDE.....EVER</FONT>

Always wear your helmet and gear

CONSTANTLY screen for vehicles turning left in front of you

Ride in North Dakota or Vermont

Do you guys think NY is so high because of the city?

My uneducated opinion is that yes it is high population density in a small area = lots of bumping.

I wrote a 23-page persuasive paper last semester on why motorcycles aren't as dangerous as they're made out to be, and while my internet's being uber ghey right now, i'm sure that confirms everything my other 15 sources said.

And iono bout the rest of y'all, but when i'm drunk and i just look at my bike, i'm like noooooooooope, i can't even tip that thing off the stand right now....:bomb chic walks past:

Hey!!!!!!!
