A $20 traffic ticket has been issued to a 92-year-old woman who drove across the center line in northeastern North Dakota and hit two of four motorcycles heading the other way, killing a newlywed riding with her husband, authorities said. Woman can't wait to get back behind the wheel to get to the casino.

Wow, a whole $20. Would love to hear the reason behind it.

I don't go to Sturgis because the North Dakota Congressman killed Randy Scott several years ago got 100 days for killing him. He was drunk and blew through a stop sign at 70mph. I figure if the folks want that kind of representation, my money should be spent elsewhere. Looks like nothing has changed, especially my mind...

I don't go to Sturgis because the North Dakota Congressman killed Randy Scott Karen, Sturgis is in South Dakota (As was Congressman Janklow).

(seems to be the mantality of it all)

A lady I am acquainted with hit a motorcyclist this week and put him in the hospital. Her statement was the usual, I didn't see him come over that hill...... Which is the result of not looking!!!! Or not looking good enough. I have at times pulled out in front of vehicles much larger that a motorcycle and said to myself, I sure didn't see him. In retrospect it could have been only a glance at best, If you look you will see.

As a rider, you can become a little more visible.
Have ya ever heard of the high beam switch.
Run the high beam all the time.
That low beam on some bikes is like a candle at 40 miles......
Check it out on a ride as to what the difference is between a hi and low beam. Amazing isnt it?
