Hey, got a second...or ten?

Are my local TV stations proactive or reactive in reporting mc mishaps?

Cager pulls right out in front of sport biker who was returning from... a motorcycle safety class?

Local television reporters spend 5 minutes describing the "carnage", interviewing "instructors", and maybe, one or two "riders". Of the three stations I watch, one tv anchor was forthright in advising us that it was... "probably a good idea to leave the motorcycle at home". Hey, if I need another opinion on riding my bike, I'll just squeeze your head. How about instead of telling us to "take the car", you spend some of that time advising cagers to "LOOK TWICE, SAVE A LIFE." Inside of that useless five minutes you spent denigrating our sport, you could have run a total of 30 ten second announcements, advising our number one nemesis, cages, that they should be on the lookout for us. Would it kill you? You're killing us by not addressing the cause of most motorcycle accidents, CARS, not if the rider was wearing a helmet or not.

It this was any more stupid, we'd have to wear a helmet to watch the news...
