Florida's Superfast Motorcyclists Are a Growing Menace

[smileyman]

The general public doesnt understand or conceive of the performance envelope of todays sportbikes. So even safe maneuvers for us seem like death defying stunts. The punks that abuse that power soon lose it but it does a ton of PR damage.

On the other hand, there are alot more folks out there drinking and driving, texting, putting on make up, and stuffing their faces. One truck driver here in AR even crashed his semi into a house while eating biscuits and gravy...where is thier condemnation?

You know...I too kinda cringe (a little) when I see NY plates.
But not as much as NJ plates and certainly not as much as Florida plates

In all seriousness, why?

Around here, NY, NJ or Ontario plates are 99% sure to be old farts, 10 years past their expiration date who can't see, hear or care to follow any traffic rules/laws.

The other 1% is the Jersey kids down here for college. They are too busy listening to Jay-Z in the parental-financed Escalade/QX56 and applying their lip gloss and make-up on their way to the Jersey Shore auditions. The chicks are even worse...

Florida drivers on NY roads tend to adopt all the bad habits of NY drivers and magnify them.

Add on top of that the apparant ignorance of what yeild signs mean and the desire to park their ass in the passing lane and drive under the speed limit.

To make matter worse, a lot of them are the assholes through out of the state back in the 80's and 90's.
