I lost respect for myself today... Speechless...




Go ahead, watch it. Next time you get behind the wheel I bet you will all think twice.... like I did.

We had a member of my National Guard unit hit a lady in a crosswalk and kill her. Definitely a video everybody should watch.

It's weird, but watching this video reminded me of something I witnessed about a month or so ago. I saw some gal knock this old boy ass over tea kettle while he was (illegally) crossing a street. She took him at full speed...never slowed down. He looked dead as he was flying through the air! Sure enough, when I got over to him, he had already given up the ghost!

And people wonder why a lot of bikers really do believe that loud pipes save lives. If its annoyingly loud, they'll at least know you're there.

I know I do, and someone still almost killed me, litterly. I CAN'T ride anymore after 25 years of riding......kind of hard not having any felling on the right side of your body, seeing as how the gas and both breaks are on the right side of a bike.

I wish the a$$ that hit and ran, leaving me for dead on the road, would have been paying attention.......and yes, it makes me think when I get in my car and start to drive.
