Motorcycle fatalities are soaring in the US, even though the number of motorcycle riders is mostly flat. What is causing this, Jow Forums? Check your local news, you will probably find several stories of motorcyclists in your area fatally eating pavement from just the past few weeks.

they drive like cunts and get what they got coming. Also, it's great that millenials are killing Harley D, fuck that shit.

Literal zoomers

>illegals that can't drive worth a shit
Spics are so short, it's a wonder how they even see over the dash.

zoomers being retarded

stop fucking texting while driving

A lot of states of repealed helmet laws, so you see a lot of scraggly cancer ridden boomers riding around with their bald heads shining in the sun, just waiting to be caved in by a concrete barrier.

Kids think their leet twitch reflex gaming skills translate into real life.

Bruh....

Hopefully ill get to witness one firsthand someday

Motorcycles getting fucked is top 3 videos for me.
Things getting hit by trains uncontested number 1, then comes people on bikes or motorcycles getting hit in any order really.

>all those cuck comments on the "alleged racism" story
Utah is fucking lame

Distracted driving. It's not just the millennials and zoomers at this point. Every boomer and even older are on their phones or staring at their infotainment screen in every new car. Welcome to the golden age of technology...

All vehicular accidents have increased.
>diversity

A good amount of riders don't pay the fuck attention to roads, conditions, or surroundings. Many also have this aura that they should always have the right of way.

The whole, "watch out for riders" shit all over facebook is so cringe. How about everyone watch.

What would make motorcycle driving safer? Less cars. What would make cars safer? Also less cars. Higher population means more cars means more danger.

my dad was killed on his by a texting teenage girl who received literally no repercussions
i still ride mine, you just need the mindset that literally everybody around you is actively trying to kill you. and even that isnt enough
i had some fat fuck in a minivan apex a turn completely in my lane. he was going about 60mph on a curvy road with a 35 limit. i had to run into the grass. thankfully i didnt dump it and promptly turned around to chase him the fuck down. i gave him a mouthful and his gay van may have had 1 less mirror attached to it

I've been riding for 3 years now and haven't really had any close calls, maybe the big one is coming? I'm in florida too which is the most dangerous state to ride in. Currently on a 600rr

I just quit riding after some asian kid pulled out without looking. I popped over the hood without much damage. But its just too dangerous , and the cost of mistake by any party too high

Harder drugs on the street, alongside more illegal immigrants without insurance.

>600rr
Time to move up to a big biy bike son.
600's are fine to learn on for a year but after that there's no excuse.
If you ain't got a litre you ain't got a Peter.

People texting while driving cars

It's just dumb to ride a motorcycle outside of enjoyment or if it's a hobby thing.
You have practically zero protection if you get into an accident, whether it's your fault or someone else's.

Underrated

>boomer post

Niggers, illegals, and other assorted minorities driving.

Toxoplasmosis Gondii and dysgenic breeding spamming out people with low inhibition and poor risk assessment.

Imagine tearing your arm out of its socket because you wanted to go fast

Self driving cars when

They drive like absolute shit that's why they're all dying. There's this really narrow road on a mountain near me that has several hairpin turns. Speed limit is only 20 miles an hour and no passing is allowed since it's so dangerous but these bikefags don't care and speed around cars anyway. Eventually when going around a blind turn when in the wrong lane they'll hit some car or semi truck and they go off the road and land in the giant ravine 150 feet below. Literally every single fatality on that road has been a biker doing some stupid shit. Their clubs or little faggot groups are always complaining to the town about how the road is too dangerous for bikers. But if they just drove normally they would be fine.

I have had many bikes over 6 years and I race on race tracks but do weekend/some weekday after work riding in the twisties and typically I expect to see 1 or 2 “ that could’ve been bad if I was going 100% “ so I go 70% at the most and even that’s sometimes too much

Most of it is distracted driving and bikes that people with zero skills are riding without any helmet or gear. These days you can get 200hp and 400lbs for under 20k and it’s road legal. That’s fucking fast dude

florida is super flat and super straight roads no? that might have something to do with it

We got rid of helmet laws here in Michigan so now every motorcycle rider dies or has brain damage if they crash. I don't know why the fuck you would ride a motorcycle on our terrible roads full of retards and 6 months of snow, but I guess I'm not a literal brainlet like these motorcyclists

How about you check your blindspot for motorcycles instead faggot?

Loud pipes save lives.

this is the real reason

Fuck you. We are sick of you faggots crossing the double yellows because you can’t pay attention

Every rider has a story about their crash and how much metal is in their body, you just haven't had yours yet.

Learn to drive in early teens. Turn 16. Get a license. Never have to test drive to qualify ever again. Get licensed in bumfuk. Come to Sacramento and drive your ass off. Humans are too dumb to drive.

>Drive on wrong side of road because you GOTTA GO FAST
>Car going the correct direction hits you
>"Waaaahhhh it's your fault I drive like a nigger"
lol

they don't stop at stop signs

What causing it ?

>Toxoplasma gondii the fearless parasite

ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/23745372

Most of the Motorcycle accidents we have in my city are due to distracted drivers or better yet drivers doing stupid shit like illegal turns, running red lights, or pulling out and misjudging the distance of the oncoming traffic.

Retards thinking they can split lanes at 120 mph.

people are sick of YOU faggots intentionally risking your life on an outdated vehicle system just because you want to look cool with a tinted helmet.

>what is causing this
immigrant drivers

When euros accept automatic.

Youre all dumb faggots who cant drive

Im not allowing an idiot to runninto me

>Motorcycle fatalities are soaring in the US, even though the number of motorcycle riders is mostly flat.
source of this /b/ tier assertion faggot. if you wish to shit up this board even worse than it is at least provide a reliable source

>stay off the grass

Only a massive loser is so triggered by vidya
Who hurt your weak ass user?
Got ass pained because little kids keot wrecking your ass?
Fucking fool

Bruh
Kys faggit

Unironically phones. Texting and social media. People can't even stay in their fucking lanes as well as they did prior to 2007.

Hopefully your involved and its fatal

Even stopping at a stop sign seems dangerous these days. People will tailgate right behind you and almost hit you if you come to a complete stop like you're supposed to. And yeah everyone thinks they have the right of way too, like at a 4 way stop they just go through. We live in a society

nice bike
i like uprights

Stormtroopers of Death is Jow Forums approved rock

>when they get rid of motorcycles because the two are incompatible.
Think

Uninsured, unlicensed immigrants that can't drive for shit and don't look for motorcycles. I have two bad knees because of it

Things I don't give a fuck about

niggers.

niggers like motorcycles now.

90% of Riders I've met are right wing.

Solid little D&C thread though you kike faggot :))

Yeah, its roots are entitlement and thats gay
Im proactive, I wont LET anyone hit me

probably newer riders being retarded

I'd kill for a CBX. I know a guy who has a perfectly restored 1979 but he refuses to sell it

>What is causing this, Jow Forums?
Asians & soifaggots in Prius. Riding street today is suicide. Most people can't drive at all.

I got a call one time where a motorcycle driver went flying down a hill, a brake or something about the vehicle itself broke

>no repercussions
So why didn't you get out the flaming chains and hit this bitch with some Ghost Rider shit?

Call the cops?
If not, did you kick his ass?
Most beaners cant call the po

Oh my God fucking kill yourself

Nah. First week as EMT, older guy tells me to "go grab that helmet out of the road". Yeah, there was a fucking head inside.

Im just better than you, cunt

>literally only memes

This is bix nooding for whites
Kys chump

Shit. Sorry to hear that fren.

she was from another state. shes now a supposed christian and is happily married pumping out mutts
the whole event kind of put me in a state of shock for a few years. i didnt really comprehend what had happened or come to terms with it. idk, it was a really weird experience. i was working on something around the house and just started raging the fuck out because it was difficult, then i realized it was something my dad would've taken care of and i kinda broke down for a week

>People will tailgate right behind you and almost hit you if you come to a complete stop like you're supposed to
I don't even have a bike, I have an SUV and I routinely watch middle aged women do about 75% their breaking in the last 5 feet behind me constantly. They all slam their fucking brakes at the last second and almost smash their head into the steering wheel.

I'm also real tired of people doing a real shitty lange change, almost clipping you, when they're behind you and you're making a turn. As if hitting their fucking brakes for a few seconds is just too much effort.

License testing should be mandatory every 5 years for renewal and the pass criteria should be moderately difficult to obtain.

Nice anecdote
Imagine typing all that lame shit

>something something nothing to do with what was said
This is why we laugh at your deaths.

Hurrr durrrrr
Same as in my state
I still wear a fucking helmet when I want

cool story bro

I wonder how many bike riders realize you can block them out of sight with your thumb at the end of an outstretched arm.
The sooner they realize they are invisible compared to a car it might give them 10% better chance.

I never will

That's because we've all been nearly or totally.killed by some uninsured illegal. Funny how your politics can change after Obama prices you out of insurance and then you get hit by an illegal causing life altering and permanent damage that you can't afford to fix

A 600rr is a top bike user and anyone with even the faintest knowledge of bikes would tell you the same.

t hall monitor

Does it make you cry?

fuck off dude, dont get in a car's blind spot in a fucking bike, its like asking to get killed
maybe trying to get noticed by the rest of the drivers sharing the roads is a better idea to not get killed?? idk man, i thought it wasn that hard to understand that safety goes first

I said same shit in '96 after getting hit by a senior.
Old farts should be driving nerf buicks

So dumb

I split lanes at like 5mph

>Im just better than you
Typical entitlement. You'll die one of these days

Yep

If you don't ride a BMW you're not white. Deal with it.
