Poll: Do motorcycles make the roads more dangerous?

RichLockyer · 09-06-2008

Okay guys... right now it's about 33% to 66% in our favor, but let's post this on as many MC sites as we can and really blow this poll away:

Dallas / Fort Worth TV station....
Dallas/Fort Worth - Local News, Weather, Forecast, Reports, Traffic, Entertainment, News Stories - KXAS | NBC Channel 5

It's about 3/4 of the way down the page.

Voted No of course. More and more motorists will make highways more dangerous regardless of what someone is riding or driving. God, I hate dumb polls that target "the tool" someone uses rather than the true cause - the person operating it.

c_law23 · 09-06-2008

we are at 70/30 good guys.

jbsmd · 09-06-2008

30% to 70% now

Badmedicine · 09-06-2008

I cast my vote, I really don't understand the logic behind the question, but what the heck, not the first thing I didn't understand the logic behind. I guess if I figured I am more prone to bodily injury in a bike crash, than a car crash, and there are more and more inexperienced riders on the road waiting to crash, then I guess statistically the number of injury accidents could increase, still doesn't make any sense.

My vote is cast and I posted a thread on localriders.com

A2rider · 09-06-2008

What? Yer not gonna ask me what oil I use? Or if I wear a helmet, or what beer I'm drinking?

OK, I voted.

901-376 in favor of us not being terrorists.

gnomad · 09-06-2008

bretsk2500 · 09-06-2008

robrider · 09-06-2008

28 to 72, even better! How about asking if cars make motorcycling more dangerous!

Click on the link and go about three quarters down the page and look on the right side of the page. It's not very big.
