Regarding comment by Paul and David Huie Green about avoiding vehicles with the fish symbol……..GREAT IDEA! Think I’ll get me a couple of those stickers and maybe more of the folks on the road will take your thoughts to heart and not drive so close to ME!!!

REGARDING:
When I see the fish bumper sticker I steer clear, those people seem to be the worst drivers”

Some of them are putting too much trust in their co-pilot, not enough attention to what they’re doing themselves.

David thinking true irony would be
a photo of a deputy without seat belt

REGARDING:
“Motorcyclists are not required to wear them. Although seat belts are a good idea, this is not a constitutional law.”

Nothing in the Constitution requires you to treat motorcycles the same as cars or trucks. Nothing in the Constitution permits you to drive on the road without regard to laws.

Sometimes I get the impression folks are confusing the Constitution with their kindergarten teachers.
“Nobody gets a star unless everybody gets a star.”
“Nobody gets a reward unless everybody gets a reward.”

Surely we’re more mature than that.

Meanwhile, I tend to agree we should not have that law but that all killed in accident while not wearing a seat belt would be considered implied organ donors since that’s what they seem to be shooting for.

I had two trucks in one day run me off the road while I was on my bike and both of them had watch for motorcycles bumper stickers. When I see the fish bumper sticker I steer clear, those people seem to be the worst drivers..

That’s a hand-drawn sticker, too! Someone went out of their way to make this and put it on their vehicle.

Poor guy. He was probably a hard working man heading to work. Now he has to throw away about $116.00 bucks more to the system.

If you get one of these tickets, and you have time to go to court, it’s a cinch to beat it. Just tell them that enforcement is not equally applied. Motorcyclists are not required to wear them. Although seat belts are a good idea, this is not a constitutional law.
