We keep hearing and reading stuff like "look out for motorcycles" but it's kind of strange how most motorcyclist blend in with the scenery.... So maybe bikers need to wear brighter outerwear and play a bigger part in helping car drivers etc "look out for motorcycles".

I am almost 100 percent that the DOT didn't do it on purpose and probably felt pretty bad! So the important thing is that both are okay.. and that the damages are taking care of accordingly as they should be with every other accident you know we should just remember that DOT or county officer or FHP they are just human… and EVERYONE makes mistakes… I am almost 100 percent that the DOT didn’t do it on purpose and probably felt pretty bad!

And they say he has minor injuries which is true. But he will be out of work for atleast 3 months. The bike doesnt look like it has a scratch on it or messed up, but he for sure is and the bike will be costing a pretty penny too. The officer should definitly recieve the same reprocutions as any other person would even though it was an accident. The most important thing to remember is this man's recovery, not who is to blame.

They do good work but need to slow down and be cognizant of other drivers when they slam on their brakes in traffic and do U-turns. Better to miss a simple CMV violation than injure someone in an accident. Also troopers do get tickets but usually get out of them. Maybe he needs to close his laptop and go back driver safety training!! Thank god all are safe. Trooper was overzealous, not the first time or the only one.

Our highway is falling apart as are our bridges and we are asking for Federal Hand outs to help fix them, when it would be more efficient to take all the over loaded bad, speeding, drivers off the roads who tear everything up, and many of them are also responsible for the bullying going on on the highways. Thanks Troupers for everything you do to save our lives on these dangers hwys. Keep on doing your job, some of us really appreciate you.
