“Look Twice For Motorcycles” decals, distributed, I think by ABATE, an organization of motorcyclists focused on rider safety, are seen everywhere. The leading cause, nationally, of motorcycle fatalities is a car or truck turning into the right-of-way of a motorcycle — usually making a left turn across oncoming traffic.

Drivers: please, please, be aware that two or three seconds of carelessness on your part can take a life, or two lives, and visit heartache on others that will never go away.
