Perhaps insurance companies should be required to show a prospective customer films of black lungs of dead smokers, heart damage to the obese, or knee replacement surgery to an athlete. Maybe bicycling should be banned in the Villages, due to all the accidents. And would you "wager" that everyone that rode a bicycle as a child have all had close calls? I've had no injuries on a motorcycle, but my close calls were ALL due to poor drivers of cars. I've had many injuries as a child when riding a bicycle.

Auh...yeah..that was the point...a close call..I did not say caused by the Mc rider per say....its just dangerous in many ways...people don't see you and turn in frt of you. They stop short, change lanes etc,etc. So the Mc driver has to do double duty by driving defensively and being aware of all the nuisances of a bike. So with that, wouldn't a rider want to do everything they can to avoid injury.this is why you can't get bodily injury insurance protection in ny...the risk is too high.
