Hmm, so why are their people driving with driving impairments? I would very much like to see anyone over 70 have to be rectified every year. But, that is just me - I am 72.
And as a previous motorcycle rider, I agree, that is dangerous. It is paramount for them to assume the cars can't/don't see them. As for the bike riders, I also rode many centuries, and the safest place for a bike rider in on the road going the same direction as the cars.
