a) Bikes are less visible, so it's in their own interests to make themselves seen, this doesn't just mean hi-vis clothes/HID headlights- your road positioning is incredibly important. b) Bikers are supposed to have more road-sense than your average driver. Sure, everyone should always lifesave before moving, but sometimes, in an emergency, people are lucky to get a glance in the mirrors before swerving within their lane, let alone do a proper "rear observation". |

We have a couple of BMW bikes parked PERMANENTLY at work. I
understand the owners' reasoning: they probably don't have garages so prefer to keep there bikes stored at the university. It is a nice covered parking lot for motorcycles with security guards patrolling the place. Still it is not nice in relation to people who commute on bikes every day and often have difficulty finding a parking spot. And these BMW's take up so much space! Don't know whether owning a BMW really changes a person's mentality. Maybe it is all just a coincidence. |
