Thanks for the stories guys. If nothing else, they serve as a reminder to be careful. And a reminder to all vehicles other than motorcycles to watch out for bikes.
This accident today was right near a seniors centre, and a guy I work with mentioned that he hoped it wasn't a senior that hit him. On the news tonight, they interviewed the man in the car that was turning left, and it was an 80-year old man. He started turning and stopped for pedestrians...he never even saw the biker. Incredibly sad.
