Most cyclists are excellent drivers, so why do I always seem to encounter the crazies who like to drive between lanes?

Then there's one who got mad at me when he slammed on his brakes merging onto I-20 during rush hour. I was trying to enter the on-ramp to I-635 and I got closer to him than he thought I should.

All he had to do was accelerate to an open spot, instead of braking. That's one advantage motorcycles have, quick acceleration.

Because most does not equal all.

Two died on 270 in Montgomery County, Maryland last night. They crashed into each other while doing wheelies. My give-a-sh*t meter is hardly moving on that one.

A lot of bikes are air cooled - my 2019 Kawasaki 800C is. I must keep moving so the engine doesn’t melt. That means I get to drive between the lanes. Lane splitting is legal in most states.
