but, won't car drivers being more aware help? if that's a big factor, wouldn't it be good to address?
if i'm reading this right, you don't think car drivers should have to worry if they're going to kill someone, because you think that person deserves it due to the risk they personally took on?
you think it's too much to expect someone driving a safer vehicle to drive safely and not kill other people? you resent being told to pay basic attention while driving a car because if you hit someone that isn't also in a car, they might die and that pisses you off?
wtf?
Well that's the thing, you don't seem like you are...
And I don't think I'm going to help you understand, sorry
You seem to be saying that we should worry about making motorcyclists do safer things instead of making car drivers do safer things... which doesn't help too much because wearing a leather jacket or even a helmet will be small comfort when you're run over by an inattentive person in a two ton death machine.
