thats a reduction of the topic beyond whats reasonable. I did not say that motrcyclists were not responsible for their own safety. What I have said is that car drivers are also responsible for rider safety.

Motorcycles are most dangerous to the operator, the operator must take responsibility for their safety.

Cars are most dangerous to everyone who is not the operator, therefore the operator is responsible for their safety too.
