MODERATORS
Both main points you raised related to my sharing an anecdote, which, as you seemingly don't know the word generally means:
A biographical event specific to the speaker's experience.
So yes, every rider I SEE, implying the ones I personally detect, and personally NOTICE.
Next I used whatever speed unit I wanted because the condition of reckless motorbike usage is not specific to Queensland, and as I already mentioned I was using an anecdote (again reminder that means a story about my own life, sorry if you forgot again), I used the speed unit that applied to where I experienced it.
If you're confused about when I started my anecdote refer to the first two words of my comment.
Lastly nice attempt with the Tu Quoque fallacy, suggesting I am a lawbreaker too and therefore can't criticize others. Childish.
Get parried, begone, drive safely.
