I never did any of that stuff, nor does anyone I know. A minority of, often younger riders, give a bad impression.

Just like with police. A minority of bad cops give all cops a bad name.

You can be as safe as you want but when another car merges into you on the highway, there is nothing you can do other than evasive manuevers and hope that you don't get killed.

Same can be said for a truck merging on to a person in a car.

Want to make the roads safe? Actually enforce distracted driving, it's almost as if not just as dangerous as drunk driving, and we take away licences for that. Retest drivers and riders every 5 years, and every 3 years for anyone over 65.

Yes. But we’d need a more robust mass transit system or walkable towns/cities. I’m all for that, but not everyone is.
