Sup guys, just making a common sense PSA to some riders out there cause... its needed as obvious as it is. Recently got into an accident that could've been avoided if i'd maintained a slower speed splitting. I consider myself a pretty damn good rider especially when it comes it to reacting, weaving and gauging depth BUT... i let my heart cross my head and now ive basically been in two hand casts the past month with still a liiittle time to go. I know i was good enough a rider to avoid most not-at-fault cases, but my own desire for speed is what fcked me. Im not gonna lie that damn rush you get from splitting lanes at over recommended speeds is a fckin insane feeling, and yea im 22 so i did feel relatively invincible, but if there IS that part of you in your head saying "youre asking for it, dont be a dumbass, respect the road" cant stress enough to listen to it. This is an obvious point im making, and if i was reading this before even my accident, idk if i wouldve fully listened but its just one of those things that needs a little reminder. I was riding selfishly and got what i deserved, been out of work for a month now, schools been hard to manage and now ive been taking the bus to school dealing with an hour and a half commute opposed to a 20min ride cause i physically cant drive a car yet. Plus my parents had to deal with it too, especially a decent amount of lashout from my the rest of my family telling them they shouldve never let me get a motorcycle in the first place. thats a diff issue but you see, MY actions had negative effect on my parents and thats just another form of disrespect.The streets dont love you back... respect the road or it will wreck you lol.bike: https://imgur.com/a46Jj8Y via /r/motorcycles https://www.reddit.com/r/motorcycles/comments/9xuj19/just_an_obvious_psa_to_chronic_lane_splitters_the/?utm_source=ifttt
