Drivers that piss you off!

[drew_goring]

Between the middle of March and the middle of November, 95% of the miles I drive are on one of my bikes. There are really too many things to list of stuff that pisses me off 'cause for the most part, the vast majority of drivers are ignorant of motorcycles.

I teach the MSF course on weekends, and one of the first thing we tell students is "As soon as you leave on a ride, assume that everyone on the road is a moron because 75% of 'em are, so you have pretty good chances of being right".

Anyone else here who rides?

I have been on motorcycles since I was 5. I received my motorcycle permit the same day I received my license.

I started off driving a '78 Yamaha enduro 250 and then after a summer of this, upgraded to a '96 GSX-R 750.

Of course I lived in rural Saskatchewan at the time, so I had to drive 4 miles of gravel road every day going to and from town. But I did crash my dirbike enough times growing up to learn to respect bikes. I never had a problem with drivers, but again, all of my driving was in rural Saskatchewan with the odd trip to Saskatoon.

I can't wait until I get back home at the end of the month, so I can cruise in my 250 for the summer.
