Requiem for a biker
For those interested a simple translation of the text at the end:
This movie is intended to warn drivers of the possible hazards more...on the roads.
1 out of every 100 motorists rides a motorcycle.
in 70% of all accidents between a MC more... and a car the driver said he didn't see the MC or saw him too late.
still too little drivers think about MC in daily traffic.
Riders must also take heed of their vulnerability.
A rider is vulnerable.
Compared to a car a MC has more difficulty in evading sudden obstacles such as a bad road, branches or animals
Car accidents have a mortality rate of 20%.
MC accidents have one of 60%.
Because of their size MCs seem further away.
Riders often brake on the engine which does not make the brakelights flare up.
In MC rider jargon (loosely translated) crashbarriers are also called Guillotines and frenchfriesslicers...(I prefer eggslicers)
slippery roadmarkings on wet roads are disaster for twowheelers...
Look, twice, save lives, motorcycles are everywhere.
In memory of our friends...Riders...

Too often, excessive speed on our part puts us in danger...but more often (in my experience) car/truck drivers just don't pay attention or watch out for us. They change lanes...right into us, they cut corners & come into our lanes, they turn left right in front of us, pull out in front of us, tailgate us & rear-end us at stop lights. Many car drivers just don't seem to 'get it' when we get angry with them either...but I don't want to DIE just because some car idiot isn't paying attention!
