    Mostly when I am riding my motorcycle and someone just pulls out in front of me like I am not there. That thing doesn't stop on a dime! "I didn't see you" does very little when you could have killed me. Open your damn eyes. If you can't see a motorcycle, your eyesight isn't good enough to be driving at all. So stay your *kitten* at home or get someone to drive you. Actually had to lay it down and still clipped someones bumper a few weeks ago, and took nearly a month to get the money from her insurance. I swear, one day I will lose it and just beat the hell out of someone for that *kitten*, assuming I'm not overly injured in the accident.

    You have to be super vigilant and assume people don't see you as the number of terrible drivers only increases each year. I don't drive a motorcycle here because my best case scenario is me breaking one or more of my bones.

    you just have to be faster that folkes in the cars and truck, that will keep you alive...

    My pet peeve is when I have to use google as a spell check because Chrome doesn't do as good enough job. Neither does Word.

    I have to just always assume they are going to pull out in front of me because they do. I've had to go down on purpose to avoid a bigger accident and that is infuriating. On a smaller vehicle you appear to be farther away and moving slower. People are dumb.

    This video of a mother hitting her son on a motorcycle makes me lol

    She even says...be careful :)

    Also you can watch the beginning where they talk but the goods happen at 3:20

    Lol omg!

    I wish I could find the video but I saw a good one where some lady ran the biker off the road when her lane ended and she merged into him. He had a helmet cam. Like right down the road there was a cop and he drove up to the cop and got him to pull her over :lol:

    I've seen that one, but I think it was just a gif on imgur that I saw and not a video. Either way it was pretty awesome to watch!

    When people don't push in chairs ... Only Bc I usually end of tripping or falling over them! As a pre-school teacher my students would never push in their chairs.. A lot is bruised knees and half catching myself from tumbling over.

    This is why I always walk, with my head down & people'll tell me, that I looked depressed but I then tell them, that I am trying to avoid an injury; to become depressed about!
