I've had 2 uncles and one cousin killed on motorcycles by drivers simply not paying attention. Our society is no longer "present" and as a whole can't seem to navigate life without paying proper attention.

Too many people texting and driving. Texting is as dangerous if not more than alcohol. Texting is not something I do on the road. It can wait.

Motorcycle riding is dangerous enough outside of Louisiana. Inside Louisiana is just begging for death.

very sad, but riding a bike on roads with cars has serious risks.
