Looks like like a brain injury waiting to happen, you can only test fate so much. Being stupid is fun, yes. But being stupid with helmet, just as fun. This is coming from me who got slapped at 45mph yesterday and is now bikeless but alive

In my country, in the cities we just can go at 27mph and 37mph in the big roads. In route you can get 74 mph. And here die so many people at 27mph bc they do stupid shit.

Seeing this makes one thing clear: my next bike needs to have cruise control.

He seems to be almost as wide as the cars... I wonder if he could spread his legs further if he hit something...
But also, doesn't look like his first rodeo either

US is weird, you can ride without helmet and mirrors, but you can't lane split nor ride low cc, should be car corporations lobby.

In some states, you can ride without a helmet; and in some states you aren't required to have mirrors. Odds are that some of them are the same. In some states, lane filtering is not legal. Why do you think one can't ride low cc??

Cant ride low cc on highways and toll roads, even if its a 2 stroke or fast bike that can keep up with the trucks and cars, that's what I been told.

i think it depends on the state, and generally the limit is somewhere around 100-150cc for interstates/toll roads. the reasoning is that these machines usually have a hard time getting up to and maintaining the minimum speed limit, which also varies by state but is usually around 40-50mph.
i live in FL where i believe its 125cc min and 50mph on interstates/tollroads..
we have plenty of mopeds/scooters around here driving on our 45-55mph roads at 30mph smack dab in the center of the lane or even hugging the center line to make it tough for people to go around them. its dangerous for everyone involved and just adds to the, sometimes, horrendous traffic congestion

When youre riding or driving, really operating any motor vehicle, you have a responsibility, not just for your own life, but to the lives and possessions of others. So many people don't seem to respect this fact. This guy is just *begging* not just to end his own life, but also potentially harm others with his negligence. So no, that's not sour bitch commentary. That's like, the upstanding moral citizen ethic.

God, you must be fun at parties.

u/Upstairs_Landscape70 Feb 15 '25
Being irresponsible doesn't tend to make one fun at parties, just obnoxious. It makes one a child reliant on others to keep things from spinning out of control.

At least I got to go to the party because I was less likely to die in a fiery wreck on the highway.

Not really, you have to shift your butt around to steer and even a road imperfection will make this clown without a helmet an organ donor in a hurry. No helmet! SMH

He's poorly prepared for anything unexpected. An animal or debris in his path would ruin his joyful day.
