Why aren't there more motorcycles in LA? If I lived there I wouldn't even own a car, just a bike. No winter!

- quuquuquu 9y agoCompletely agreed XD There are two types of organ-donating motorcyclers, though: 1) speedsters / daredevils 2) law abiding riders hit from behind/side
- uiri 9y agoNot only that, but lane splitting is legal in California. That helps a lot in getting through standstill traffic.
- trts 9y agoThere are people who can get away with being bad drivers for decades who would have been dead a long time if they drove a bike. Especially in L.A. where it requires a good degree of both aggression and defensiveness to not become roadkill. I don't think it's too much of an exaggeration to say that motorcycling is a sport, and not just a different mode of transit. Unfortunate though that L.A. doesn't have world-class bicycle infrastructure.
