Thank Goodnes for the Feds
Thank you, Kpaul, for linking to that webBikeWorld article about NHTSA. The very first paragraph is most instructive:
The mission of the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) is straightforward: "Save lives, prevent injuries, reduce vehicle-related crashes."
Obviously, someone of your intellectual capability is aware that the best way to "save lives, prevent injuries, reduce vehicle-related crashes" among motorcyclists is to eliminate motorcycles. Motorcycles serve society in no useful manner and no amount of engineering, protective gear, or rider training will ever make a motorcycle as "safe" as a Kia Rio (which also gets better gas mileage than my SuperHawk).
Guess what the people at NHTSA (affectionately known as "Nasties") have figured this out too. A motorcycle ban will be the Nasties first step toward their Utopia of completely socialized mass-transportation.
It is important to remember that the Nasties are a part of our federal government, so we can be sure that they would never fabricate "facts," or monkey with statistics, or even use valid statistics for nefarious purposes. The Nasties are one of many trustworthy federal agencies that are doing everything they can to protect us Americans from our stupid selves.
Thank God and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration! And thank you, Kpaul, for directing our attention to another trustworthy agency of our benevolent federal government.
