Be careful out there friends!

Please keep me updated on the situation with the charges being filed against the SUV driver. The AMA works on legislation to get us "equal" footing in cases like this;i.e. driver of a cage gets the same charges in wrongful death of a motorcyclist as one in another cage.

Thanks

Gotta to tell you. I moved here to Charlotte on 1 July and I do not like riding in the Charlotte area at all. I have seen the worst driving habits in the area than I have ever seen anywhere else, and I have driven in all 50 states and a good many of the provinces as well. Not to bash anyone fron NC but when it comes to riding here I do so with an extreme sense of alertness. I also run one gear lower that I need to so I can make a quicker get out of the way or a faster engine slow down.

Still no news regarding charges.
