I've been ticketed for speeding (truck), not wearing a seatbelt (truck) and not wearing eye protection (but wearing the helmet) on a GL1200 with its billboard sized windshield. I was clearly guilty, but of the 3 tickets, the speeding ticket was the least expensive fine.
So... endangering the lives of others by speeding down the highway carries less of a penalty than endangering myself by not wearing the seatbelt or eye protection. Go figure.
