As I get older I believe less in accidents.



I've been thinking about this and I tend to agree. All "accidents" are the result of negligence. Negligence is the true enemy. When it comes to riding a motorcycle (or anything, really) all you can do is try to eliminate opportunities for your own negligence and try to anticipate the negligence of others. The truly diligent may be able to eliminate about 95% of the former, and maybe 50-75% of the latter. That leaves a lot of room for "accidents." Of course, those occurances run along a continuum between a stubbed toe and death.

But really all of this is arguing semantics. S happens and it can be anybody's fault.
