Its just the thought of entitlement that other people have. It's like "I'm better than you, so you have to wait, and I don't"



I see and respect your point Ryan, but tend to disagree. Most of my disagreement comes from my 3+ years from living in Brooklyn. Commuting to midtown Manhattan every day, I view utilizing 2 wheeled transportation as entitling me to certain privilges that the cars & cabs don't have.

Riding a motorcycle every day entitles me to be able to ride the 7 miles back to my home in 35 minutes, rather than the 90 minutes in a car or 60-75 minutes on a subway. It allows me to park on a sidewalk or squeeze between a car and a fire hydrant if no other adequate parking is available.

Big city living is a way of life that most suburban dwellers just don't understand, and riding a motorcycle and taking advantage of the entitlement (legal or illegal) is just another way of coping with it and making city life that much more bearable. Call me a squid, a bad rider, an ******-hole, but when I'm spending that extra hour every day with my friends or a loved one, it's not going to bother me one bit.
