It's pretty apparent that you can't legislate common sense, but they sure love to do it anyway.

Why do we insist on spending money for gov,required improvments, when practice and training should be inlisted instead. How much does antilock brakes cost? Shouldn't I have the option not to have them? I don't want a bike with an automatic but wiper, but if someone else thinks I need it they ask congress to make sure I have to have one. At what cost are you guy's willing to have a law passed. If you want to make it safer to ride then how about we spend our hard earned money on more required training? 
I've worn seat belts since I was sixteen and I believe in them, but I don't think we need a law that say's we have to wear them. I fail to see what our obssesion with having to tell each other how to live our lives by passing laws to make sure everyone does what I believe to be safe.
Ditto on both counts!! I'd rather see much stricter training and re-testing implimented than gadgetry. I just think people will be more likely to fight something if they feel their "rights" are being restricted, since driving is so common in the US, people think it's a right, rather than a privaledge.
