No Timm. There is a group of SS/FG riders here that like the image of a rebel on a bike. You know, traffic laws shouldn't apply to them. But if someone calls them on that, they go on the offensive.

Likewise, there are plenty of people that view the SS/FG crowd as irresponsible thrill-seekers. The irony of all this is that I was not implying anything about them. I was merely pointing out that the driver being discussed in the original post may have the incorrect perception that Baiskeli was behaving in an unsafe manner, when he clearly wasnt. I also tried to drive home the point that this driver should be made to be aware that he could have left a woman without her partner, or children without their dad.
