It's very sad of all the loss of motorcycle riders. It seems like more are happening this year. I personally would never own one here in Florida. People just don't watch for them or in some cases they are to old to be driving & can't see anyways but still have a driver's license. But anyways with this case in general. I see this all the time up & down us 19 with the wheelies once it was around 4 in the afternoon. They love showing off & this is what happenSpinner. Maybe they should have a age limit on purchasing one or higher insurance. Just to make it a little harder to get.
