Hey motorcyclists! Try using a safer mode of transportation and stop blaming everyone else for not seeing you. Don't you get it. Your hard to see. Make yourselves stand out more. Wear bright colors such as blaze orange. Have flashing lights like bicycles. Sorry folks, I'm tired of hearing from people who blame others because they put themselves in danger, especially the fools who don't wear helmets. Riding motorcycles is dangerous.

Some good reasons to watch for motorcyclists, especially when Ryan Reynolds is in the neighborhood.

Just ten minutes ago, I was waiting on my bicycle to cross Ludington at Harrison from the corner with the post office, an old lady in a motor scooter is on the opposite corner wanting to cross over my way. The walk sign comes up, I head over she starts her scooter going. From behind her, a truck turns right in front of her, fortunately, she saw what was happening and stopped; I had to stop too to avoid being ran over.
An LPD Tahoe right behind the truck, who must've seen this truck violate both the lady's and my right-of-way just heads across the street as if it was no big deal. These are the same kops who stop bicyclists for crossing empty intersections claiming they violated right-of-way rules.

This tragedy happened in our state in Canton. A young mother was walking her bike across the street, and was struck down by a passing vehicle preparing to turn. http://www.hometownlife.com/article/20110722/NEWS03/110722002
How do you miss seeing her crossing this road, walking her bike, when you are slowing for a turn? And why isn't there any charges against the driver?
