I agree, but we all know that many of them do not abide with traffic laws, and many of them pay the ultimate price.
Nobody seems outraged by THAT waste of human life. I doubt many (if any) see any joy in the non-law obeying cycle/scooter riders paying the ultimate price but when they live by the adage of "you can't fix stupid", sometimes bad things happen. This is coming from a former motorcycle rider of 45+ years and one who has personally witnessed one on SXM going "splat" due to their antics. I can assure you, many who have encountered some of the wild riding style in SXM are outraged by it but they have no control over the outcome when those who choose to ride like this do so. The problem with the curfew of cycles, would be enforcing it as it is pretty much proven, it would likely not be followed voluntarily. Not really sure what your point is with this.

Nothing wrong with motorcycles as long as they abide with traffic laws and respect the curfew. Thank you, Scubaman.
I'm going where the weather suits my clothes.
