"start seeing motorcycles" stuff

I would appreciate you watching this short video. I met at least one person who is now dead because someone failed to see him while he was riding, with no excuse.

I have this kind of problem on a regular basis. If I didn't regularly expect people to be this stupid I would... not be so healthy.
One of the people actually said to me afterward, when I pulled up to them, "I'm sorry, I didn't see you!" Those words... piss me off.

Sorry, can't play that file at work. I'll try looking later.

It's generally not motorcyclists I have the issue with, it's SUVs and idiots in rich cars...but there have been a few idiot bikers acting like assholes and making me want to hit them. But not because I didn't see them. Let's face it--my car's tiny and low, how could I not see them?
