Ohhhhhhhhhhh this is so true!!!!

About 10 years ago i was headed to work one rainy morning. There was a motorcycle in front of me and i had followed him for about 5 miles or so. Now i'm a motorcycle friendly driver and watch for them and was not following too close. All of a sudden, something told me, back off. I poopooed it and kept my pace. Again i felt..."BACK OFF". Not only did i slow down i changed lanes.

Almost immediately the bike went down. He had to be going about 70mph. He slid about 100 feet at least with his bike in front of him. Luckily he had on big thick protective gear and a helmet. He was still bleeding some and had broken at least his leg. I stayed with him until EMS got there.

Point is...if i had stayed behind him, i would have for sure run him over, even at my distance due to the rain, when he went down.

No doubt.
