Speeding essential, say bikers

RIDING at double the speed limit, "bending" road rules and "pushing the limits" are just part of riding safely, according to many motorcyclists.

An investigation into the behaviour of riders has revealed a belief among many motorcyclists that breaking the law was actually safer than abiding by road rules. Article here.
With the recent blitz of stories about reckless motorcyclists, this strikes me as yet another sensationalisation attempt. The article itself doesn't say a whole lot, save affirming the general public opinion that motorcycles are dangerous because it turns people into irrational speedfreaks.
