Do you ride a Motorcycle in the City?

Yesterday, driving home from work I passed by an accident between a Bike and a Car.
Appears the car was reversing out of the house driveway into a busy road. Bike appears to have crashed into said car.
Mangled mess the bike is.
Motorbikes offer no protection and every time one rides one, the riders life is more at risk than car drivers.
Can hear the Ambulance sirens blaring on the way to the scene.
 

No, never had one, but dreaming of someday having a moped/scooter to putter round the roads lol.... Vroom, vroom! Something similar to this, which only requires regular driver's license.

Had a Harley Sportster 1200 to go to work on. Two scary incidents. One a woman pulled out in front of me I managed to stop just short of hitting her broadside. The other I topped the hill just before entering the outskirts on McAdoo Pa. my face mask instantly fogged over I couldn't see for a few seconds but did manage to clear the mask in time to avoid an accident. That was enough to convince me I might not be lucky a 3rd. time.

I worked in a large city hospital when I was young. My job was drawing blood samples on new patients. Sometimes we were called to draw blood on someone that came into the emergency room. On two occasions I drew blood on individuals that crashed on motorcycles. I was able to get a blood sample both times, which I ran up to the lab. But, in both cases the patients died in the emergency room and the blood samples were of no use...

I was 20 then I am over 70 now. I never road on a motorcycle, let alone own one...
