Listen let's face the facts here.
Bikes ARE harder to see.
Most bike accidents are by themselves and other vehicles are not involved.
It's easy to blame cars/4wd's whatever but the bottom line is we have to ride like they are all out to get us.
I've said this before ..I drive a 4wd and do not have an attitude at all.
In fact you would be amazed how slow I drive.
It's always easy to pidgeon hole people...just like car drivers pidgeon hole bikes..that they are all dickheads...and when you look around at how a lot of bike riders ride...they may be onto something.
I saw a young bloke in t shirt and runners on a 250 or something going down the centre line of Sydney Rd today with bumper to bumper traffic both ways trying to do a mono...
now that is just f*&^ing on a death wish. Cheers,
Pete
