Those flocking motorcyclists are a danger to society. They think they own the road.

I guess this is tongue in cheek ? If I had a 100B note for every time some loaded 4WD was steaming towards me on a blind corner or hill with its lights flashing I'd be a rich man.

It's a sad time when an accident like this takes place, but it will never stop.
