"Look out for Bikers"
Well infact, if they rode at the same speeds as cars, it'd be vastly different... It's simply because bikes can put on and scrub off speed SO rapidly, that they round a corner at 110mph or so, which no car can do and someone will pull out on them because they are only anticipating anything to be coming doing a 50mph - the bike can scrub off 60mph in the blink of an eye and appear to hit the car at 50mph. Conversely a car doing 110 would maybe scrub 20mph off or so...
I am all for bikes, but unfortunately it's the typical compatibility problem - very fast bikes vs relatively slow cars - they just don't mix.
