and send the old mans camp an email. I have no knowledge of the race or the arguments but Jensen gets my vote!

I sent them an email of the old mans Ford appearing in both places. We will see if they continue to deny it.

Besides, it doesn't matter what part of his lane he was in. Bikes deserve the same footprint as cars. If they are in their lane the deserve to be safe from impact. I can't count how many times people have felt it is ok to push their way into my lane when I'm on my bike. They will expect you to move to one side of the lane or the other to avoid them and its just not right.

I commute everyday on a bike and put about 30,000 miles per year on bikes...its getting so unsafe on the roads it really is sad. People in cars feel invincible and drive like they are. Please start driving your car people. Driving is a VERB (something you do...an action word) ....it isnt something that just happens while you're eating, texting, or watching movies.

Sorry for the soapbox

Motorcycles are not supposed to ride in the "center" for a couple reasons. First of all, it tends to be the most slippery part of the road because fluids leaking from vehicles builds up in the center of the lane (obviously dropping from the engine/transmission/rearend of, most likely, American vehicles.) Also, it is easy to be "hidden" behind the car in front of you if in the center of the lane. You are hidden from on coming traffic and more at risk of people pulling out in front of you as well as being hidden from the car in front of you (people check their side mirrors more than their rear view mirror. The motorcycle safety folks teach new riders to ride in the tire path of the drivers side tires when going down the open road.

KOMO--
I'm not at all crazy about poorly written articles as it seems some on the internet are but this is crazy....

From your article:
"Darcus Allen, who has been charged with first-degree aggravated murder, is scheduled to stand trial in March. Prosecutors are not seeking the death penalty against Allen."

That is the only information we have regarding Darcus Allen. I had to do a Google search and ended up on a competitors site to learn who the heck Darcus Allen is! It would make sense that you provide information as to who the heck Darcus Allen is and how he fits into this story.

End rant......

BTW...DMV isn't hired to know and enforce laws. They may have cursory knowledge of them but they certainly won't have 100% correct information.

Again, you misunderstand....collectors vehicles are exempt (I have two)...as are others. Late model Porches are not. The only way for him to be legal is if he has an exemption from the state patrol:

In cases where the body construction of the vehicle is such that compliance with this section is impossible, permission to deviate therefrom may be granted by the state patrol.

I'm sure he has the exemption! :-) (BTW...we wouldn't give him one)
