Default USA TODAY article

I think this article is about a week old, but...

About a year or so ago when Mary Peters was selected as Secretary of Transportation I was glad to hear she was a rider. (there's an old post around here somewhere where I expressed my feelings about it). I thought she might do good by us riders.

Well the following artical on USATODAY's website seems to show we might have an advocate after all. Hope the efforts described in the article help save at least a few lives.

On a side note...some of the comments by "non-riders" in response to the article are pretty darn brainless and disrespectful to riders.

HERE'S THE ARTICLE: DOT seeks to lower motorcycle deaths, educate riders - USATODAY.com

Peace.
