good morning chicks!
Mandy - way to go on exercising!
CChick - that is so kewl that your DH gets to 'exercise' a car

best wishes to him this Sat. And thanks, I had a great first day back at the Trout Club!
Tammy - yes!!! Mandatory motorcycle education IS included in a few states' driver's ed programs, but it should be all states! AND mandatory charges for violating our right of way, and mandatory criminal charges for taking a life.
Mandy - I don't have it right in front of me, but I believe she died of internal injuries, chest and back. Head injuries were not mentioned.
I only did 40 minutes of a 60 minute Cathe dvd yesterday, and ate too much again grrr. I am running late today so I HOPE to work out this afternoon when I get home from work.
Mandy and Tammy - great point about no one saying 'hey, time to sell your car/plane/bus/' etc. And the State of Missouri is close to passing a bill -
SCS/SB 202 - This act provides that operating a motorcycle, in and of
itself, shall not be considered evidence of comparative negligence. The
act also provides that when investigating an accident or settling an
automobile insurance policy claim, no insurer, agent, producer, or claims
adjuster of an insurer shall assign a percentage of fault to a party based
upon the sole fact that the party was operating a motorcycle in an
otherwise legal manner. This provision is similar to SB 505 (2007).
this seems elementary to us but that is the 'they were at fault because they chose to ride a motorcycle'.
gotta run!!! ttyl
