Motorcycle Safety PSA....
Found this on YouTube.com
I can't believe we're not running something like this here in the USA.
This has the same shock value that VW is using in their commercials ...to sell their cars.

That is our worst nightmare.
I wish they would post an add in the U.S. like that one. Who know how many people we could save. How many families?
That could become an obtainable objective if a group of people, lobbied or invested in the campaign.
If enough people with a common interest, pooled some resources...........
A group like us maybee............

I can just picture the news article here in the US:
MOTORCYCLIST INJURED IN CRASH
(Watsontown, PA) 37-year old Todd Diefenderfer was injured in a motorcycle crash on Wednesday. Diefenderfer attempted to pass a horse-drawn buggy on the White Deer Pike at a high rate of speed and lost control of his 2006 Yamaha.
Diefenderfer sustained abrasion injuries over 80% of his body due to his being completely naked. EMS workers commented that as he was loaded into the ambulance he was heard to mumble, "I just wanted to make sure they would notice me." Diefenderfer was wearing a helmet.
Anyone having information on the whereabouts of a small, black terrier dog wearing a red collar which was at the scene of the crash, please contact Sisters of Mercy Hospital. Mr Diefenderfer would like his testicles back.

Great find Dave. Think it would be in all of our best interests to forward that to our local, state and federal representatives and demand it be given attention.
