i'd sympathize but just about every accident except getting rearended while at a stop is avoidable.

in 10 years of FC ownership i have only been hit once, at about 2mph from the rear while someone thought i was going when i was just nudging forward to check out a gap in traffic at a stop. having a fast car and fast bike you have more maneuverability to stop quicker, accelerate quicker and generally just get yourself out of a bad situation, i feel much safer in my FC than i do in the 4k pound mercedes.

i even check cross traffic before entering an intersection on a green (to me) light. i do whatever i need to to rule out the other idiots on the road from trying to kill me and possibly succeeding(you only have to glance, not like you have to stop).
