Russia seems pretty damn confused about whether the future is oil or not, or rather just in denial about oil NOT being the future.

    It refers to the fact that driving motorcycles around cars is extremely dangerous. Driver’s often ignore motorcycles and loud pipes are the one thing that keep a lot of motorcyclists from being run over.

        I am a bit of a seasoned driver and I grew up in the Seattle area. I have had a number of close calls and the motorcycles being loud was 100% a protective factor.

        You can pretend whatever you want, but clearly I can’t agree with you.

        I am pretty sure you said

        “Loud pipes save the lives of the people driving around on them, mostly, so not sure that’s a good argument”

        Save the lives of people driving around them is not what loud pipes save lives means. I was just pointing that out. Cheers!
