+1. They're not called "donorcycles" for no reason.

Edited to add: I do realise this is because from the motorcyclist's perspective, the average car driver is a dangerous moron. That doesn't change the stats.

Motorcycles aren't dangerous. Cars are dangerous.

Particularly for people riding motorcycles.
