Interesting read. Didn't know she's into motorcycle. Could be a powerful ally to push for safety awareness.

“When you’re on a motorcycle, it feels like you’re really driving, because each hand is doing something, each foot is doing something, so you’re totally in tune. It isn’t like steering a car that’s automatic; when you’re on a motorcycle you’re shifting, you’re watching the RPMs.”
And forget about distracted driving, she adds.
“You have to make sure that other people don’t make mistakes — not only don’t you make mistakes, but you have to watch for when other people don’t see you. Or they swerve around, or they’re talking on the phone and don’t see you; you have to watch out for them.”
