Cyclist vs Motorbike...... court case - interesting read

[goldfazer]

Oh go on then Bert - I have music in me ears when riding alone. At a 'sensible' volume. And guess what - I can hear more than without, as the 'plugin' earphones stop the wind noise which as motorcyclists we all know can be quite loud.

And I can certainly hear more than when I'm in me nice soundproofed Saab

Now if I spent 5k on a car stero and turned it up, would I hear a car, or even an ambulance' siren....

So not as obviously bad as you might think. He just didn't look.
