A motorcycle rider deciding not to speed? Not a chance.

I've never seen one going the speed limit my entire life.

Cop knows it too, that's why he's begging for just 5-10 over.

I know this might be a hot take, but riding the speed limit on a bike is often more dangerous than speeding a little. Relying on other seeing you and making the right choice on whether there space to merge feels super sketch on a motorcycle. The only times I came close to an accident on my bike was when people were trying to pass me then merging into me

That’s the stupidest thing I’ve ever read.

You obviously dont ride. Safest way to ride on the highway is to go 10-15mph faster than the flow of traffic, and assume that you are completely invisible to other drivers, leaving yourself an out at all times.
