It may be, it could be, it might just be motorcycle riding weather soon. For the hardest of the hard core, it already is. But many riders still have their bikes in the garages and are waiting for warmer days.
You can help prevent car-motorcycle accidents and near-misses by following the alert by IDOT in the form of a large, yellow banner reading, "Start Seeing Motorcycles."
Many motorcycle operators ride responsibly; after all, they get hurt the most in event of a collision with a car or truck. Yes, there are some out there who think they are Evel Knievel, but most ride on the careful side.
So, please don't just "watch" them; see them. Many of them ride defensively. It's a good idea to do the same thing.
