Here it is usually a left turning vehicle that 'didn't see' the motorcycle. I'd guess that would translate to right turns. I wonder if anyone has ever checked the frequency numbers for left and right drive?

That would be interesting to have a look at the stats. I was driving behind a few Harley's this morning, stopped at a light and they were in their full leathers in this heat of 30 degrees.
I don't know how they do it, but I guess the second skin is worth how uncomfortable that must become.
I wore leathers when that's all there was-Now I wear Kevlar and Ballistic Nylon, it's a lot cooler and only gives up a small percentage of slide resistance. I have a pair of blue jeans that have knee pads and kevlar patches in the probable spots. It's the best overall solution that I've found.
Road rash is a terrible thing to experience, and leather slides really well.
