Motorcycle Efficiency vs. Car Efficiency Our environment is an extremely important part of our world. I have chosen the topic of motorcycles efficiency verse a cars efficiency because I believe that people need to know what they are doing to the environment and be aware of pollution rates that they’re choice of transportation creates. In this paper I will be discussing the importance of my topic and why people should choose a motorcycle over a car. I will be examining how and why motorcycles are more efficient than cars.
I feel that elderly people should not be allowed to drive under certain circumstances. If a person loses the ability to properly operate a motor vehicle based on the functions of their reflexes, memory, visual acuity, flexibility and the ability to focus that person should not be allowed to drive on the open road; putting innocent lives at risk. Having a license to drive would be considered a privilege; and it should not be taken advantage of or abused. I believe its commonly recognized in drivers that turns 70, risk increases greatly and grows higher after turning 85. Elderly drivers are at higher risk of injury and death when involved in a crash because they are least likely to withstand trauma.
Freedom of Choice Thesis: The current helmet law in Kentucky should be revised for riders with their license who are under the age of 21 because it is discriminatory, as it targets age rather than the abilities of a motorcyclist, the unfair restrictions of motorcyclists versus automobile drivers, and helmets are uncomfortable and can be dangerous to the operator of a motorcycle.

There is a lot of research that supports the benefits of wearing this safety device yet many riders don’t use them and in many countries around the world it is not compulsory to wear bicycle helmets when riding a bicycle. Given the opposing views around the benefits of the use of bicycle safety helmets it raises the question, should helmets be optional when riding a bike? A helmet has three key elements, a shell, a liner, and a buckle and straps. These days a helmet is constructed of a lightweight plastic, Lexan or fibreglass outer shell which varies in thicknesses depending on the users preference, a thick protective liner made out of stiff polystyrene Styrofoam, this is a non-springy foam that does not bounce back at your head. Then an inner liner, which is just, spongy foam added for comfort but absorbs very little shock in a life threating crash.
If I crash my jeep and die, I do not want anyone held accountable for my actions. The question pertaining to seatbelts is the restraint of freedom by the government. What role should the government play in saving a life, as it is often portrayed as a life issue? Another aspect of the issue is the economical issue or cost of responsibility to society. My question concerning the life issue is who asked u to save mine?
If some people use the representativeness heuristic, based on this description, they may assume that this man is more likely to own a motorcycle. This occurs since the description is more representative of motorcycle owners. Availability Heuristic: Tendency to judge the frequency of an event by the ease with which it comes to mind You will be unlikely to get a flu shot, if someone you know gets ill from the shot, even if research show that is harmless. In fact, if you hear in the news that some people are dying from the flu shot, that one incident could scare you and keep you from ever getting the flu shot. It’s just easier to accept something as true if you are giving examples.
The reason is that, everything that has an effect toward your partner has to be done carefully and smoothly to avoid any harm on the other side. Driving, as a contradiction of what most of the people think driving is, it is a very dangerous and risky thing ever. Not only because it is performed with mechanical equipment which has no total insurance of delivering whatever is needed anytime, but also performed with a human who is more fragile and has much in his head. While driving, you have two things in your hands, your life and the life of others who are using either the same road or its side. Anytime you make a mistake it can affect your life and their lives too.
Taking advantage of these extra lanes for cyclists not only aides in economic situations and transportation needs but will prove beneficial for the health and wellness of Edmond’s citizens. The lanes created by the city will encourage people of all ages to get out of the house and exercise.

With more people riding bicycles, the amount of carbon monoxide and other harmful emissions released in the atmosphere will be decreased. I began this editorial with a grim story to bring attention to the seriousness of my topic’s nature.
The major reason for accidents is speeding and smart cars would warn the drivers when they are going too fast and tell them to break. Traffic would also be greatly reduced because the driver would know which roads have heavy traffic and they would avoid them. 2.

It is believed that actively using a cell phone while driving increases the likelihood of an accident by as much as four times the rate as those who do not use a cell phone. Drivers are paying less attention to the other vehicles and pedestrians around them thereby endangering not only their lives but also the lives of those individuals caught in their path. As such the use of a cell phone while operating a motor vehicle should be restricted. Legislation needs to be passed which would help curb the widespread use of cell phones in vehicles. To date legislators have won the fight to protect our children from such negligent individuals who choose to endanger their lives and the lives of other around them; however further action needs to be taken.
