Is your driving impeccable in all areas?

I would wager it isn't, I would also argue that as I haven't killed anyone, and I presume you haven't, that the odds are fairly equal on us both potentially killing some one.

Of course you would ,Your assesment of the conditions at any given time are not the same as other road users .You will continue to drive/ride as fast as you can without any concideration for other road users untill you either kill yourself or more importantly someone else
My assessment may be better than some other road users, also explain to me how driving to the conditions and adapting my driving to suit those conditions is not considerate to other road users.

Although I drive at speed sometimes I am always considerate to other road users, if only other road users were considerate to motorcyclists - how safer the roads would be then
