> Let’s be clear. The issue isn’t “dirt bikes”. Because this very thing can happen with street legal bikes

Sure, a street legal bike can be crashed but a street legal bike needs to have headlights. So 🤷‍♀️

Driving your street legal bike at night with the lights off. Or if they aren’t working at all. Is the same effect. Same thing can happen with a car. THAT is the reckless part.

Off road vehicles have headlights too. They don’t have turn signals. But that’s not the issue.

RECKLESSNESS is the root cause here.

lol idk why you’re arguing completely against headlights. Maybe it can be both?! I certainly know an illegal bike without legal lights didn’t help the situation that played out the other night. I think we can agree on that.

Edit: obviously these two dead people were being reckless idiots. Saying the bike isn’t the issue is also flatly wrong
