Quotes

"i believe there's a certain segment of the population that will follow the law simply because it is a law. you can use our seatbelt laws in comparison. about 79 percent of the population follows them" said John LeBlanc, executive director of the Highway Safety Commission
"these people cannot afford to pay the rates they are talking about" said Leblanc
...We've also made gains in lowering the number of alcohol-related crash fatalities," LeBlanc said. "we believe that greater public awareness of the dangers of drunken driving, and drivers and passengers taking other safety procedures, have played a role in saving hundreds of lives."
"Operator training, proper use of safety equipment and keeping sober are key factors in motorcycle safety," LeBlanc said. "also very important is that drivers of other vehicles be aware and respectful of motorcycles that are sharing the road."
