Makes you wonder what ABATE thinks about existing laws that increase fines for
speeding in a road construction zone. Should they be appealed because they
seem to value one type of person by the roadside, a construction worker, more
than others?

Subject: [Bikies] Vulnerable User law in WiSJ
This week's feature on legislature up for a vote is about the Vulnerable User
Law.
http://host.madison.com/wsj/news/local/govt-and-politics/at-issue-vulnerable-highway-users/article_1a9a008b-feb8-554c-a083-9ecd0648c882.html
So far there are no comments, and I'm hesitant to read any if they do appear.
I am sort of peeved that ABATE - a group that I don't think represents the
majority of motorcyclists, and seems to exist mostly to lobby against helmet
laws - has come out so strongly against the law.
There are lots of user groups that would benefit from this law, but few have an
organization. Where is the farm community or reasonable motorcyclists? Utility
workers? Equestrians?
