Wear proper clothes when driving!
Post Body

Hi, a few days ago I made a post about getting a drivers license, well today I crashed. Fortunately I was driving at low speeds and I had all my motorcycle gear on me. If I wore normal shoes I’d probably have to go to the hospital and get my foot fixed, if I wouldn’t wear my motorcycle pants my whole left leg would be bleeding and my kneecap would be probably broken, if I didn’t wear my motorcycle jacket, my stomach and chest would be bleeding, if I didn’t wear motorcycle gloves I would not be able to write this post, if I wasn’t wearing my helmet, who knows what could happen.

I crashed with a speed of about 25 kmh, I was driving through a roundabout and didn’t see some gravel on the asphalt, I drove over it and my bike slipped, without any of my protective gear I would probably be severely hurt, but my left shoulder is all that hurts, and it hurts a lot. My left leg was stuck under my bike. My left shoe got a few scratches, but my foot isn’t broken.

Guys, wear your gear, even if it’s making you hot or that it doesn’t make you look cool. When you make contact with the ground at even lower speeds it will hurt. Stay safe and ride safe.

Edit: sorry for venting
