Motorcyclist in accident asks drivers to be careful

To the Editor:

Late Tuesday afternoon, my girlfriend and I were ran into and knocked down by a confused, inattentive driver while riding my Harley.

I would like to urge everybody to please pay attention when you’re out in your larger and heavier vehicles.

This could have been a kid on a bicycle. Hey, just share the road. It’s not hard to do.

I would also like to thank the Libby police and ambulance. They were on site within minutes and were courteous and professional beyond reproach.

One last point. Not every bike out there is a new one with turn signals. Watch for the hand signals. This is legal and should be observed just like a light.
