Don't assume cause you have a slow down indicator (flashing yellow light) vs. having a stop indicator (flashing red light) that the crossing traffic is actually going to treat it as a stop sign.

People are stupid! The individuals who caused these fatals had been driving for several years and thought a flashing red light meant proceed with "more" caution vs. actually having to stop (Unbelievable!). If this is your first bike please don't assume other drivers have common sense knowledge of road rules.

You law enforcement? I was for 8 years. Seen my share of MC fatalities also.
