Insurance on a dirt bike is dirt cheap, three bucks a month in some cases. That's a small price to pay, not to mention if something happens while on one and your found to be liable for injuries and damages........
Going down happens to everyone at some point in time if you ride long enough. Sorry, to hear about this. Glad you made it out in one piece. Get well soon.
Not surprised. There was a lady that did the same thing a few years back but she had a whole body stuck in her windshield. She drove home and parked it in the garage and called it a day. http://www.highbeam.com/doc/1P2-275676.html
New rules went into effect in March of 2007. For example you can carry in your car on your hip. They did away with the plain sight stipulation. The only drawback to open carry is the fact that people would probably freak out and call the police.
