Mathematically they're equivalent, but the feelings could not be further apart.

Until, abruptly, you aren't.
Probably because of a shitty driver or tesla autopilot: https://youtu.be/yRdzIs4FJJg?si=0Px9muIop5hXKBcC
Speaking from experience, the former is extremely likely. Given the increase in sociopathic driving, I'll not be riding on slabs again anytime soon. I really don't want to get hit by another truck.

Every motorcycle driver I've ever encountered was a shitty driver. They all do dangerous shit for no reason beyond their thrills and act like complete dicks on the road.
Sad, but true
Just assume you are invisible and that all the other vehicles will do the worst likely thing, and you might be alright.
When I rode I went beyond being invisible to just imagining they are all actively targeting me, and making sure I didn't give them a chance.
You targeted them first?
Motorcycle licences should come with an organ donor registration card
At least in my state all drivers license applications do.
Same with my state. Also with voter registration update reminders. Oregon really takes its voting seriously.
Yeah, I changed to automatic registration after voters voted yes to voting. Now you have to explicitly state you don't want to be registered if you don't, and any drivers license or ID related paperwork automatically registers you or updates your registration as needed.
Weirdly, passing a bunch of voter equity legislation initiated by the voters shortly resulted in a change in legislative makeup that better represented voters, and is weirdly more in favor of voting rights.
Crazy how that works.
Holy fucking based
In my country everyone (literally everyone) is an organ donor by default. You can opt out instead of opting in.
