    I just read about a new 'Air Bag' suit for motorcyclists that works by radio sensing the distance the rider is from the bike...

    I so want to be there to see the first person wearing one who pops to the news agents and forgets to deactivate it.

    ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

    theres one that relies on a tag being attached to a cable to the bike, kinda like a parachute and people have forgotten to remove the tag before getting off the bike

    Apparently getting off the bike and forgetting to detatch the cord isnt sufficient force to activate the airbag so I have heard. I believe they are bringing out airbag jackets as well.
    I am all for the idea sure the system will get better over time as with most things.
