"Motorcycle accidents--"outsane""

 
Hello, John and Doves,
I'm listening to KNX AM [1070 AM--Los Angeles] at 9:10 am on 21 November 2017. There are four concurrent motorcycle accidents!!
Motorcycle drivers are marginally sane in the best of times--going 25 mph in 5 mph traffic. But now, going 50 mph in 25 mph traffic means four times the energy, if that motorcycle should hit some stopped vehicle.
K.E. = (1/2)mv^2
[Kinetic energy equals one half of the mass in motion, multiplied by the square of its velocity.
Ignorance can prove harmful, even lethal. As someone noted 32 years ago, the specific influence of the Holy Spirit is being taken away from those who consistently shun His wisdom.
Unfortunately, the world is chock-a-block full of people who think they can outfox other people's mistakes in the exact same circumstances--in real time.
Let us pray for our neighbors who are woefully misinformed as to their own vulnerabilities!
Note: "outsane" means "out-of-this-world insane."
~Blessings,
Mike
