Nah! Many years ago - about 1964 I think - I bought a Yamaha 80CC bike that had a driver's safety manual in it's side cover. I can remember a few of the lines in it, that for safety sake, one was supposed to read and at least heed.

One in particular stood out and still does: 'Beware of mud puddle, for therein lies the skid demon".

The rest are somewhat Alzheimer'd away by now. 		SurferJoe46 (51)
