Re: Thanks for the Opportunity to Expand on Previous Post - We Need to Lobby Our MROs and NHTSA to T
Ray,
You answered my question with professionalism. But I have to tell you that I'm sitting here in a massive stupor. I can't believe (not that I doubt your word) that the MRF, MSF, ABATE, and the AMA haven't used this information to their fullest advantage.
Let me understand this, you provided them with this information and all they've done so far is sit on their thumbs. Well sir, here lies the answer to Bruce's question. Here lies the plan of approach. We MUST get these individual groups to utilize this information on our behalf. We must also question their reluctance to use it in our battle against highway deaths. These organizations want our money, our loyalty, and our membership, but yet they don't want to use this information to help save lives! Not acceptable.
I think what we need to do, is a mass emailing, phone calling campaign that lets these folks know that we expect them to represent us in this fight, and anything that can be used to secure a victory must be used, and if they don't want to take this information to State, and Federal organizations on our behalf, then we as members of these various organizations will refrain from continuing to be members. It seems to me that their refusal to take the information you've provided to the powers to be, is nothing short of flat out lies regarding they're concern about our welfare. How many more of us have to die before our so called motorcycle rights advocates stand up and do whats right.
My next move is to call and email all of the organizations listed, and demand that the information you've provided them be used in soliciting new regulations, or they can count on my leaving their organization as a member.
No wonder nothing gets done.
Thanks Ray for your diligent work.
