Granny Herald will do anything to sell dead trees, so we have the following headline.
Motorcyclists more often to blame for crashes
When the story is read and digested, I find the figures speak for themselves.
* Vehicles at fault
(crashes involving motorcycles in Auckland City):
2004: 6 scooter, 7 motorcycle - 69 per cent
2005: 4 scooter, 12 motorcycle - 76 per cent
2006: 8 scooter, 12 motorcycle - 74 per cent
2007: 8 scooter, 14 motorcycle - 69 per cent
2008: 9 scooter, 16 motorcycle - 61 per cent
It is patently clear that the kamikaze temporary New Zealanders on step-through scooters are the leading cause of fault in two wheeled riders, not motorcyclists. Ban them and their suicidal riders!
Anything for a headline. Spam journalism.

Don't ban them- people need those organs!
