Most dangerous time of day to ride?
#7
I've noticed here in Phoenix that motorcycle crashes tend to occur early, just as the morning rush is starting. That's a time when speeds are still high enough to do serious damage, coupled with a lot of traffic joining the flow. Not to mention generally groggy, distracted drivers.

My work buddy tasted pavement twice in a year's time (before deciding to turn in his helmet). Both times it was on the way into work at around 6:30 AM. Also, both times he was in the HOV lane moving considerably faster than adjoining traffic when a car suddenly shot left into his lane.
