Comment Re:difference between driver and passenger? (Score 2) 364

I cover the motorcycle horn with my thumb. If I don't think of pushing it, a sudden move by a car will make me grip the handlebars tighter, triggering the horn.

The High beam is also a finger trigger on this bike, sometimes I cover that too, which means I flash the driver as well; think of someone inching forward to make a right turn on a light, I tense a little and the high beam comes on.

Seeing how I don't subscribe to loud pipes save lives, most people cut me slack if I hit the horn.

Of course no learned person believed it, but on the other hand over a hundred years in 1633 later Galileo gets tried for supporting the Heliocentric model.

What someone believed, vrs what one would say publicly, was very different at the time. After all, no one expects the Spanish Inquisition!
