Kill A Biker – Go To Jail!

Kill A Biker - Go To Jail. We in the biker and motorcycle community have heard this term many times. As a matter of fact we have also seen stickers with this term on it.
Many of us advocate harsh punishment for negligent cagers who hit us or cut us off while we are riding our motorcycles, because most of these types of motorcycle accidents can be prevented simply by cagers paying more attention while they are driving, and looking out for bikers and motorcyclist.
Most bikers and motorcyclist advocate severe punishments for cagers who intentionally hit us or cut us off, or hit us while the cager is intoxicated, because we bikers and motorcyclist unlike people riding in cages have only our clothes, and helmets for safety. We are the most venerable to severe and catastrophic injuries due to cagers hitting us.
With the above being said, I have sometimes read reports throughout the nation of cagers being adequately punished for their deeds against bikers, but most often it seems to me that cagers who hit bikers and motorcyclist get off too easy. In the end there is no real adequate punishment for some idiot who kills a biker simply because they decided to make a cell phone call! Anyway………..
I recently read a report of a 49 year old idiot named Mark Henderson who got the just punishment he deserves for hitting and killing a 19 year old Rebecca Seibenmorgen who was simply riding her motorcycle on California Highway 1, near Half Moon Bay, south of San Francisco.
Henderson was convicted of 2nd Degree Murder, and sentenced to 35 years to life for his role in hitting Seibenmorgen head on and killing her.
Let this be a warning to all cagers who think that they will just simply walk here in California when they hit a biker; the law is not messing around anymore. To read a newspaper report in Clutch & Chrome - Motorcycle News about this incident click here now.[/align][/align]
