Hi WW,
Yes. Things have changed.

What happened is someone smelled money.

The test costs $250. That's something on the order of 10,000 riders a
year in California paying $250. Big bucks.

For that $250, you get to buy your license.

It's not any more complicated than that. Just as simple as your test,
except the tens of millions of dollars funneled into MSF coffers.

Even Arnold funneled his $250 into the MSF coffers (not that it will make
a dent in his net worth) ... but the point is that even he fell prey to
his own system. How ironic.

He wasn't. The prices in California vary depending on who's putting
on the class. The *maximum* charge can be $250, but many schools offer
the basic class for $150.

Don't you *ever* get tired of lying?

As Tim pointed out very carefully -and repeatedly- the MSF doesn't get
*any* of the money. It goes to the individual schools/organizations
that teach the safety classes, and it just about covers their
expenses.

And you don't seem to understand that nobody is *ever* going to
respect the judgement of someone who spends all his time intentionally
lying.

Except the MSF isn't charging California student riders to take the
course, the California Motorcyclist Safety Program, administered by
the California Highway Patrol, charges California student riders to
take the course. The money goes to the state of California to cover
the costs of administering the classes.

course, the California Motorcyclist Safety Program, administered by
the California Highway Patrol, charges California student riders to
take the course. The money goes to the state of California to cover

It's not nitpicking to correct your completely bogus claim that the
MSF is running motorcycle training classes for profit in California.

The test does NOT cost $250 dollars. The California Motorcyclist
Safety Program's basic rider course costs $250.

Twitbull amused us with the following bit of irony:

> Don't you *ever* get tired of lying?


So whines the psychotic nut job who lies about peoples' deceased
mothers while hiding and cowering behind its killfile - and it
spews its **** brained lies only because it was challenged to
read, think, and defend its impossible 9-11 cartoon fairy tale.
twitbull, if nothing else, your cowardice, lies, hypocrisy, and
simple minded insanity do keep us slightly amused... ;-)

Right - you shouldn't be looking there, you don't NEED to be looking
there, so the whole question of whether or not "you can see the lines
under the wheels" is irrelevant.

Find yourself a big ol' slab o' asphalt with an understanding owner.
Paint yourself a circle - whatever radius you feel comfortable
with - such that you have a 2' wide circular path. You think you
need to see what's under the wheels to stay within the paint?
