About This Item

Look Twice

This coin is being released as part of the Todie's Wild Ride Bike Awareness Project initiated by Rockin Roddy in response to the death of his good friend Tod Phillips. On August 12, 2008, Tod was riding a motorcycle when he was killed in an accident caused by a left turning vehicle. Tod was one third of Team Rod & Tod w/KAboom. This coin is released in his memory and in memory of all motorcyclists killed on the road.

Not being a motorcyclist myself, I can only imagine the dangers that they face everyday. Part of the problem is that vehicle drivers (car, truck) don't fully understand the consequences of their actions on the road with regards to motorcycles. Cars and trucks share the road everyday with motorcyclist, bicyclist and pedestrian, yet seem to think that they deserve to be on the road above the others.

Please check your blind spots when driving. Check them TWICE. Someone life may depend on it.
