My wife got a letter from DMV today. It told her that there has been such an increase in motorcycle fatalities in Oregon, that the Governor put together a council of some type to look into why. The letter said that as a result of the council study, the majority of single vehicle motorcycle fatalities were of riders that did not have a motorcycle endorsement. It then told her that she should consider taking an MSF course and obtain her endorsement.
I thought to myself that was pretty cool, DMV and the Governor were encouraging my wife to start riding and to get an endorsement. Then I remembered, my FJR is registered and titled to my wife, but she does not ride (except as a passenger). The big brother part was when the letter explained that "a search of Oregon DMV records indicate you own a motorcycle, but do not have an endorsement."
It was a cooler letter when I thought they were trying to get her to ride.....
